  1. try not to wash them too much and when u do wash them inside out


  2. wash the jeans inside out

  3. turn them inside out and its best ifyou hand wash them

    plain black shirt will do.  

  4. my friend has them and what reall works great is a red tank under a black and white graphic tee  

  5. i dont know about the washing but i think you should wear a bright color on top like:

  6. Hey dope jeans.

    Those are really sweet.

    1) Preserving colour.

    Some people say you shouldn't wash them at all, and put them in the freezer to cut out the odour instead of washing them (a lot of denim brands, like Nudie, told GQ this was the best way to do it.) so go for it if you're risky.

    This is my way, though : hand wash them in your bath tub, inside out. It's the best (and cleanest!) way to keep the original wash.

    Let them soak for 15-30 minutes so that any loose sediment can be separated then add a small a amount of mild detergent. Swirl your jeans around for a few times, but be gentle so that you remove as little dye as possible. When you're done line dry your jeans so that they can shrink back and retain the hard texture they had when you bought them.

    2) Matching

    A black simple t-shirt or v-neck is a good idea. You can pair it with a lot of basics though, so if I was you I'd play with colours a bit.

    All these colours would look great. Personal favorites : mint, apricot and forest.

    A loose fitted tank-top would give this a stylish and casual feel. Personal favorites : Black, nude, mint, army. It looks better belted.

    A solid cardigan always looks nifty.

    Simple shirt, cheap, and coral looks awesome on any skin tone.

    A tunic looks effortlessly cool

    White schoolyard kicks...urban at its best.

    You can also pair it with boots, flats, heels, whatever!

    Hope I was helpful!
