Great update and progress guys! Just gave my jeans their 6th wash before handing them in to Unionville for their second crotch repair. Sorry for the bad iphone pics in office lighting.

^ Nice!

[swiss-jeansfreak]

Incredible updates going on here!!!!!!!!!!!

[greathoudini]

great updates everyone.

I didn't posted an update in a while, I'll try to snap some pictures soon. 
They can't match up with most of you guys but it probably is fun to see the progress on a less know brand every now and then.

Awesome jeans! What happened to the patch???

[cander49]

Old jeans, new bed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bonus: jeans on iron console, next to fiancee-made chair (which I helped a bit on).

 

 

 

Who needs TV when you can look at destroyed denim?

60 degrees Celsius washes did that to the patch. After the last washes the stitching started to come undone and this last wash shredded the patch. Haven't experienced that before.

[FLDenim211]

I usually start hand washing my jeans when they get weak or have some problems. 

[corporalclegg]

Worst contestant checking in! Don't know if I'm still in this thing as I have updated 0 times so far, but these have been worn just about 22 months at this point.  Still going strong, no real stitching breaks or damage to the denim minus the back pockets.  The knees and the seat have that feeling like they could explode at any minute.  Anyways, thinking about doing the last man standing with these as I can't seem to take them off my legs.  Will try to get better pics up sometime this week.

Haven't posted some pictures in a while, here are a couple I took last night with my Android phone, not great lighting not a great camera, but should give you an idea on the progress. The N&F 32 oz beasts continue to chug along, although holes are now developing in a few places, the one below in the crotch area can sure be felt this time of year when it's -30c! Still no soak or wash on these bad boys.

As promised, slightly better pictures. Washed maybe 4 or 5 times, worn about 22 months, never repaired.

Nice looking denim these last bunch of pages, keep it up guys and gals!!!

[mange]

While my Samurais are away for a repair I soaked and used my amnesty wear for my Kamikaze Attack 24oz.

Fantastic fit Mange, the tee looks great too.

[Slowitchu]

Awesome denim evolution going on here in the last weeks to come

[greathoudini]

Sorry for the lack of updates lately

Here are soms pics of my oldblue co.

The cuffs look very weird, kever noticed that before so I hope they don't allways look like that.

[TheIntelligentHoodwinker]

LIKE. 

 

Cuffs look fine to me. Maybe riding up 'cos of the shoes you're wearing?

[greathoudini]

That would probably just be the case. I just checked with other shoes and now they look better
