what's uniqlo denim like compared to "proper" jean brands like levi?
>>10785959
I did it to one of my old H&M Jeans, they started off in a washed indigo color and ended up like pic related.
>how dillute?
I used 2l of Eau de Javele (2,5% NaClO) and 20 L of Water in a big bucket.
>Duration?
I can't remember exactly, maybe 1.5-2 h. I stirred every 10 minutes. I took them out after 1 h and rinsed them off, but was not content with the color, so i threw them in the bucket again. Don't do that, the color will not be even.
>Rinse or leave them dry?
I rinsed and washed them afterwards since the bleach smell was still very apparent.
>Other Tips
Pre-soak them for a more even distribution of the bleach.
You will NOT get the texture of stonewashed denim.
My pair is 100% Cotton, i don't know how synthetics handle it.
Do it in a well ventilated place.
Good luck /fa/m

uniqlo has like 4 different denim. the miracle air is very thin, feel like moleskin thin, but are the only with nice pale blue wash.
their other denim are thicker and on par with levis.

this shit right here
the updated fit is actually pretty slim, it kind of threw me off the first time i tried them on. and the vintage look is nearly unbeatable at that price.

Very true. I bought 501 medium stonewash and the fit is pretty nice and slim. I was very surprised.

>>not rinsing in vinegar after
It's like you don't know what you're doing kazoku
>>10786219
why the vinegar rinse?
>>10786228
Acids cancel out bases.
Less stinky.

Never do this, javel + vinegar = toxic gas
