The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[kenthenoob]

that's some crazy wear, sidney. very nice!

[Double D]

Those cheap Mondays are a testement to the fact that actually wearing your jeans will result in a beautiful fade

I love the way straight after this post sidney posted his Flatheads and put things in context (and that's the best I've seen a pair of CMs look).

[neonlights]

sidney,

those are AMAZING.

[edmond]

sid can i have sex with those..??

howdy

i'm a new poster, i am the owner of a pair of Iron Army jeans (the Iros if I remember) and a pair of Nudies Dry Black Slim Jims. Just wanted to see what's good and post some pics of the Nudies. They have about 3 months of wear on them, the honeycombs are awesome. Wondering when I should wash them...it seems like most of the people around here say wait 6 months but I'm itching to get some fade out of these guys (if that's even possible). Then again I don't want to ruin the honeycombs or the soon to be here whiskers.

here's the pics:

Once again TiP makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It's nice to get that feeling for free.

i understand why those are great, i really do. they're really appreciated among all the "ive had my jeans for 2 months + rep please" posts,

but i feel like tehres something missing. they're just too characteristic of what the ideal denim fade should be.

does that make any sense?

either way, they're awesome.

[edmond]

872 pain in the ass to break in.. 3 months and still like new..

[poly800rock]

i think if you didn't rotate so many pairs you'd be happy with your progress on some of them.

[edmond]

yeah have 3 in rotation.. maybe 2 will do have to give the sams a rest for a while

[ktouran6923]

fuck I cant catch the color of these jeans at all, in real life there much more defined creases and faded more than the pictures show...

wear hard, wash often. if there is anyone in the contest i think my jeans look like it's cheaps, although his are a bit more contrasted in the whiskers. And it's because we both have washed countless times, but also wear them really hard.

[Tenchi]

Bad lighting, lazy pics, but meh these are at 1 yr now and 1 soak. RRDS size 30, worn, about 2 sizes loose, at work study and play

[watchman]

those are a year old? i have never seen nudies that old and un-worn looking.

[tyson31]

tenchi ... its time to kick the shit out of those.

[irbe78]

Sid those look amazing. How did you wash the jeans, machine and detergent? Hot/cold water???

[ruprecht]

SD103s owned for 16 months, worn solidly for about 11 . Wore them every day for four and-a-half months before first wash. A bunch of washes since then. Always at 40; always using Dr Bronners...

Indoors

[joey_formal]

[ruprecht]

[poly800rock]

sda's looking great, as i always say, indestructable in every way.

[kenthenoob]

[watchman]

those are looking really good. Fade looks great, i love how SDA's can take 16 months of wear and have no holes or blowouts.

[ruprecht]

Yeah, SDA's really are some of the best jeans out there. Great fade, great quality, great price. I really need to wear my 103's more often.
