After lurking too long, it's time to take the plunge

First pair of raws, they are non selvedge, and cost me €60.

Most of the fading is done by working and skating i guess.

Carhartt tender pants 13.5 OZ, 1+ year of wear, about 1,5 washes a month?

most accurate color in this picture

Local tailor saved my ass quite a few times

Any feedback is welcome!

Enjoying the change of ground scenery...Really get an idea of the evolution of the jeans as the surrounding weather changes, pretty cool...

what difference a wash can make. lookin good.

[shinobi2000]

ha ha ha, damn Medine! Pulizter prize worthy reporting with that photo essay of your jeans through the seasons. Too bad the lighting couldn't be controlled. Your wintery shot of them post repair is so much darker than your fall leaves shot.
