Sandpaper!!!

Looking good for an artificial job though.

Why are you saying that, if I may ask?

Why are you saying that, if I may ask?

Sarcasm I would say...

[M1stral]

I was just wondering, because I couldn't spot any artificial alteration.

There isn't any, and I resent that implication.

I have a butler, hired because he matches my dimensions, who wears them in for me.

I was just wondering, because I couldn't spot any artificial alteration.

I was just throwing a little jab at a veteran to fading in jeans knowing that the ultimate criticism to a trained denim fadist, such as Sir Paul T, would be that he had somehow artificially enhanced his beloved 55s.

Basically sarcasm. I can't outright compliment Paul T. I have to use sarcasm to subtly show respect.

[rnrswitch]

Edit: Or else an attempt to shit up this thread like he did the ROY thread. Or is that.... we.

I would like to see this end up in super trash.

That's enough from me. Back to evolving denims!!!!

Didn't U2 do something similar back in the 80s - hire some geezers to fade their brand new 501s? Or am I sucker to a non-rural myth?

I think that came from a terrific NME cartoon by Ray Lowry. Keith RIchards in the foreground, and a guy in the background spinning weights and jumping up and down on a jute mat to wear in his denim for him.

Bono would have had to hire a denim-dwarf.

He only needs a 12 inch inseam. Fact!

Paul T, any full pics of those 55's?

[M1stral]

Nice Sams, obviously I can't give rep yet. Think it has to do with my postcount or not having enough rep points myself. Maybe I'll get some when my Momo's are about a half year old

Sorry for bringing up the sarcasm discussion on Paul T's Levi's.

[chambo2008]

Because your not on 50 posts yet, you will be able to after....

[alimenator]

nice sam's

Paul T, any full pics of those 55's?

Ha... guess who's avoiding filling in a tax return and doing some invoicing.

55s. Not sure how old, around 9 months.

And bonus photos... these both got more wear time this year, but will go back in the box for the upcoming Roy Year.

1947:

1901. Definitely a bit dirtier than the last time I posted them - all authentic 1900s soot and mud...

[zissou]

Great collection, Paul. I'll finish out this year with a solid year on my MFSCs before hanging them in the closet while the Roy contest is going on. I'm a little sad about it.

Xpost from the IH thread.

If you guys remembered my buddy's SR's @ 2 months here they are now. That was back in June, so I guess that would make the 9 months old.

[DoitsuJin]

jesus, those are incredible.

the way the SRs fade are pretty similar to the denim used by Samurai...

[morse9443]

Those SR's are crazy, the two month pics too.

What does your friend do solix, live in a mine and roll in the dirt all day?

[thewickett]

he does constuction or something similar if I remember correctly

edit: works on cars as well/active lifestyle concept

[mister B]

Does he build the entire building himself then because those IH are insane

THIS.

Those are phenomenal, holy shit. Especially being only 9 months.

[bill]

great jobs, guys.

I got some acne hex cash, two months ago. and they are already fading. can't wait to post evo pics in a few months. they will look awesome. I know, they arent raw, but a good pair of black jeans that has nicely faded is always fun to see
