The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

First time posting in the Evo thread - and I think the first IA's in the thread as well:

102 wears at the time the pics were taken, taken right after a first hot soak

The color's a little bit darker than in these pics. But you can see how much they've lightened up compared to the darkness of the lower-legs!

Now we'll see what the Brasilian sun (& sweat) does to these. That is, if the sun EVER comes out in Rio again.... (middle of the summer here and it's about 21 or 22 celsius and raining off and on every day).

Washed my Okinawas again.

Got mad muddy checking up on the denim experiment.

Before.

I did an hour long hot soak, then a cold wash in the washing machine.

Hot soak to shrink em back (stretched due to riding.) Cold wash to keep em a good size.

After.

Shitty pics.

Not bad for a bit over 2 months, I guess.

Worn since November 2nd. I forgot the first time I washed em. Whatever.

that looks good, esp if the rest of the jeans are wearing along at that pace...the whole falling apart aesthetic looks nice.

problem is the jeans im workin on, that thing looks like it might come along, and even those orange threads round the pocket are starting to unravel...yet the jeans look hardly worn everywhere else :(

coming along with a nice subtle fade watchman...have those been washed before already? they look like they have...

no they haven't. There is a little more contrast in real life, the lighting was pretty bad. From what i've seen, after the first big wash from the 6 month on they fade a ton, so i'm excited to see how they continue.

A pair of well worn RRDS are still great looking jeans. Too bad they got "played out" so quick. To each their own, but I got sick of the stitching in a hurry, whatever though. I still have two pair of Nudies I try to wear.

I need to get some pics of my Bears x Eternal up. Going on 5 mos.
