There's an older buckle back? I know there's a one this season (yellow jin arcs with a cinch). Speaking of which I gotta post mine up soon.

[Curious_George]

I assume he's talking the 130xj (which was also an 06 model).

save people the trouble

Akane is a women's version of Sorahiko. I have been wearing this pair of denim for about two years. When I bought them, they were really dark and felt a lot heavier. I wasn't used to this heavier weight denim, but I decided to give it a try since I had never distressed my own denim before. Ever since, I have washed them about 4 times. It took at least a year for the whiskers to start showing. But after that, it all happened very quickly. I finally feel really comfortable wearing this denim now that it's soft and worn out. My next goal for this pair is to distress a little more. It took me two years to make this pair look like this, so I will give it a few more years to achieve my next goal.

This was passed on to me from my husband who used to wear this pair. He started wearing this pair 5 years ago and wore it for a few years. It has been washed 5 times. He wore it almost every day. It has also been repaired many times, and I'm sure it will continue to require more repair. But this will add more character to this pair, for sure.

These started out as raw pair of Sorahiko Slim and through a happy accident they shrank to fit me perfectly. These were my second pair of 45rpm jeans and I have been wearing them pretty steadily for about two years. I wash them whenever I feel like they are dirty, which is probably not often enough! I always wash them inside out. I feel like the most organic way to get a pair of jeans to wear in nicely is just to treat them like a regular pair of work denim. The more fancy techniques and tricks you use to get them to look a certain way, the less they look like a work of art.

I have had this pair for three years and wore them almost every day. I have only washed them three times. The fabric becomes softer and softer with each wear. It has been repaired so many times...It doesn't fade like the other denim I have because it's dyed with natural Ai. It is definitely one of my favorite pairs of denim.

these are very nice. how any washes and soaks(hot or cold) did you give it?

[rockon99]

Jesus - this page, and last page are killin it. so many amazing jeans!

s710xx at 11 months. they´re a lot lighter irl. will get proper sunlight images at one year. (no chance for sun these days...)

they had a bunch of washes and 9 month of almost everyday wear. i´ve been rotating with 811s since nov.

i always added salt when washing. guess that´s why the buttons show so much rust.

[lenn]

wow those buttons look great aztec! i love rusty buttons, gonna add some salt when i'm soaking my skulls again

NICE!! is that a carribeaner in the left butt pocket?

[individualsole]

This is one of my first pair of Japanese denim that I picked up years back when Self Edge first opened, but started to really wear them like 4 times a week over the past 4-5 months. Iron Heart 634S. Yes, they were cut a lot shorter than I would like, but definately not flood status!

[salaami]

damn, i cant rep igit anymore. big ups to chan for posting the stories of the 45rpms. somehow i think the jomons dont fade due to dye penetration, not type-of-dye. i might be wrong. wont be the first time. nothing like a good slow fade...

[Baeyer-Drewson]

damn, i cant rep igit anymore.

2nd... Best pair of Skulls i ever did see...

[Atzec]

I was able to take better pics of my s710 today. Wanted to edit my original post, due to 4.0 it´s gone now.

Well, here are the new pics and old detail-pics...

11 months, lots of washes...
