The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[cheapmuthafukr]

they are slow ones, aren't they? But the more jeans I try on, the more I realize I love my canes

yeah... im still waiting for my sammies, but i have a feeling my canes will still be my favorite. the attention to detail is amazing.

Levis Red. Just turned 3 years. 3 washes. First at ~2-3 months, second at ~1.5 years, ant the last one at ~2.5 years. Ist really hard to capture their true color in photos. The best photo is the one with flash. But they are a bit darker IRL.

No flash

With flash

WOW.

after seeing your picture, I quickly dug up my pair of Levi's Reds...these are the "1st" collection of levi's red. i bought them cheap on ebay back when i was still ignorant about denim....

[poly800rock]

fucking amazing.

[holotekor]

one wash

woops

hahaha, i just did that too. on another note, my friend put his cell phone through the wash-- it still worked after it dried up.

[rnrswitch]

2months, no wash

4months, 1st wash at 3 months

I love those canes man. My 47s still get worn a bit... not as much as I wish. Plenty of other jeans to break in.

[NoleAnderson]

wore these diesel chick jeans for 15 months every day. this was at about month 11.

Yesterday was the 8 month mark on my Imperials. Eight being my lucky number, I decided to wash them.

This is what they looked like pre-wash.

[Carl]

Beautiful.

Levis Red used to be soo nice. Now theyre shit instead

[kwiteaboy]

Yeah, they're sz 32 Dukes.

[BrokenGlass]

are those even raw?

they don't have to be raw to produce wear, obviously, and they dont have to be raw to post in this thread.... look at the first post.

I think they look torn to shit and filthy as fuck....I like them.

Those dukes look good... are they dry yet?

[kumo]

my eternal 811's after approx. 5 months of real wear. washing them now.

[Carl]

Between those eternals and the imperials up there, this thread is shaping up for a badass day.

Get to washin and postin!

[watchman]

i love the way 811's fade, someone described it as the indigo "flaking" off. Those seem kind of lightly worn for 5 months, were they every day? mine don't seem to be fading quickly, but after a month and a half there is some decent wear, i'm looking forward to mine looking like yours

those imperials are sick. i think those may have to be a graduation present since i'm assuming that's the earliest i'll need a new pair

[NoleAnderson]

thanks BrokenGlass.

but no Mr Calvin Oscar they did not start raw. they had some fade to them but no worn stress in the denim. like little cuts or anything.

i blew the crotch open eight times. my mom keeps sewing it up so my dinky wont hang low.

dont tell me mom i smoke or drink. k?

[kwiteaboy]

Washed pics!

My favorite part about them is the leather tag. It started out raw and ended up awesome.

They stunk pretty bad before I washed them, but now they smell like gross peppermint. They feel way lighter, though, without the builtup sweat and tons of bacteria excrement that must have been in them.

[Seething Tortoise]

I request your measurements (at and at least 2 inches below your belly button, and where your pelvis starts) please

Was that zippo looking object in your coin pocket, because if it was, God damn Imperial make deep coin pockets.

[Carl]

Those look great, but take some pics outside in better light. Itll make em look that much better.

[kwiteaboy]

Carl, I will do. October evenings in Seattle don't make for good lighting, though, so it might be a few days.

Tabris, my waist where I wear my jeans is a 34. I don't have a tape, so I can't measure the rest, but by Imperial's standard I should've been a 34, rather than the 32 seen here. You can see in the fly that I stretched these to the limit (though even now, after the wash, they're pretty baggy in the waist on me).

Yeah, it was a Zippo in my coin pocket. I lit it hundreds of times on the leg over the course of a few drunken nights, but no wear from that :-/

[stuntastic]

those imperials are amazing.

I cant wait till I get my hands on a pair...

[sam113]

I've got em at CONTEXT.

Get at me and i'll hook you up.

[sam113]

Oh- by the way-

Those things do look freaking sweet.

[poly800rock]

doesn't even matter, looks awesome.
