I took my Cheap Mondays into Self Edge--a store that specializes in raw denim in San Francisco (and now in Portland)--and they fixed my raws! They made me wash them before I brought them in, and that brings them to 2 washes in 2 and a half years (3 years in January). They were a little tight getting back into them after the wash and the fix (and the patched spot feels a little like wearing a diaper) but they stretched back out in a couple of wears.
I'm excited to have them back!
