Samurai S5000VX 4 months, 1 wash at 1 month (drinky vomity)

they're on hold until i can get the crotch holes properly patched up.

[Lerglas]

Well this is my LVC 505 ´67 after 9 months almost 10, I´ve worn theme non stop for the last month and finally i´m getting some results.

Preview of my canes at about 7 months with one soak in the North Sea No hard wear since Autumn and Winter made up the duration of wear time and I don't do much during those months, apart from clubbing.

x-post from the AW denim thread...

Grifters, 65 days (approx.), one tumble wash (normal detergent, normal cycle)

Posted these 0505xx about a month ago, but these pics are better.

Thinking about retiring them, because they are too slim. Maybe I'll up size on some 5000vx's.

Bonus Sane pic I had on my camera. Still up on the Hell Gate.

[Naero]

wow those sams look great!

I think Sanes throw looks great along with the denim of course.

[eastcoastrider27]

Thanks everyone.

Not to get too off topic, but I don't think SANE did that throwie. I think JA probably did it, because of the XTC in the fill and he's up all over that bridge. I could be wrong though.

[40ozprophet]

JA is one crazy whitey. He has a funny accent too.

[eastcoastrider27]

Probably the most prolific bomber in history. Definitely one of my favorites.

for sure. although if cheeese had been around longer, he would have taken that spot! he had a 300 letter throwie a while back. but he got busted i think. ah well.

how long do you wear it, the effects looks disappointing...

[Serge d Nimes]

These are my Jean Shops. I just gave them their first wash in a sink with cold water and Dr Bronners after 5.5 months. I thought they could go a little longer before the first wash, but I guess I got anxious. They are dyed very well, so I think they look great and will look even better in six more months.

How are you liking those Jean Shops. I have a pair of the rockers and they are looking really good right now. I should post some pics. I have been wearing them for roughly a year. I like the small intricacies of the jeans. Selvedge crotch, orange pockets, back pocket lining, leather tag, etc. Have you seen the jean shops with the X denim. The stuff looks pretty good.

[Kamikaze]

Sams look good!

How many months and washes?

[blm14]

Probably the most prolific bomber in history. Definitely one of my favorites.

Dont forget about revs! I remember walking the 1/9 tunnel and every fucking metal girder from 96th street to about 14th street is tagged. I mean like every single one.

[joey_formal]

^^ those jean shops are breaking in super nice

[headtowall]

Samurais and Jean Shops look sick.

On the Jean Shops, it looks like you've got some significant wear due to the bottom of the front pocket bags.

[roundhouse]

cheep - how many washes now?

[cheep]

i forget.... these actually need a wash i think.

[headtowall]

My Nudie Conny jacket was a victim of the same cave as my PBJs. Here is the aftermath.

Haven't done a real wash yet, but it looks like this as of today. Close to a year old.

[seaskull]

Thais at 4 months and 4 washes, 1 wash per month... too humid to keep wearing them for more than 6 months at a go. Haven't washed them since this posting...due to shifting light conditions, the shades of indigo varies in the photos.

Enjoy or yawn at them ;-)

And, of course, don't forget to mention that sidney and his pics made you go on a hunting frenzy for it. Credit where credit is due.
