The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[armardo]

Hey guys, here are my Nudie Super Slim Kims.

They may seem big but i am a short guy and these babies were hella tight on me, I am about 156cm tall (5" 1') so SHORT! lol

Had them for about 3 years now, wore them everyday for about 5 months, then washed, and worn, and then for a while hadnt washed them so theyre smelling now.

Me and daddy made some new jeans, similar to SSK fit but longer rise. You could say April 77ish or Cheap Mondayish.

Stretch denim, one soak, fading is starting to show on the crotch, tried taking pics but the lighting in my room is shit.

excuse the ugly under garments HAHA!

[cheapmuthafukr]

you beat them up, cheap

the whiskering is deep; nice button fly atari

you done good

thanks... the whiskering is really 3d... i smoothed them out before the pic to avoid shadows... thats actually with the fabric flat.

[headtowall]

Cheap, I gotta see pics with flash for extreme contrast. Yours are never cartoonishly blue like a lot of jeans in this thread.

[cheapmuthafukr]

hmm... those are with flash, and 2 60 watt bulbs. i tried to get the most realistic color i could...

here is no flash(and not much light)

and too much flash:

[headtowall]

Realism Shmealism. Either way they're turning out great.

I noticed that you don't have much diagonal stuff on the thighs. My PBJs don't either. But Kixslf's do. Not sure what causes this.

[cheapmuthafukr]

if the thighs are a bit loose, you get more of those.... the thighs on these are pretty tight on me, so none... maybe one line.

[Chicken]

^ from my experience, those diagonals happen more with looser fitting jeans. you most likely won't get them in your pbjs unless you size up and/or you are toothpick skinny.

cmf, my man, nice progress. love the fact that you aren't babying them.

EDIT: and shit you beat me to headtowall's concern.

mylifedestroyeddenim

[meta]

andewhalls. I wore these for like 30 days, decided I didn't like the fit, and now I am selling them. I took pics, and realized it might be useful to post them on here to show how fucking quick they fade.

What the hell is wrong with those jeans? Splotches of fade here, buncha' blue over there. Is it a special wash?

[still]

just before 3rd wash..

[40ozprophet]

absolutely beautiful. recently ive fallen in love with eternals, and if i cant the 21oz SDAs, then i htink ill pick up these. superb!

[sweetmofo]

plain simple design but the depth of the colour is just amazing.

really make those catwhiskers and honey combs stand out.

brilliant job!

still, how many months of work did you put into them?

[turcy.]

advice needed here guys, here are my nudies sjdj after 3.5 months of solid wear, pretty much worn every day to school riding back and forth on my bike about 4 times a day:

(pics are flash version and non flash version on all angles, brightness/contrast had to be adjusted in some since i took them with no artificial light, and it's dark/rainy outside)

combs:

front:

side:

seat:

let me know what you guys think, i'm really confused as to how to wash as well, should i just soak with some gentle detergent, or just wash on a gentle cycle with some special detergent? or should i not wash at all?

[ktouran6923]

you should realize they're just jeans

do whatever you like.....

(however imo you should wear them more)

[UglyLoser]

could use some more wearing before wash.

uhh check out the encyclopedia. lots of links to how to wash there.

[turcy.]

yeah i think i'll keep wearing them until i move at the end of april, that'll put them at 5 months, and by then it'll be summer here and i can do an ocean wash 8) thanks for the input though guys, it's just been getting brighter here recently (spring time comes early in victoria) and i've been able to see the fading with my naked eye, when it used to take stage lights to notice it

[somsjeans]

charles:

i'd give them another 2-3 months and then wash them. they are looking good now, but should look GREAT with a little bit more wear

[SpillSuppressor]

I found that the crotch of these 5 month old S5000VX looked like it was starting to blow out, so I cant wear them any longer the way they are. I figured I would soak them today so I can repair them without any more shrinkage etc. Since the sun is out I took some pictures too. I'm planning on using the darning repair method explained on the 45rpm site. Have any of you guys had experience with this problem? Do you think that that method will be enough to stop the hole or do I need to do something else? (I've included an outside and inside view of the wear) I really don't want these things to blow out...

Also, they're still soaking, but it looks like the right leg is twisting more than it was before. Are all my wear marks going to be totally out of place or do you think they'll still hold up?

[deadpan]

They look awesome Spill...what have you been doing to stress the crotch?...actually, do I wanna know...?!

[SpillSuppressor]

I gave them a pretty good hot soak before I started wearing them, but I think there was still quite a bit of starch still in the fabric (they even tinted the water a little bit yellow when I first put them in to soak today). As I wore them normally (I just wear them to work, don't ride my bike in them or anything), the friction/stiffness of the fabric started to wear it down really quick. That's my best guess anyway. I really don't think the sandpaper I hide in my boxers had anything to do with it (10).

5 months ? are you hungover from patty day drinking or is that 100% true ?

damn you and your georgeous jeans man .. dammmnnnn the both of you ...

Can you link the 45rpm guide, I can't find it anymore?

Basically, what you need to do is put a piece of fabric of your choice, I chose denim, on the inside and then just sew over the hole and of course the edges of the fabric.

It's really easy to do, making it look as good as 45 does takes a bit of training though.

You probably want to match the direction of the weave of the supposed pice of denim denim and the direction of the stitches to the denim.

I really like your jeans btw.

[M.O.A]

wow those sammies look amazing. I hate ripped crotches on jeans, its like the story of my life.

[LIVENUDEGIRLS]

These look great. Can you post pics of them on?
