These are truly a thing of beauty!

 

It takes some real dedication to break-in such a slubby denim.

 

The photo composition & lighting really do the jeans justice. 

 

It's all in the presentation. IMO.

x-post from LVC thread. some more pics over there. 


 


here's my LVC 501 '47 at 120days/4months with 4 hot soaks (2 initial, then 2 every 2 months). they are coming along well although i have to say these are my slowing fading jeans to date.

What a beautiful denim evolution seen here!!

I can't stop watching those strongest fadings and wear and tear reflecting millions of stories in them.

Please update a back side pick of them too.

And never ever throwing them away.

Keep them alive for ever.

They deserve it and have reached the HolyGrail Status by far

And Kevincep

Your jeans are looking great already too!!! Awesome whiskers and combs!

Rock them hard and keep us updated on them

After the contest, I still wear it on the weekend for the rest of the year 2014.

Will now hang dormant indefinitely till I feel like wearing it again.

@stukovx those are gonna be real nice with some more wear and wash.

 

After Googling > PBJ XX-012 > Images, this jean or other PBJ models with the same denim, quickly made it to the top of my "Next Jeans" list.

 

Thanks!  B)

10 months effective wear 

3 soaks

1 machine wash

 

*I haven't worn these for a long time now.

 

**Pretty damn close to actual color. No flash or filters. 

 

**The washing machine caused all those crazy lightning bolt looking vertical fades.

                                                          Good for $82 pair of 14.5oz Japanese raw sanforized selvedge denim

                                  Crooked stitching on patch...but who cares? No one is looking at the stitching on the patch

                                The 14.5oz denim is actually pretty nice. Recommended to someone new to raw denim jeans

                                              Nice fading at the knee. I like that the fades are white and not all dirty looking

Update on Diesel Tepphar Turbo denim, progress and fit. Haven't been counting the days but I think they must have had 110 days of wear approximately. They fade fast, the pictures don't really show the difference between the earlier pics, but it is significant. For one there is a hole starting on the pocket my wallet sits in. Trying to avoid a rip by wearing my wallet in the other pocket now.

By no means have I ever been a regular around here, and it's been a long time since I've posted anything. After doing some closet organizing this weekend, decided I wanted to post some of the jeans I've been wearing over the last 5 or so years. The photos suck; I don't have a good camera.

501xx / 508 Rigid / 1947 501xx / ROYs (RS1? Whatever he was selling through his website back in the day)

 

Both 501s I have and continue to wear in the field as a geologist... In fact I wore them both through my university undergrad, grad and summer work too.  I wash them often, spin cycle, usually too lazy to turn inside out... I couldn't even tell you how many times. The 47s were washed twice this week alone. I do home improvement and paint in them too. Comfy as all hell. Still give the 1947s casual wear, the standard XX not so much.

 

The 508s are office jeans that have had light field days on occasion. They look more faded in person.

 

The ROYs I still like to wear casually, especially cottaging.  I take them camping too. Never felt right working in them, I guess because they were the only ones of the group that didn't cost $30. 

 

Clearly I'm not getting mad 3d combs. I love the natural look on all these pairs though.
