We say wear your denim for at least six months before you wash them. You've heard that one million and one times, and this is a recommendation for our dry denim. And the part about wearing dry jeans for at least six months is only to be taken as a suggestion if you want your jeans to get patina and a worn-in look. Breaking in a pair of jeans is an arduous task and not for everyone. That's why we also have pre-washed options. If you buy pre-washed denim, they have been washed during production and treated to resemble a worn in pair. So you can wash pre-washed denim whenever needed.
