FIT PIXXXXXXXXXXX

Purple stitching with patching on the interior in frayed areas or areas with busted warp.
The back belt-loop is a replacement. The previous one was in two pieces.
The pants are holding together decently, but they stink to high hell. I actually had complaints from the tailor.
I'm planning to give these guys a cold wash with Dr. Bronner's once I get my hands on some. I'll get post-wash pics. I'm curious what that'll do to them too.
I have two questions:
At what point should these jeans just be machine-washed regularly? I remember Sidney Lo stated that he washes his FH 3001s like normal jeans since they've already reached a high point of fade.
And
Do I need Dr. Bronner's Sal Suds or Liquid Soap?

The Flickr HTML didn't seem to be working, so I had to link the medium-sized images. If you would like to see larger pictures, go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/jfleshman.
I'll get fit pics soon.
Also, I didn't like the turn-out of these pictures. I think the colors are too off, but I'm terrible with photography, so I'm just rollin' with it.

I'm planning to wash my SExSC02 soon, but first, I want to buy some Dr. Bronner's castile soap.
On their online store, should I buy the liquid soap or Sal Suds? The descriptions for usages are too vague for me to make a proper decision. I'm pretty confused.

After multiple repairs and reinforcements in busted, frayed, and heavily worn areas, my pseudo-denim-Frankenstein is complete.. kind of.
Anyways, the repairs add a lot of character to the jeans.
I'll get pictures in natural light ASAIR (As Soon As I Remember).

Could I use Kiwi Suede and Nubuck Cleaner on a pair of Red Wing [963]s? (Mistake there) I bought it for my Clae Leather slip-ons a while back.
If not, what's a cheap method of cleaning the boots?
Also, could I be reminded about when and if I should be using Mink oil?
Another concern, I mainly wear my SEXSC which fit very "snugly." A majority of the people I know say that I look fine pairing the jean with the [963] (D 12), but I get the feeling that it appears a bit too awkward because of the sudden size increase.
I'm curious if it would be worth it to order a pair of sized down Iron Heart Bootcuts to create a better overall look. The leg opening of my sugar canes barely fits around the top of the boot. The larger leg opening would look more relaxed instead of my current "leather pants" tightness around the ankle.
One more question: Are stacks or cuffs more appropriate when pairing with a boot?
I'll post pictures of me with the boots and sugar canes as a follow-up edit.
Edit:: But first [963] not 936

I'll put up post-repair pics when I get them back. Pretty damn curious myself.

God praise darning! (Patching might just feel fuckin' weird in that spot)
My own pair have been in Cali for the past while getting repaired. It's not all bad because these ESEF Ori's really wore in for me. They're actually very comfortable. It makes me want to get Iron Hearts as my next pair.

The SEXSC are thin to begin with, and mine fit me as tightly as skinny jeans.
With that being said, more pressure, more wreckage, faster fade.
Fuhq, those NS look insane. Fit pics? Also, is that the accurate color?

SEXSC at 6mo (1 cold soak, 2 washes)

p.s. I think the unions are a straight fit, and SEXSC are a slim. Always check the measurments vs. the tagged waist. I would say post photos, but I think that might just become midnight material for a lot of people on here (being almost all males).

Rofl summed that one up pretty easily.
Can't wait, Brown Man.

The Skin-fit was unintentional. I sized a true 30 waist, and my end result wasn't half that bad. I actually prefer the way these pants fit. It totally changed my perspective on life and shit, ya know?
I'll get a picture of my knee hole up. Sometime soon, I'll send it to a tailor to have it darned. The hole looks cool, but my jeans are only ~6 months old. If I want to have them a year from now, I need to to get on them repairs.

my esef's at 3 months. initial hot soak, hot soak at 50 days, unnecessary rain soak here and there..worn pretty much everyday, give or take a few days.
Damn, man!
Those are looking hella decent. Did the pockets ever stretch out for you?
I might start wearing mine until my regulars get fixed. Thanks for the unintentional encouragement.

The only place I get any bag is at the knee.
You seem to have extreme bagging there. I may be entirely off, but cuffing them might help.

I like dj's idea. If the sleeves ever throw off the chest fit, wear a jacket.
Also, you could try rolling the sleeves so they don't bag as much.

I like the gray double-button. What is the technical name for it?

This is quite a fine jean. Great fit and overall look, rofl.
My own have a blown pocketbag, holes in the knee and left backpocket, and complete fade to white on wallet, knees, and buttoks.
I need to repair them holes. They look cool, but they only get bigger with time.

Your explosive warp threads on the left back-pocket made me naseous. That isn't an everyday thing to see...
Other than that, the jeans look very nice.

My friend traveled to China last summer and bought a pack of ciggs that supposedly contained opiates.
When my friends smoked them, they fell all over the place. One friend even passed out.
Does anyone know of any brand that contains the drug?
Also, I wikipedia'd "Snus" and stumbled upon "IPCO Creamy Snuff".
http://www.ipcosnuff.com/creamy.htm
Has anyone tried the product? It seems like a good concept.

The ironing tip is probably best, but I would just take them to a good drycleaner and ask them to do it...it'll be worth the $5.
Sounds like a plan. The less chance I have to ruin my jeans, the better.

I recently sat in a lot of glittery lip-gloss that's probably oil-based. It left large, dark spots on the hind area of my jeans.
Any denim specific tips to removal of these stains?

The ori's are shipping much faster now.
I convinced a class mate of mine to drop the money on the jeans, and it arrived in about a week.
