THE 15 BEST PAIRS OF WASHED DENIM FOR WINTER 2010

As much as we extol the virtues of buying raw denim, we know a good number of you don’t have the time or patience to slowly turn a pair of jeans into your own personal tapestry. That’s cool, we love pre-washed denim just as much. There are just so many options. Each brand has their own unique methods of achieving that worn in look. On top of that, there are varying levels of washed—you can get them completely washed out to the point the indigo is absent at some parts, or you can get a pair that’s just been delicately distressed. The choice is yours. To help you make that choice, we picked our 15 favorite pairs of washed denim available this winter.
