The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[nikesber]

uh i think he means criss cross

[dino might]

i dont think he does. things look pretty damn tight to be sitting indian style. but you could be right.

[Clench Million]

do you cross your legs like a girl?

Doing the dude style leg crossing actually puts a lot more pressure on the wrinkles in that location than girl style sitting (one leg at a time though)

[nikesber]

yeah i think youre right. he sits like how guys cross their legs. it does put pressure. if he sat crisscross then it wouldve gave him more contrast on the thighs i think

[dino might]

my rationale was that crossing and uncrossing his legs like a girl would put lots more friction on the whiskers there than guy style since everyones all on him for the contrast being so intense there.. still need to here from spill i suppose

[M.O.A]

some killer stuff comin through

[headtowall]

this is fucking impressive, i had to bump these.

I agree, but that's not my pair. I found the pic on the Samurai website. I would love for my jeans to fade that nice.

Do girls cross and uncross more than guys? I just thought the difference is guys rest an ankle of one leg on the knee of hte other, while girls wrap the leg tightly over hte other.

My legs fall asleep if I don't keep recrossing. Maybe i just have bad blood circulation though...

[dino might]

i wouldnt say they cross them any more or less than guys.

what i was saying was that obviously the ankle on the knee guy style wouldnt rub ones thighs together/create friction nearly as much as the thigh over thigh girl style would... is such a hypothesis really that confusing?

[SpillSuppressor]

Haha, maybe I should hold off posting these pictures and give you guys more time to speculate if I sit like a girl or do yoga or maybe I could be a professional gymnast. In anycase, here are some pictures as promised.

The top denim detail is a crease on my ass that gets rubbed alot. This is the closest I could think of to how sandpaper would wear these jeans. You can see how the fibers are breaking apart, and this is probably going to turn into a hole.

The second is a closeup of the "panther lines" on my thighs (p.s. can we start calling them that? "honeycombs" "wiskers" and "panther lines"). The denim texture is the same as the rest of the jeans around it, no broken fibers like the crease on the ass. These areas haven't been targeted specifically/sandpapered/clawed or whatever.

Finally, heres a shot of how I cross my legs on my bed (I do this at work too when I put my feet on my desk). So that's that. Though I encourage you guys to speculate as to how I "cheated." I like the attention.

Lies.........

[edwithoutahead]

These are my APC new standards. I keep an extra car key in my wallet, and when these were about a week old I fell on my butt while skating. For a while I just thought it was a weird shaped scrape, but after a while someone at work said something about the "key print" on my butt.

Here is my scones and tea (yes, I am a dork)

[constant struggle]

ugh twinings tea taste so bad

atleast their green tea...

[watchman]

their earl grey is delicious. Sammies do look great, even if people are arguing over whether or not theyre real

Finally decided to give my baby a wash.

Flat Head 3003's, worn 3-4 months (who the fuck counts the days, anyway?), hot washed at the laundromat.

Please show your blue Sugar Cane Hawaii jean pant. Look'n like they have some serious wear.

[andewhall]

Those Panther attacks are awesome....I think a new wear term has been born. I get them too from crossing the legs, mainly on the left leg.

[overmind1632]

WOW Carl, those flat heads look amazing

[Yakkd]

wow carl looks nice! how did you exactly unspecifically wash them??

[poly800rock]

not gonna lie, that's disappointing for nudies, and for 2 years and no washes

[evisu 2000]

it's weird that there is practically no fading on the combs.

[Samm]

I want to wash them but I am afraid they might fall apart.

I got a pair of Sammy's that my new project just to heavy to wear in the summer.

[selaviso]

carl... very nice how much?!?! haha great pair of jeans.

[jpgm]

nice subtle fade carl.

[zephyr11]

my only contribution, 7.5mths, 5 days a week (lots of febreeze n sun, no washes yet)...

pics by damienos, (THANX!)

lots of patched up areas around the crotch and knee...

colors are almost exactly true to what it is...

[Chicken]

those are some unnatural looking knee fades. nice boots, though. and i like the crazy combs forming from knee below.
