Did bencap say why his friend was carrying a gun?

[bencap]

yeah, he tapered those 501's to nearly skin tight. i wasn't there, so i don't know why he was holding a gun. but, he's fresh out of jail and rides a motorcycle so its not too weird, right?

PAYOFF WAS WORTH IT.

Payoff was worth it for how awesome they looked in pictures, but those jeans were done when they got to that point. What I mean to say, is that by the time a pair of Nudies is properly broken in, they are also more often than not broken beyond reasonable repair. I say this having destroyed more than 2 pairs of Nudies in less than 9 months.

Dude should wash his Even Stevens because they have stretched out and the fit looks a bit weird in the crotch region...a nice warm soak will tighten them up. That pair looks like it has some life left in it.

^^ nice interesting wear on the year old one! is it my eyes or is there a large difference in fading between the denim before and after the knee/shin area???

[cloudhands69]

It is just your eyes. There is no perceptable difference whatsoever.

You mean, a large difference between the two pairs of jeans worn by gentlemen who would definitely fade jeans quite differently?

no, just that huge darker block at the bottom of the jeans.

[shimshimhae]

he was being sarcastic. as you can tell from the picture, he rolls up his jeans at the end...

[Charlie Delta]

They were infact really big cuffs, cuffed a couple of times and handstitched to stay in place.

He then let them out after about a year of wear, hence the difference in colour.

No different types of denim used in these pants

(different pair of Mister Freedom jeans worn in the picture Tmadd quoted btw)

what do you define as "beyond reasonable repair"

i, for one, have no problem wearing a pair of jeans with a few holes here and there

[iGIT]

Bad pictures, i should take better pictures. These suck ass.

18 months, worn about 2 days a week., thats why they aren't that extreme in the wear.

Seat area is getting very thin due to loads of bike riding.

diors at 10 months, worn on and off.

first wash.

[Quinnskimo]

just finished a couple repairs. I'll probably have to send these in for a professional repair job in the next 6 months to revitalize them a bit (they'll deserve it), but I love these jeans. I don't think any other jean compares in terms of quality to that of the samurai.

forgive me. i have a lot of pictures here, but there's a lot of good stuff to see.
