The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[Baeyer-Drewson]

X-post from the SExSC06 thread; just because there are so few evo pictures of these around.

SExSC06 worn every day for about 3.5 months. One cold soak about a week back.

You can see the blue curved detail from my Corter bifold wallet working it's way into the back right pocket.

[MindxMatters]

That is kind of cool (the wallet thing) Do you have any detail shots of the denim, aside from the honeycombs picture? I hope it gets more interesting with age.

[Baeyer-Drewson]

^I posted an attempted macro in the original post (SExSC06 thread). It didn't turn out too well because I have a pretty shitty camera.

The denim is definitely some of the more interesting I've see. It's extremely slubby but smooths itself out in places of high wear (eg the knees). Really nice, uneven texture and a super loose weave so that it is very breathable. Comfortable on even the hottest days.

YES! I've been waiting for people to post evolution pictures of these. They look nice BD. A lot more blue than I thought they would though...

[Baeyer-Drewson]

^I remember seeing pics of a different pair of jeans made with the same denim that had been washed regularly every 2 weeks for a year. The colour was a really washed out sky blue. Very different to most Japanese denim. Almost like a uniform acid-wash. Very cool colour though.

Here are my Skulls 5010xx6x6... 8months one wash!

[Elab]

Beautiful pair of jeans POP. I am loving the color

nice pair of 501's sayocean. Looking good for only 52 wears. Keep up the good work on those.

Skull actually has one of my favourite denims. Just as good as Warehouse etc. Need to get me a pair of 5000s.

For sure. Too bad it's only 5010s around here, I'd love to get my hands on the 5002 (WW2) model.

FH380

[laserbeast]

some wacky shots of my >1 year old cheap mondays

[blm14]

wow those look pretty good for cheap mondays. Can we see some in f16 or f8?

[pkj]

First time posting my jeans ever. FH 3001's at 8 months with 5 washes.

Close-up of crotch that I reinforced. It looks kinda weird, but that's what I get for doing it myself. Reminds me of skulls.

[tyang]

7 months of light wear; no wash. This is going to take forever to fade at this rate. Sorry for all the pics...

[thecrisisofimperialorder]

6 Months; Massa x La Deluxe; 2 soaks 1 wash (5 1/2 months).

[kyledunn]

1 year, 2 months. I don't remember how many washes. Lots and lots of holes/repairs. Color is sort of washed out in the first two pictures and the last picture shows the truest color of the denim.

[duck sauce]

i hate your avatar so much, i got soup on my jeans....

but nice, can we get close-ups of the back pockets?

[kyledunn]

I'll post what's left of them tomorrow.

[thaiison]

those skulls are beatup for sure

[JacoBlue]

okay heres my 4 months LVC 1937 no washes 3 soaks

anyone who likes em?

[erk]

they look great so far. you should definitely cross post this in the LVC thread.

[原料かば]

they look alittle diapery in the back. imo

[sayocean]

^ I think it adds more "authentic" aesthetic to the jean, anything tighter would look off for that intended cut. I like the fit

[原料かば]

yeah, but i do like the fadzzz

[dralfonzo]

very nice. also ill give you rep for pulling off a triple denim outfit.

[ngg]

okay, here are my nudie finns organic update pics

i realize most of sufu-ers here arent really into nudie but, well, here they go

since 02/09/08 no wash no soak no shit ..

[akuma no uta]

That's a whole year of wear?

[Charlie Delta]

More info in the denim repair thread, here

[thaiison]

impressive....

[Charlie Delta]

I must add that the guy who owns these doesn't care about any of the "sufu rules" with regards to denim, he just appreciates good jeans and like to rock the fuck out of them, washing them whenever needed and simply not caring.
