Levis 1944 S501xx three hot soaks...

[>++fishb0neR]

i have an interesting project to share with you sufu. for the month of july i will be working a job as a construction worker (yes, a skinny sufu kid like me a construction worker). so for the duration of my job i will be wearing a pair of raw levis 501 stfs.

just wanted to say i for one will be interested in the progress...

i work in a field office for a construction project, so i haven't been about to get out and get as grimey as i'd like with my denim..

tons of Levis and Lee's around the office, though i doubt they are LVC's or vintage by any stretch- regardless, some great wear on site

hard to get interesting fades when you're fucking with autoCAD, lol

I'm about to do a similar project myself. I\ve been wearing my 31" APC Rescues to work for 2 months, and now that I have my 30" APC NS, I'm going to give them a few months, and see which turn out better.

The Rescues stretched out far too much (around 36", i'm roughly a 33/34"), which is why I got smaller NS's. The Rescues have descent fades, but nothing too high in contast, and really weak honeycombs. In comparison, my NS already have more honeycomb fades after 3 days of framing a garage.

[rome1]

[Egpt]

stupid 100% cotton threads

These are my Skulls 5010xx after one month

The pics were made at night with flash so no ideal circumstances. But anyway I just wanted to share these

[Egpt]

i am yet to understand why people show jeans in this thread who still don't have any kind of fade at all to them. fuck this shit

[Guest El Salvador]

Haha you are nice man. Thanks! Jeeezz:rolleyes:

[datasupa]

this is evolution of jeans

evolution is a process, not a destination

if we saw just the end product the thread would have to be named the denouemont of jeans. ok maybe not exactly that, perhaps people could come up with a better name

[Darkadious]

stupid 100% cotton threads

that has little to do with it.

def sucks.

no big, ive fixed the exact same rip on jeans of mine before, and im no seamstress. anyone who skates and falls/slides on his ass probably has similar damage. depends how professional you want it to look or not, i personally kind of like the frankenstein aesthetic, gives them character, and satisfaction of doing the job yourself.

DUM, mom gotta sewing machine?

du hast read my mind

[ndmhxc]

:/

this has now happened on my flatheads first, and now my skulls. is it just the way my ass is in the jeans? or poor stitching? or what...

[sean_]

i wont stand for this skull bashing, theyre infinitely better quality than nudies

yea the stitching can kinda be a bitch but i havent had to repair the crotch like 7 different times

poly.. give those fuckers a wash and lets see how they end up

[Dex_star]

yea i dont see why all the discern for skulls

my favorite jeans ever... and i had eternals, pbj, samurai bks, lees, SDAs, 45rpms, etc.

[Guest DUM]

I think I'll take them to BiG when I'm in NY (very soon)? I know I could take it anywhere, or even do it myself...but I wanna go for the overkill and have them do it..that's where I bought them anyway.
