first promises of evolution...

[JohnM 1,016]

Loving the Deninbridge jeans -- great cut, weight, and crinkly feel.  Evo will be slow since I bought both 35 and 36 -- both fit, depending on the waistline.  With loud McCoy's/Buco shirt and Lofgren engineers in Choco/Black.

Denim and newborn from about two weeks ago. Second pic shows current status of back left leg crinkles, after yet another wash. Lets see what a second kid will do to me (and the way my pants will fade)

This fabric is insane, never seen anything like it before 

[d-rew12 18,005]

Mine did the same thing after a wash and was like, what's going on haha. They're awesome.

Sadly, right now I can only wear them like 1-2 times a week due to the busy season at work , but soon enough!

great pics everyone!

(Crosspost from waywt)

few shots from the lab the last few days, can't believe it's already two months. Have to repair the right backpocket soon, as the inner thread attaching it broke from my wallet.

[Broark 12,782]

Caved and washed my pair last night, hope to snap some pictures this evening or tomorrow.

[vIGGiou riou 1,147]

decided to worm soak them tomorrow with detergent added. reasons are 2 and third is just impatience. first came after todays visiting of my dentist. they stink. second reason is condition of my crotch. it needs water. tomorrow before soak I'll do pictures and measurements ....

Repaired the backpocket today, hope it'll hold up a little longer.

[Bobbo 7,084]

Dang, that one went out fast! It's cotton threads alright, but still.

[Thanks_M8 1,831]

Yeah, thought the same. Think it also has a relation to the shape of the pocket and me cycling quite much and keeping a bunch of stuff in my wallet.

[tigerstrom 2,881]

Thinking of wash my pair again today or tomorrow. I washed my ooe contest pair once a month and they became really nice after 18 months.

[vIGGiou riou 1,147]

here they go just before first warm soak...

Another wash (third wash) and more crinkles

 

 

The color is most accurate on the second and third picture.

[vIGGiou riou 1,147]

so done. I soaked them yesterday in warm water cca 40° C after wearing them without initial soak 7 and half weeks. they met first water....

measured before soaking I didn't notice almost any stretch against measurement when they were new. just waist stretched for 1cm. measured today after drying and shrinkage is perceptible. but the denim changed and is much more soft and comfortable. shrinkage worked well and now they sit on me, like a baby's butt on a potty....

some fit pics during the week...

 

 

[Broark 12,782]

Post wash update! This denim is really something else.
Also got a new phone, so excited to see how these photos came out.
And some more photos from recently, went to a brewery with @longshanks and Selvedge1 on Instagram (don't think he has an account here?)

The GBG001 and me participated at a Sushi class last Thursday. Fades on the jeans are slowly but some signs can be seen...only in person

[vIGGiou riou 1,147]

they look great Broark and sushi too bF ...

After 5-6 weeks of actual wear

[Broark 12,782]

Looking good! I’ve found that I can actually get these over my new Lofgren engineer boots, probably looks better with a straighter legged cut but I’ll try to snap some photos today.

[Broark 12,782]

They don't look too bad with engineer boots!

[Bobbo 7,084]

Looking good! Seems like my Lone Wolf's have a slightly wider shaft. Can wear them with the jeans, but it looks a tad wonky.

[Broark 12,782]

I think if I tried to wear my Viberg engineers I would have the same experience.

[beautiful_FrEaK 1,668,846]

Looking for some new lights for the house and some interior design.

The light shop looks pretty nice from the outside 

 

Chillin' while the lady looks around

Well we had autumn cleaning in my neighborhood today so my dear gbg001 had to do some real work for once
