Regain

I think I've had these jeans repaired atleast 10 times now and haven't been really wearing them daily due to the amount of repairs there had to be done. I ripped through the jeans around 5 months in(,the picture can be found a few pages back) , then a month later a crotch blow out, ripped pockets, stitching letting loose. Might be because of the way I use these jeans, but still.

I agree it's a big claim for a renowned brand like Eternal but compared to my Atelier la Durance or Evisu these jeans did not live up. 

My almost 2 year old 883s. No clue on how many washes these had and for how long theyve been worn. Builtqualitywise these jeans are definitely one of the shittier jeans Ive owner, but hey, they fade really cool

I still owe you guys a fitpic of my Eternal, but they're are in repair once again. Backpockets are coming loose and the front pockets are completely destroyed. Has anyone before ever had problems with Eternal's poor construction?

Depends on the temp you wash them on. But in the first few weeks of wear they also stretch a considerable amount 

Yeah, bicycle is my main mode of transportation. Already sent an email to Denimio, but they said it was due to the way I wear them.

I hope tot get them repaired again next week and then I'll post a fitpic.

Having them repaired/darned is an option!

This will not be cheap and there will be no guarantee for not rip again or further. But, it will certainly be cheaper than buying a new pair...

In addition to SE I can recommend Mr Handy Denim Repair in/near Groningen.

I brought them to mr Handy last month and got them back a few days ago. Unfortunately they ripped again after two days, but this time on the left side of my crotch. Guess I'll havo to get them repaired again.

Not extremely slim fitting and I sized them tts.

My 883 ripped open after 5 months of wear yesterday.

So I was wondering, is this normal for eternals or was it just bad luck?

Also ordered a pair of the new Masa in the slim tapered cut. Although a bit too skinny at first, they've loosened up nicely after a day of wear. Fitpics will follow

Up for grabs a pair of denim of the Indonesian brand Old Blue Co.

These jeans are brand new and have never been worn. All info about the denim can be found at: http://oldblueco.net/index.php?act=detail&id=125

The price is set at 75,- Euros excluding shipping. The jeans are located in the Netherlands.

Feel free to message me for more info.

Extremely tough fabric, but they're looking better with every week of wear. I also like the blue color of it

Small update on my sage wardens. About 14 months now with 3 washes and 3 soaks.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, anyone on the fence will not regret it (provided the measurements work for you )

Haven't been on sufu a lot. But my Sage hit the one year wear mark a while back ago. Wardens are coming through beautifully with a nice shade of blue.

Also saw Sage has a slubby black pair out now with a good looking fit.

The warden is really nice. But it took a while for them to break in, haha. I think due to the deep indigo color.

Didn't have enough time to shoot some decent pictures. But for now this teaser of my Warden should do.

10 months of wear, 2 soaks, 1 machinewash.

X-post from the Sage topic. I'll shoot some better pics the following days

They're in the washing machine right now. Ill post some pics tomorrow after the wash. Need a 10 month update for hwdcr2

Also, if anyone was wondering, my adventures into the Elbrus did not work out. Somewhere between my measurements and theirs, something had to have been off, because they were much too small. However, the denim is just as incredible as it looks in pictures. It's super hairy and has this really deep, rich indigo color. Fortunately my girlfriend fit into them perfectly, and has been wearing them with some regularity since November, though not nearly as much as I might have. They seem to be fading fairly quickly for the amount of wear she's put into them.

 

I've thought about reordering, but every time I look at their measurements I feel that the rise is just too low. Still, I'd love to see this brand get some love here!

Too bad your venture did not work out. I'm still wearing my wardens and going a strong 10 months in them. Good to see people worldwide are getting more interested in Sage.

A friend of mine has been wearing some Denham pairs the last couple years and I must admit that the outcome is actually really nice. Although, all the tacky and gimmicky details make it less attractive to denim 'purists', these jeans are still capable of producing some cool faded pairs.

But apc's are some of the fastest fading jeans around. If you rule out the unbranded heavyweights.

I remember reading somewhere during the first hwdc that samurai wouldn't be able to compete with some IH fades. But by the looks of it everyone not wearing samurai will have a hard time competing against the ones that are wearing samurai, haha.

Some updates on my Sage after 7 months of wear. It's hard to capture the true colors with a phone camera. But you can get an overal idea.
