Jeans Nudie Jeans Steady Eddie II Selvage - Blue - 30

'Dry' refers to the denim being in its raw, untreated state, without any washing or finishing. 'Selvedge' refers to the woven edge of the fabric, typically with a distinct red or orange line, which prevents fraying and is a mark of quality denim construction.

The break-in period is highly personal but Nudie Jeans recommends wearing them for at least 6 months of daily use before the first wash to develop unique fades. The denim will gradually soften and conform to your body.

While possible, it is not recommended for the initial stages. If you must wash, use a cold wash cycle, turn the jeans inside out, use minimal mild detergent, and always air dry. Avoid machine drying.

The Steady Eddie II features a regular tapered fit. This means it has a comfortable rise and room through the seat and thigh, tapering down to a narrower leg opening.

The orange thread, along with the orange split line on the selvedge edge, is a distinctive design feature exclusive to Nudie Jeans, adding a signature mark of authenticity and style.

Dry denim can shrink, especially with hot water or machine drying. Washing in cold water and air drying minimizes shrinkage and helps maintain the intended fit and developed fades.

This is normal for dry selvedge denim. Continue wearing them daily. The denim will soften and mold to your body shape with wear.

Nudie Jeans recommends waiting at least 6 months of daily wear before the first wash to achieve optimal fading. Observe the jeans for signs of wear and personal customization before washing.

For minor spills, try spot cleaning with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the entire garment before the recommended first wash.

Uneven fading is a natural part of the break-in process for dry denim and contributes to the unique character of the jeans. Continue wearing them to develop more uniform patterns over time.
