Brand Focus: Nudie Jeans
Nudie have a range of different styles which all come in a number of different washes. Their jeans vary from a loose straight fit to a skinny narrow leg. Some of the most popular styles are Slim Jim, Average Joe, Thin Finn and Big Bengt. These styles pretty much cover all the fit through the range and offer a number of different washes and finishes.
Nudie advise that with the unwashed raw jeans and salvage denim that you shouldn't wash them for 6 or more months! This is because the jeans can naturally loose colour with wear and when they are washed for the first time they will loose colour and fade in the more distressed areas of the jean. This in turn gives the wearer their very own individual wash on their jean and uniqueness to them. Jeans generally tend to faded more on the thighs, knees and pockets anyway as these are the greater stress areas and get worn against the most.
