The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

My Eternal 872's. 2 months 1 wash.

[calatrava]

those eternals are nice and streaky. that is quite a bit of creasing and fading for the time

[JFleshman]

Here are my SEXSC02 after 2mo of hard wear. I'm planning to wear them on and off with my new Ori's starting tomorrow.

Intial cold-soak, 2 machine washes (New Years Eve and ECC Yo-Yo Contest [mud, vomit, XXXX])

These guys stretched very nicely. The slim cut molds to your body rather than restricting it. It could be the thin denim used. Even before washing them the denim was very thin.

Love these guys.

[apocalypse later]

Those look awesome except the crotch looks ridiculous.

skull 5010xx 6x6 at around 4.5 months with one initial hot soak and a light hand washing not too long ago. unfortunately these ended up being a bit too slim for my tastes. i love the way they're turning out so far though so i'm just going to keep it up while my thighs just keep getting bigger and bigger from the daily commute. the back picture came out very sunlight-accurate in my opinion, if not just a bit overemphasized.

[sidneylo]

those are pretty nice, just out of curiosity are those retired now? are you moving on to another jean, getting new flatheads or just going out on top?

Another jean soon... haha I am pretty sick of denim right now but that will change once I touch raw denim again...

[habia]

How does the denim feel at this point after so many wears and washes?

My 3001s have 7.5 months wear, but only one soak and still feel tough.

Are you thinking of moving on because you are tired of your 3001s or because you feel they don't have a ton more wear left in them?

I'm thinking my 3001s should last at least 5 years if not more...

[sidneylo]

As Kiya noted sometime after the SFxSE party... jeans at this point in their life are so washed and worn that they just feel look like prewashed jeans. I definitely did not adhere to any significant period of time without a wash. I went about 4-5 months before I began machine washing... eventually machine drying as well.

I am moving on because for the past 10+ months they've been worn every single day and it's taken quite a toll. I will continue to wear these jeans along with other pairs... they will last me for many years to come.

Yo Fleshman, for a little guy, you've got quite the dumpa. No homo.

[corned beef]

weezkers and hunnykombz of my Helmut Langs. lame shitty pics I know, will take detailed ones later. The photobooth distorted the color a bit but you get the idea. These have been tapered an assload and hug my body like no other denim Ive worn, quite the tight fuckers. They are also incredibly resilient to any form of stretching at all which sucks in my case, most likely because theyve been soaked I believe two times by soundbomber and zehero on seperate occasions. word.

they fit tight as fuck which accounts for the wear in the short amount of time Ive had them, but something about this denim is just really unique. Relatively soft, but gets affected fairly easy by everyday wear,

710xx, two weeks of constant wear

flash was used. they're a touch darker, the fades aren't that dramatic

[ctazza]

Wow Sidney - those FH's are amazing - probably in the top-10 of Sufu evolutions. Great job sir! Also still quite dark on the lower leg. These belong in the XXX gallery.

^you mean you never even soaked these? how are you going to deal with the shrinkage? or will it never touch water? i hope you won't get caught in the rain.

Never washed doesn't necessarily mean never soaked...I hope.

[ndmhxc]

everytime i feel like my jeans are gonna shrink too much for me to get in, i just throw them on for a half hour when they are half way through drying...it stretchs it back perfectly...

[xcoalesce]

nope i havent soaked these as they fit semi loose/tight enough where if it shrinks i should be fine wearing it but at that time when i wash it i plan on getting a new pair of jeans to break in.

thanks for all the rep also

[watchman]

man your creases are going to shift, which is no fun. great jeans though

[datasupa]

you don't need to ever wash. there's that one pair of nudies worn raw for 4 years, for example. of course they were disgusting....but it can be done.

[corbu]

co2 drycleaning those 005s will clean them up without shrinking them or damaging the fabric like normal drycleaning does

[JFleshman]

Yo Fleshman, for a little guy, you've got quite the dumpa. No homo.

I have no idea what that means. It sounds like a compliment with the "No homo" part.

Little as in small, or little as in young?

I have never heard "dumpa" ever used. Sounds Jewish. I gotta look that shit up.

[fndmybetterhalf]

it means you look like youre fairly skinny (legs) but your ass got some badunkadunk on that junk.

[JFleshman]

Thought so. Guys say I paint my pants on. On the other hand, girls love the pseudo black ass.
