#16 coming back into the game...

Got mine near the end of October, after a size swap, so no special pocket bags or competition patch for me. Have been wearing them pretty consistently since, with a week off here and there. Took a while to get used to the incredibly high rise, but get used to them I did, and now I love the fit. First pic is April, after one wash. The rest are a couple of days ago, after another wash, and a crotch and hem repair.

Small update with my 50s under

 

[JRendon02]

I spent last week in Mexico. The first half of the trip was spent in Mayanalán meeting my girlfriend’s family and then we spent the second half in Mexico City. Hopefully we will be going back often. 
 

At my gf’s father land that they use to grow corn. 

Relaxing and enjoying the view at her parents house. 

Went to a market in Iguala to get some Consome and Birria

In the heart of Mexico City. 

Our last meal in Mexico City. Barbacoa at Eno.

Looks lovely @JRendon02! I'm working out a trip to San Miguel de Allende for July.

My jeans have been with Self Edge the last couple weeks for repairs. They've missed some great riding, but I haven't. Up around the Appalachians in CT and with my partner's T120 on the Delaware near Narrowsburg, NY.

Not much happening in terms of fades, they'll get another wash soon though

Small beer haul from yesterday as well

Between the hot summer days there have been a few unexpectedly cool evenings, so I've been able to get a few more wears in, enough to bring on some repair-worthy damage in a couple of spots.

Hi Folks,

Just checking in with an update. These have just had their 4th wash with 5 months of effective wear.

I’ve had to repair the back yoke stitching which can undone otherwise going strong! 
 

Love what I’m seeing on here!

[CSL]

Had a go at a pocket repair today.

[CSL]

And here's my first attempt at  this kind of hole repair. Not perfect but I'm feeling ok about the result.

 

[Duke Mantee]

I think that looks great

[CSL]

Thanks, Duke!

Latest updates...

[JRendon02]

17th wash and dry. 
 

I have worn these jeans every day since the start of the contest. That streak will end until I can get the crotch reinforced. I don’t think it will hold up much longer.

Thanks @srudy ! It seems like everybody's really doing their best, so I try to do my best as well. There's still plenty of time left but I think it's going to be a rough competition!
