The Golden Gate Denim is a slow fader - the warp yarns are twisted less resulting in deeper dye penetration. It takes a bit to start fading but it will get there. The OAXX denim fades much quicker.

We have more moleskin Cossack jackets on the way as well - should be here sometime next week.

My Golden Gate's feel like they've faded at a much faster rate than my other Ooe jeans. The heavier weight + deep dye penetration makes the fades appear a little too constrasty for me, feel like I have to wash more to counter it. That's just me though, curious to see how other people feel about the Golden Gate denim that have actually worn them daily for longer than a month (if there are any)

Here's some content for you guys

01XXS about to hit the one month mark. I've been machine washing weekly, warm water, dryer... yada yada yada...

Not much evo yet but I'm really enjoying this pair so far. I'm pretty much giving up on my Golden Gates for the time being, I'll get some photos of those up sometime soon if anyone is interested

My 004s shrunk a fair amount and the stitching began to unravel pretty fast.

Neil hit the nail on the head though, just keep an eye out now that you know and it shouldn't be a problem.

The shrinkage is definitely the main thing to look out for, mine shrunk a lot in a warm wash so take heed. I wish I took measurements pre/post wash but it was unexpected for a jean I was told was sanforized. Just wash cold.
