The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[corbu]

here's the deal

i think theyre hitting the wash in a couple minutes

14 months 1 soak

here we go

they are a little darker than featured in the picture but you get the idea

i'll post after-wash pictures tonight or tomorrow.

this just makes me want a pair of limited 101z even more

its just too bad they dont have them here

[mr fluffernutter]

fading on those lees is hectic as fuck

[headtowall]

Those Lees are definitely a strong argument in favor of infrequent washing. Really looking forward to post-wash pics.

PBJs are coming along really well too, Viv.

[khaltire]

Ive been waiting to see him wash those lees for ever.. are they LHT? Im surprised the crotch didnt rip at all.. thats great

[salaami]

i would have given you the job simply because of the jeans. dedication deserves rewards.

The crotch is quite ripped actually, it just doesn't show up on that picture.

Here are my nudies, worn for about 6 months. They're RRDG (Dry Greycast)

the color may be a bit off due to the lighting

gonna wear em a bit longer and hopefully give em another wash. They had a slight crotch rip ( in traditional nudie style) as well which was repaired

You dudes can call Nudies played out all you want to, but they absolutely fade to the best color imo.

[Superstar]

^ i really must say i dont like that colour at all...

never have and prolly never will..

[justinbaily21]

I completely agree. Horrible color, imo.

[Guest jeffvyain]

they have the best color, why? because they're light? lightness comes to all jeans, some quicker than others. the fact that nudies get so light so quickly only affirms that their dying process is weak. if it's the actual color you like, well...who can argue with you? but i think they lack depth.

[joey_formal]

^^sorry homi29 im not feeling those at all. i am very bored with nudie, i think the fades are just boring. greycasts never have much contrast at all but it cant be expected with the color they start out at. entirely too much all over color loss in 6 months time.

[homi29]

i actually like the color of the greycast nudies. i think its refreshingly different, and while not as slubby or as deep as others, its a good deparature from the typical indigo blue that has been on every pair of dry levis and the myraid of repros they've spawned.

i would say nudies are a good jean, but overpriced in North America. The biggest problem for me was the weak denim (crotch rips)

[M.O.A]

i have had a lot of nudies in the last two years and I am with everyone else here when I agree...the colors of the Nudie are just blah.....they are just boring....I have seen too many of them to give a shit.

the rrdg were my first dry jean and as much as i loved them...the color is crap.

[GoodHustle]

The color of the dry greycasts might be a little bland, but the colors of the RRDS, Sven Flame Drys, and Even Steven Blue-Blacks are amazing. I hope Nudie uses the Blue-Black for some more fits besides the Even Steven.

[justinbaily21]

They look a lot like the Lucky jeans that I have seen. Color depth, texture, etc.

[ChaseDizzy]

i would wash them, if i could get someone to patch them up first, but i can't think of anyone on this earth who would be willing to take that job.

I'd patch them up. For a price.

[homi29]

here are some pics of my APC rescues

im kind of dissappointed in this jean since they stretched out way much, and i probably should have gotten new standards instead

that being said, they smelled bad and had alot of salt on em and random spills so i had to give em a wash.

about 4-5 months of wear

heres the pics

[Godluv5ugly]

APC New Standards

exactly 4 months today

no wash, 1 soak

edit: this is my first post!

Hard worn Japanese Evisu 2001 model. No2 denim. Tokyo style.

posted theese before, and they are coming up to around 2 year mark.

Rips in many places but patched up and taken care of.

Only soaked 3 times . never washed in machine.

They just got back from almost 3 months of vacation in thailand. and need a soak badly..

it's something about the moisture I guess.

anyway, here are the pictures.

I think theese may retire soon, after I hemmed them.

I can not wait to start using my samurai S0510xxIII hard.

Enjoy!

[poly800rock]

i love how you have so many pairs of evisu's beat to shit, be prepared for rep.

[Ahlvahroe]

i was looking at new posts and i saw your name and i flew to this thread. damn those evisu took a beating. also what pair are you wearing in the pic the vertical falling on those is very pronounced.

[LaiShin]

That Evisu is art!

[__3xL]

damn deus how much of a sag did you wear in those ?

[international]

[Deus]

Love to see all your samurai and all your other japanese jeans beat to shit in no-time.

how is it going with your samurais b.t.w.? ?

Ahlvahroe

They are a pair of super well worn Thai fake Levis i picked up when i was in bangkok.

Awesome color and high contrast fade.

Could not resist to buy them because of the fade, as it's one of the best 2:nd hand worn jeans ive ever seen.

cheap too. around 15$.

Good catch!

numero_uno_3xl

Veeeeerrry Saggy. they stretched like a B**ch over theese 2 years.

[tweeds]

Deus--great to see you around. any updates on your EU-ed pair?

both your JP and EU evisus are in the XXX thread

[Deus]

Tweedlesinpink

Thanks!

I lost intrest in the Eu series, they dont really do the cut..

so i just have them in my closet. with the rest of the jeans.

i have so much better jeans to spend my time with than Eu crap.

so what is your latest project??

[abstraktgeformt]

I can't believe how dark these Evisus still are after almost two years... Evisu Japan FTW!
