    Rinsed? No idea. I'd say you can probably still wear them in nicely, i.e. don't wash them.

    What's the worst that can happen?

    I don't know what any of you are talking about. But if you wash your jeans with a little vinegar in the wash machine, it will set the color and wont bleed or lose its color as much over time. Way off?..

    btw that is pretty gross to not wash a pair of jeans for 6 months.

    the only reason is since its raw denim (aka unwashed), the special colors and effects of the dyes gets washed out if you wash them, which is the reason you bought them in the first place - the different indigo color! after you wear them air them out on a balcony to air. that said if you are a fat sweaty pig, go to the gym *** and dont wear raw denim. I have a pair of G-Star raw jeans i haven't washed in over 6 months and amazingly they don't smell...

    i have a pair of apc raw denim that i havent washed in 6 months they dont smell. the trick is to put them in the freezer at night haha. but ya the dye is not set in so u wear them for six months to break down the dye wear your legs naturally crease the jeans then when you wazsh them it sets the wear pattern in stone basically so it looks super cool and pretty much becomes part of your body in a way, its kinda like a skin

    I can vouch that A Love's unwashed jeans, and come to think of it, G Frank's as well, do not stink and are never icky looking. As the wifey, and having met the roommate, we would not stand for it if they did. However, having a man with more refined taste in denim than you is unsettling at times.
