The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[M.O.A]

thats some dramatic fading

[timpoblete]

SSDS that I've been wearing to work. This is like.. the sixth wash, I think. The first wash was about 3 weeks after I got them

Before:

After:

Whoah, that's some awesome fading. I actually liked them better befoe they were washed, in the top pic, but the after shot isn't bad either. Pre-washed, they kinda look like one of the distressed PRPS jeans on the PRPS website (http://prpsgoods.com/imgs/card2_img_1.jpg and http://prpsgoods.com/imgs/card2_img_1_7.jpg), of course not distressed to that degree. Very well done sir.

And may I repeat the question, what kinda work were you doing in those?

[red]

how about pics of the back and honeycombs.

[the black arm]

mr p. - those are phenomenal . . one of the best jeans I've seen with only a year wear. do you ride a motorcycle in them daily? incredible

[prufrock]

mr p the distressing in your julians are ridiculous. not my style but props none the less.

-later days.

[Astérix]

[red]

[__Nicholas]

thanks yup those are the 420s

[burtreynolds]

damn nicholas i like the jeans but they make your ass look baggy as hell.

[Guest jeffvyain]

can someone please explain to me why everyone gets a hole near the ankle? i'm not seeing any wear there on mine, and i just don't get it. i personally am glad for the lack of a hole, so i'd kinda just like to know what to keep not doing...

[horriblyjollyjinx]

because the legs rub against eachothers more when they bunch around your ankles.

Nicholas,

I have a few pairs of the cowboy cut slim wrangler. The fit is nice if you can get over the massive rise. I have seen some of them fade pretty well, but I was never able to achieve anything too great.

Yea, my ass looks baggy in any jeans though, because I dont have much of an ass

the rise is pretty intense but i think i can deal with it

It comes from heel of your shoe stepping on the bottom rear of the jeans leg. This happens if the jeans are slightly too long and the ankle is wide enough to fall past your shoes.

[Guest jeffvyain]

yea that would explain holes at or near (if you wear turnups) the hem...but i suppose jinx probably hit the nail on the head. it just didn't occur to me because it was 5:30 am for me and i didn't realize that not all people were as bowlegged as i

Here is my pair of Eternal 811 once again. 3rd machine wash...these are the before pictures, I will post the after when they're dry.

[will_i_am]

eternal denim fades so crazy. nice.

mr. p did you skate or anything in them? or just hang out.

[startmeup]

that is fuckin smurf

[Ott]

And may I repeat the question, what kinda work were you doing in those?

I work in a shipping warehouse. Basically I lift lumber/concrete all day and drive a forklift around.

how about pics of the back and honeycombs.

There's basically no honeycombing. They aren't very tight and I don't starch the backs.

I did pick off the annoying back pocket stitching though.

My [Nudie] Svenska at 21 weeks (147 days). I took two pics which are pretty much the same, but w/e. They show slightly different amounts of contrast.

[homi29]

can u post a pic of just the jeans and the back of them

they look interesting how they fade

[crisis]

Tabris, are those the svenska special editions? I've always wondered how they would turn out with all that streaking, lookin good

[horriblyjollyjinx]

those are sweet Tabris. Would love more pics if it's possible!

2000db's eternals are also sweet!
