Any special reason you washed it after 3 years, or was it the "right time"? Spilled something?

I'm new to the whole raw denim scene, planning to buy my first pair of nudie probably either in slim jims or regular alf bootcut. My question is, how much do they stretch and what size should i size down to if I'm a size 30. TIA!

They'll stretch 2inches-ish within 6 months with heavy wearage.

i wore em in sweating hot conditions, disguisting cigarette asian filled clubs. everything.
just air em out and they're fine. i washed mine after 3 years cuz i thought it was time. they probably wouldnt fade that much more and the pockets were getting destroyed lol.

I spilled ketchup around the crotch area of my ironhearts. I tried wiping it off with a wet cloth but after it dried the stain turned kinda white and made it look like a jizz stain.

Ive had my ironhearts for 8 months only, and I dont plan on washing them either. Ive been wearing them at clubs ect too, and in hot 30 degree+ days in summer.
I had a rice stain that turned into a "jizz" stain too, but it looks ok now.

Well I have 2 pair of Nudies and I was planning to buy another pair but on second thought. I think I'm going to invest in a pair of N&F. Is there a huge size difference between N&F vs Nudies? I wear 30 waist and 34 length for Nudies..help pls =D

Naked & Famous > Nudies | I know nudies are not the best jeans out there compared to NF and IronHearts as some of you guys mentioned. I'm only getting a pair because I've never own of raw denim before so i'm gonna give these a try.
Whats wrong with bootcut raw denims?

Don't do it. I had Nudies for a week before I changed my mind and bought my APCs.
And then a few months after I went for Somets because I felt that the APCs were a bit flimsy.
Get a good high quality pair that will last you so you won't have any regrets or the itch to upgrade or get something better. Invest in stuff like Skulls, Samurai, Flat Head, Iron Heart, Somet. Do some research and buy a pair that you'll love and you won't have to buy again for a loooooong time.

Nothings "wrong" with bootcut. Its just your preference.
To me, straight leg looks fine. Bootcuts leg openings are too big and sloppy for my taste.

style changes all the time.
if you like bootcut then get bootcut.
5 years ago people were wearing fat ties, now they're wearing skinny ties, and fat ties will definitely make a comeback and people will think skinny ties are out of style.
same with jacket lapels, same with jean cuts

Wearing a pair of Naked and Famous X Loveless for ...3 weeks or so, love them. I tried on apcs and really they didn't feel better then my old pair of weird guys which resulted in me purchasing another pair. I don't know if anyone ever answered the question on sizing for N&F vs. Nudies but my nudies are size 29 and my N&F are size 30. It seems like most people don't wash even if they dropped something on themselves. I ended up having to wash my first weird guys after dropping bubble tea on them==.
