If you want destroyed jeans, you have to earn them. Go free running and fall and scrape your knees. Go jump out of a car on the high way and get run over a few times.
People will think you are one bad-ass quadriplegic.

Place a block of wood (or some other solid surface that you don't mind possibly damaging) within the pant leg or denim region you want to distress.

Rub a steak knife or cheese grater vertically or horizontally against the area of denim that you would like to distress. Rub gently for mild distress; rub longer and more vigorously to create more visible distress (such as holes and tears). You could even cut holes if you really want to.

Fray jeans by rubbing sandpaper around pockets, knees, hemlines, or any other area of denim that you would like to have a soft, worn appearance.
Dampen a sponge with bleach and rub it around the outer edges of holes for a faded look.

Rip off a back pocket

Wash your jeans.

Wear your newly stylish distressed jeans.

There you go.

Hope I helped!

Well, actually I used an 'X-acto" knife thing thats used for cutting out pictures from magazines and stuff. You can get them at Wal Mart for resonably cheap.

I just used the blade and pushed it under each individual threadlike thing and it worked pretty good.

Hope I helped!
