washing more often actually will make them fade faster....but of course too much washing will reduce the contrast. Normally I wash every 3 to 5 months to get a balance of contrast and overall fading. I find that washing them less frequently will lead to higher contrast but the whole process of fading a lot slower.

Yeah I noticed that with my cone mills 501s, but these were such a jerk to break in that once I got some give after the initial soak it had already been months of daily abuse.  I can wash them regularly now I think...it’s only been a month since the first one.

Nice results. Would you say they are slow faders?

Yeah they are slow...but once they get going the indigo just starts falling off.  The break in period tho....ouch.

Oh I so love those jeans

 

why don't they come in size 22"!!

awesome Momotaros!

 

Looking forward to my 2 pairs of 22.5oz, if you want to be pedantic theyre not Made by Japan a Blue, but the denim comes from Collect -the Japan Blue Group mill and is indentical-same for the 2 pairs of 10oz double indigo denim!

cant decide which to have cut first..still only on day 8 next of the 14oz...

 

Those Collect Mill 22oz in 22!  Post a pic when available!  Those will be fun to break in, but def worth it.
