APC's Fading WAY too quick??? Help...

[driftingdunk]

Hey, whats up guys.. I have a quick question...

I started on my New Standards 2 days ago, and am getting close to a rip already. I understand its because of the knucks, but i definately was not expecting it to move this quick.. I know you guys hate the knucks, but i always wanted em... any help greatly appreciated..

On a side note, can anyone guide me on japanese denim that fits like APC NS? Thanks

I do have a huge commute, and wear thes in school, so the seat fades the fastest.. Is this normal, or is this way too quick? Thanks again

Mods, if this is in the wrong place.. please move it thanks..

It has nothing to do with the amount of time you wear them, it has to do with the abrasion. If you're sitting on subway trains or buses that have ridiculous hard plastic/fiberglass constructions and then you have a heavy metal pushing through cotton...well, you have those. You could just take out the knuckles now, since you have a pretty well defined look there already.

Unless of course you actually walk around with brass knuckles. o_0

take them out.

Sacrifice two pairs of identical twin unicorns and bathe in their blood and you will be sancified.

Just take the damn brass knuckles that you'll never use and put them on a damn shelf.

[BTT]

Isn't in certain states brass knuckles are illegal so if you were walking around with a fat brass knuckles imprint with it intruding out, wouldn't that make someone suspect....especially if you were on those kids wearing fruit loop jackets.

knucks....

fruit loop jackets hahahaha

just take 'em out, unless you have a purpose for them...ie sharkers on the subway and such. your biggest prob now is that you have brand spankin' fresh looking jeans with heavily faded maternitiy tits on your pocket. i think it'd look alarmingly fake, with time and wear being the only remedy to even out the overall wear.

for me, my wallet did the same shit...so don't discount the jeans; they're quality.

woulda been cooler if it was some snuff or something...the brass knuckles thing just seems a bit juvenile to me. too much novelty factor, not authentic looking/feeling.

[Servo2000]

Also, like people keep saying, "Obey" beat everyone to it, and so you're basically on some white-suburb-Nordstrom-shoppers level "street" there. Real gangster.

What??? In what world is a circle more authentic/creative than some knuckles?

Snuff is the one thing that's more played-out then knuckles. And yes, it just looks like a circle.

Remember when tragicbliss did this and everybody was on his nuts. Funny how things change.

it was always stupid....

[headcoat]

And he didnt do it for the sake of style. For him, the brass was a necessity due to his job doing "collections" for Russian "businessmen".

[mspark]

Carrying brass knuckles around for any other reason than knocking a dude's teeth out is fucking stupid. Leave them to their ulitarian purpose and fuck wack fashion.

[asleepfordays]

i'm thinking of putting a pot leaf belt buckle in my back pocket for the same effect . . .

[driftingdunk]

Wow, I have never expected so many arguements over something so simple...Thanks to all the real replies.. and continue ranting about...

Technically, police cannot search you, without premission.. unless you get arrested... Then your in trouble..

I never doubted the quality of the denim... just kind of shocked at how quick it happened..

Well, thanks for your help guys.. and throw ideas about what else you trow in your back pockets..Stay cool, no need to get heated over something stupid like what you carry around in your pockets....

Thanks again

[driftingdunk]

knucks....

yeah i call em knucks, just to be different...

[drofhiphopology]

here's what I have

what is inside?

[AYEITSJ]

^What's that Vans thing?

[Louis]

pen/lighter?

[artificialsky]

PUTTING ANYTHING IN YOUR POCKETS FOR THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF HAVING THEM FADE THE DENIM HAS NEVER, EVER BEEN A GOOD LOOK. ESPECIALLY KNUX, JESUS WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING?

[mspark]

^^yup^^

10 char

[lithiumsys]

^What's that Vans thing?

Skate tool I'd assume.

[reepicheep]

sitting on a wallet is uncomfortable enough for me, how do you guys sit on some metal thing gouging you in the ass

[kwonster]

might as well put a dildo in your pocket. wait, you didnt want a penis on your ass?

[drofhiphopology]

skate tool is correct, b/c i would hate to carry around the alternate

as for the penis comment, i don't even see anything resembling a human phallus in my fade marks.

it's actually not that noticeable in my pocket anymore than a wallet, actually less so, if cats can have those huge redmoon-esque wallets that stick out b/c of their size, it's not that far of a stretch.

[Analog]

So when someone points to the fade mark and asks, "what is that?", you respond, "Its from my brass knucks - isn't it coool?!?"

Is that why you did it?
