    I used to own a bunch of them 15 years ago (Flathead, APC Studio D’Artisan) but hated how stiff they were, which made an office desk job (and long commutes) super uncomfortable. The indigo bleed on my footwear also sucked and badly-timed boners.

    I switched to Uniqlo’s raw denims and they’re much more practical and softer for daily use.

      They may be better now or I may just have different types. I have 4 pairs of naked and famous jeans and I love them. Some of them were stiff at first but softened up a lot after their first wash. They do bleed on my shoes for sure though.

      Yeah, raw denim is wildly impractical, I’m not personally a fan, but I think it’s helpful for people to get an idea of what people love about it.

      How have your Uniqlo raws been fading?
