lvc 33 broken raw since sometime in june

denim is so nice...

[rungo]

What's with the single vertical whiskers? or is that some sort of darting?

p.s. 501st post ftw!

If you're referring to the line running from the inside of the thigh at the crotch down to the middle of the knee, yes, that is darting. Its a feature on the 008.

[spacemanvt]

what does darting mean?

[duck sauce]

just think of it as the denim overlapping on itself

[Mr HaGa]

Lots of pics, sorry...

Post wash

in the shade

in the sun

Neither is very accurate colourwise. I'm not happy with these pics so I might take some more later and repost...

Fit

some detail shots

The repairs I had to do in the 2nd month, with crappy thin thread from a wallgreens sewing kit. Gotta get schooled by Salaam on this stuff, I gotta redo parts cause it's coming undone...

true greatness mr. haga. i love the more relaxed fit, yet you still manage to have good contrast.

[rnrswitch]

Nice HaGa. I like the look of well broken in relaxed fit style jeans.

this is my first evo post. here's my sc 1955's that i've been wearing everyday since december . sorry for the poor picture quality, my camera is broken.

[jstavrin]

Fuck, I was hoping to be the first in a long while to post some SC 1955 evo pics.

Yours look great. +rep

EDIT: how many soaks/washes?

cross post from Evisu thread :

Just a little update - these 2 were taken in July after about 6 months and 1 wash.

You can see their super slubby nature quite clearly and some bright blue peeking through. I think I am going to wash alot more frequently now.

I like contrasty jeans but prefer the more vintage washed out look with nice wear. Whether these'll look that way remains to be seen. more updates when enough change is visible.

They are just so damned tough though, I've been crawlng over solid floors,concrete, gardening, playing on the carpet with the dog ! - they are just so stubborn !

[staygold]

thanks for the +rep. first wash was at 4 months, then at 8 months. warm soak every 2 months.

Just a teaser pic here of my xx-007's. 5-6 months of 4-5 days per week of wear, two soaks, and one wash. Will post more when they are truly worthy. The lighting isn't optimal, they look darker than they actually are.

[grouse_allergy]

God, I love the slubbiness of PBJ's... almost as much as I hate teaser pics. More, more, more!

Okay, one more, but I really need to wait for daylight so I can get better lighting. These are my 005's. These have about 7 or so months on them, and a couple of washes and soaks. Not as much going on with these, I need to refocus on this pair and my 005bk's and give the 007's and Nudie SSDS a break.

[Osmosis Jones]

x-post with flathead thread. more of a fit pic but you can definitely see how beat up they are now. i'll post up better photos when i get ahold of a decent camera.

[stukovx]

Whoa, no homo but those may be a little too tight.

[jjkchung]

^ you clearly haven't seen his other fit pics

[Osmosis Jones]

just machine washed them in hot water and then dryer on hot. tightens them up.

[billy.]

havent checked here in a while.

nice jeans everyone.

[jackers]

evil's fit is dope

[rockon99]

no comparison with what's been posted lately, but here are my slowly progressing cheap Gap skinny "japanese selvedge" denims. they were on sale when i saw them, so i figured, what the hell, why not. haha

whiskers slowly starting - they fade like apc's. just the tight thin whisker lines, none of that fading on the outsides, near the outseam and under the pockets. no washes, a few months of not so regular wear.

excuse the messy house, were remodeling...
