^Peak Ooe, congrats both on the pickup! 🙏

Unintended fourth wash and they surprisingly shrank a bit more especially in length and overall width despite being steady after washes 2 and 3. They actually fit quite perfect for me now though and tightened up in all the right places.

Personally putting a freeze on pretty much any superfluous spending at this point, unfortunately denim included. Though I'm sure we all have enough denim as is 😅

@shredwin_206 have you ever broken in Eternals or SDA? Some famously stubborn denim, I'd be curious to see what you could do to them 😆

Damn that's rich 🥲 I'm sure they're well worth it knowing the amount of development and small batch nature of everything from the fabric to the construction and details, and the fact that Ryo and Hiro deserve some coin at the end of the day. Congrats to who I'm pretty sure we all are thinking it is that bought them though, looking forward to the details and pictures 😂 Also, I can't complain given that I probably average a couple pairs a year which would add up to ~$500 realistically

So wait, did you get a pair in each of the Amoskeag fabrics? Well done if so, what I would've done as well

^Sad I missed out but I'm hopeful the Amoskeag fabrics will make it to another pair/cut soon, more readily available...

Sorry for the multi post, forgot this one: Some nice light blue hues coming through in certain lights which is always hard to pick up on camera

All you @Broark, looks great, hope you can get a hookup from Inspiration!: https://www.instagram.com/p/DIAvBvNTIPj/?img_index=1 Also new pair of 50's jeans: https://www.instagram.com/p/DIA43oDzRSZ/?img_index=1

^For me creasing set in quickly, but I'm also thinking my unintended extra wash from the get go (3 total at this point) helped ease things up because they weren't showing much wear until then. I was planning on holding out for as long as possible between washes for higher contrast, but now I'm thinking I'll just wash whenever/regularly since the creasing is set (and admittedly the faster these fade, the sooner I can get to my new Ooe's lol)

Every new pair from Ooe is my new favorite pair of jeans ever, and this time is no exception. Sized up to 40 as my size 38s have been a bit tight, and it's the perfect fit. Like my WOMCON's but tightened up in all the right areas. Will be hard not wearing these during the contest, but these will probably be my main jeans overall the next 10+ years they're that good for me.

^I mean GOT DAMN, time to wrap up sufu, we've hit the peak 🙏
