btw:

great fade polish. I'm just an incyincy bit jealous haha jk:p

but really, nice fade.

But as you for beatle, yeah, I'm just jealous. hahahaha

[beatle]

patched my back pockets last night...

You´re right...

[beatle]

Just thought I´d go find ur post...

[cheep]

So how many of you guys have a blown out pocket bag?

ive restitched the front pockets... but no blowouts at all. crotch is still strong too.

heres some pics... the contrast is about right, tho the color is what you see in my last 2 waywt.

[poly800rock]

damn cheap, looking good.

[cheep]

those arent bad either poly... strange how different the fading is on all of them... its not like apc where every pair looks pretty much the same.

yeah, that's really neat how every pair is completely different. Yours seem to have a lot more contrast as i feel mine are more uniform, but I think the vertical falling on mine is top notch. trying to wait till the end of june/july for the 3rd wash. then it will be every few weeks or a month every wash.

Cheep, what's the secret to those great lap fades?

Cheep, what's the secret to those great lap fades?

I've heard he uses midget ninja lap dancing pandas for 3 hours a day. Could be just a rumor though...

[cheep]

Cheep, what's the secret to those great lap fades?

skateboarding i think. the fact that the jeans are so tight up top since i have slim hips and waist, but an ass and large thighs

Cheep, what's the secret to those great lap fades?

the secret is all of sufu lining up to grind their faces into his lap--sometimes two at a time.

[beatle]

What's surprising though is that some of the Sam's that have been washed like 5 or 6 times look darker than the ones that only hit the washer once or twice..

Is it just me - or do you guys feel the same way about it ??

So hard to figure that out from pictures though. I mean, we have 5 or so digital cameras in our household and except for the DSLRs (both Nikons), they show hugely different colors. Even in terms of color balance, much less shade.

[cheep]

yeah, mine hae been washed 7 or 8 times... and the color in my waywt is the true color.

[beatle]

color after first wash..

6 washes

Washed 5 or 6 times..

[beatle]

Maybe washing them does'nt just bring out the fades - it also refreshes the indigo...????

[cheep]

ive read that on here somewhere.. i forget where.

tried to rep you westbrook, but i need to spread the love before i can again. imaginary +rep

[polishmike]

poly, i like yours the most right now. i'm trying to go for more contrasting fades so i might only do one more wash before nov. i think if cheep wouldn't do that many washes his pair would rip somewhere already. these jeans get a lot tighter/stronger after the wash.

i repped him for you... sometimes that shit needs to be said.

[emaze]

[emaze]

[justinbaily21]

Color me emazed.

[40ozprophet]

[beatle]

Nice pogress..good to see them again...

[emaze]

thanxs beatle..... it's just so hard trying to get the right lighting when taking pictures of these jeans.

[cheep]

yeah emaze... looking damn good. i know what you mean about the lighting too... its hard to capture the true color of these things.
