This wasn't nearly as helpful as I was expecting. The fact that Sanforized wasn't even mentioned was quite surprising, as this is a very important consideration, a "must know" in my book. Also, going "one size down" is conditional on various factors. Telling people to do this as a "thing to know" in jeans purchasing is misleading.
I believe, practically, the most important difference is whether the yarn used to weave the denim is ring-spun or open-card. However I don't know how to discern them and I noticed that manufacturers don't seem to bother to say whether it is ring-spun or open-card.
Most sources say size up now your telling me to size down? The methods of buying raw denim are so contradicting to each other. I would take your advice and size down tho. Sounds logical since the fabric stretches. You’ll wear them more than you wash them, which shrinks when you do, so that advice sounds more accurate.
it really depends if you are buying Unsanforized denim or Sanforized denim. If you are buying Unsanforized denim, and you size down, it will shrink a size down more because Unsanforized is completely unshrunk. And you may not even be able to put them all. I would suggest always check the Raw measurements and One Wash measurements and compare and see what size you should be at.
They add It to help with the manufacture of jeans using raw denim, It stiffens the fabric. Raw denim Is unsanforised and will shrink when hot soaked/washed.
sanguis malus that's incorrect. sanforization and being raw is independent of each other. raw (generally) means that the fabric has not gone through any washing process. although lately, it seems to mean that it has had minimal was instead since many considers one wash raw to still be raw denim.
clarissa to you as a consumer, starched denim (when it comes to raw denim) will help set the initial creases for future fades, but it also means that the pants will feel more rough and stiff than an unstarched pair until it breaks in.
12 oz is about normal a heavier weight is better for winter as it's thicker and warmer. it has a much longer break in period, fades more slowly, but when it fades, usually supplies a much higher contrast, more beautiful fade a lighter weight denim is cooler for the summer months, they are easier to break in, and are faster fading, but may not get the greatest of fades, they usually wont last as long. most jeans are about 10-13 oz (ish). most denim heads that I've seen wear heavier weights like 14 to even 21 oz denim, because the fades are usually a lot nicer in my opinion. personally i have a pair of 12.5 oz and 14.5 oz. my next pair is probably going to be either 16 or 21, depending on what goes on sale quicker lol. theres a compromise no matter what, just depends what you want. i hope that helped
The weight of denim measured by how much a square yard of the denim used to make the garment weighs. So 12 ounce jeans would mean that one square yard of the denim used to make the jean weighs 12 ounces.

Where do I buy denim to make my own pants?
What do you mean size down? In width or length? Or both?
Troy Cabrera width
Both
can you tell me more on starched denim and what that really means? The part was very quick, would make a similar video with more details?

maverickmage no, one wash Is not raw. You are wrong, simple as.
Also, what are you on about. I never said raw was the same as sanforised.
How do I find his manufacturer?

Nice video!
which one is good between selvedge 17 oz or 16 or 12?what makes different between 12..14..16..or 17oz?
That's the gauge or think of it as the weight of the yarn used. For example a pair of Levi 511's might be in the 7-9oz mark.
12 oz is about normal
a heavier weight is better for winter as it's thicker and warmer. it has a much longer break in period, fades more slowly, but when it fades, usually supplies a much higher contrast, more beautiful fade
a lighter weight denim is cooler for the summer months, they are easier to break in, and are faster fading, but may not get the greatest of fades, they usually wont last as long.
most jeans are about 10-13 oz (ish). most denim heads that I've seen wear heavier weights like 14 to even 21 oz denim, because the fades are usually a lot nicer in my opinion. personally i have a pair of 12.5 oz and 14.5 oz. my next pair is probably going to be either 16 or 21, depending on what goes on sale quicker lol. theres a compromise no matter what, just depends what you want.

@@MrDevgames where do you get these jeans from? any particular brand to look for?
Must suck not knowing how to sew;)
HELP, where do I buy premium quality denim on line. I'm sick of expensive bad fitting jeans made from bad denim. I'm making my own.
This wasn't informative enough in my opinion he didn't even talk about open end yarn and ring yarn denims
