Step 1: Bunch areas on old black (OR any deep, dark shade of denim) and pour a bit of Clorox on each. When you’re satisfied with the color, rinse off. Be aware that the clorox will soak through all layers.
Step 2: Sand the knees and fronts of the thighs with heavy grit paper
Step 3: Slice the areas you want ripped, and pick apart the fibers in the weave.
Step 4: Machine wash and dry twice.
