Check in for number 74. Great to see the other 18 month submissions coming in. My pair have had pretty frequent wear, albeit predominantly worn around the house. I've warmed to the high high rise over the duration. Always found it comfortable, but it does give the impression at times I've pulled my pants to up under my arm pits. About 12 months in and with a bit of shrinkage due to washing, I lost the high water double cuff and found a shoe skimming longer length seemed to ease this perception a bit. Overall, a great pair of jeans. For a bit of variation I'll drop these from main wear for a bit, but they will remain firmly in use. Plenty of life left in these! stitching has pretty much fully held up, although the eagle eyed amongst you will notice I lost a rivet along the route. Not quite sure when, but in the washing machine is my best guess! cheers all and thanks @volvo240thebest and tcb for setting all this up.

Great to see all the well worn pairs on here and a flavour of what is to come with my jeans with future wear. My pair were one wash and the patch has relaxed a bit with future washes. The design has become more prominent as the patch has become smoother. The red tab has also unfurled a bit too over time, which was welcome.
