I think those pockets are awesome. Very cool detail, something tging a little different

50's, lots of yard work and several more washes since last update. Hard to get it just right but this is closest.

For what it's worth, I gave my 710's (not kiwami) two hot soaks similar to what you did, and when I eventually machine washed & dried them a few months later, there was no noticeable additional shrinkage.

Down By Law is great too. John Lurie is too cool

Alden 40538H, purchased this past June. There were my grail shoes but haven't really had many occasions to wear them - pulled them out today just for some errands around town.

The dreaded front phone fade, no less.

No that's just from the cotton thread wearing out. I didn't really notice at first and it became more dramatic after recent washes

Some closeups of my 50s after a million washes

50s, got these October 2017, lots of washes and one wallpaper removal. Getting soft as butter.

@unders I feel you...a lot of good shows were planned for this year. That is basically the only social thing I do so it's been rough. Looking at that flyer -- not sure if you've heard Morne, but they are awesome: Crucial riffs at 2:30 and again at 4:01

One of their best songs IMO

I'm probably a ~33 waist and this 32 fits perfectly. Nice and slim but not tight.

Took some pics of my Type III black denim, worn in rotation since May 2017. I love these jeans, lots of character with the chalky white fades and the marbling that has occurred from the ~4-5 machine washes. Please excuse the dog hair. These are much more black looking in real life -- the camera captures the fading but exaggerates the contrast a bit.
