I should take them after you, make it full circle.

Yup, I went to that middle school. Used to cut class back at that spot on the creek.

Small world!

@Hendsch Those look amazing. How often do you think you washed? I'm 2 months in on my 60s and it's my first pair of jeans I'm not being a baby about washing, but I still have residual anxiety about it. Old habits die hard. 

 

 

 

Thanks! Not sure how much I washed them. They maybe went a month before they were regularly washed and dried, maybe every 1-2 weeks. 

Xpost from TCB thread:

I've pretty much stopped wearing my 60's in favor of my 50's but I figured I'd share with you all the state they are currently in. TCB 60's, a little over a year and washed VERY often:

I love the texture on the yoke!

Thanks! I went with a 29, sized down one from my 60's.

^lol I could get away with that in a month, would need to hide them from my wife 

I think the 60's fit the tall and lanky the best. Great fit Coolguyzack!

I'm so bummed I passed on this contest  If I had known there would have been a second run I would have held off on my 50's. 

Glad to see so much life in this thread though, I'll be along for the ride!

I pretty much went to my true waist (~29) and also sized down from my 60’s (30’s). These fit perfectly without a belt.

I didn’t know they could look this slim either... they are a size 29 and I think they may be stacking up to being my favorite pair of pants!

@oomslokop I totally know what you mean about the 129s being slimmer than they feel...

Front and back of my wattle 129s, not much going on in the back though. Pictures really do not do these justice, especially iPhone pictures

Not today but months ago at Insperation LA:

The brown over dye is still in the stitching and weft but pretty much gone from the rest of the fabric, maybe a bit in the pockets.... As for washing, I pretty much wash these every week, making the brown fade out pretty quickly.

current status of my wattle 129s. These things sure can take a beating!
