these are the 2 pairs in heavy rotation right now. they both have nearly equal wear, but look completely different.

I hand washed these samurais again when I got back from tour, they needed it. this was their first time with dr. bronners.

the 1937s have been hand washed once without soap and soaked several times.

one of my favorite parts of the 1937s is the denim texture. its really quite mesmerizing. In a few months these are gonna look great

RRL Straight Legs after ~5 months of wear. Two hand washes, one with only hot water, one with Dr. Bronner's. I think in about two more months of wear they will be exactly how I want them:

im repairing lendo's lvc47's,and i must say i was surprised that the cone denim wasn't as 'blah' as some had said. it damn sure aint okayama level, and it ain't worth $180 a wop, but it ain't bad either...good potential. i forgot to ask how he's worn/washed them, but the denim is much softer than i expected.

Washed 5-6 times maybe more, maybe less. I can't really say i've worn them that hard though, they were in rotation w/ the rrls i'd gotten around the same time. Had them for 3 years or so and they mainly get a machine wash w bronners and then hang dry. I think i threw them in the dryer at some point after the first year when i ended up dropping lbs when i started training bjj a lot.

we tried, our label wouldnt shell out the dough. but it is broken up so each side will fit on an LP if we ever wanted to.

I know a couple bands that go through two different labels to get their stuff on both mediums. No big deal anyways. I would pos rep if I could but I must spread it around apparently. The music sounds good. Raw sounding, not too refined.

Here are my current jeans:

Nudie Slim Jim dry japans 32x32. Bought in December 07. I think they have three washes. Falling apart. Repaired crotch. The back pocket started falling off so I decided to just get rid of it.

Imperial Dukes 32. Hemmed to about 32. Bought in August 08. One wash in march. They are coming along decently.
