[laxlife1234]

I just updated in the other thread about a week ago, but am re-updating because I got a new camera. They are about 2 months and a week old.

I've been working on these gap skinny selvedge. about just over a year and a half with maybe 3-4 washes and 2 hot soaks. i just couldn't pass up on a good deal and i feel that i've gotten good results and responses. these might be retired soon as well.

[hamaien]

^ Wow, nice. Fade kind of reminds me of Dior.

yep, are you a customer that has came thru before?

[chungster]

yup i came by a couple of weeks ago over spring break. your jeans are sick dude, inspiring

[khoumphonh]

fasho thanks. i've been trying to upgrade to iron heart 301s because they're one of the only that are a good cut for me but self edge is sold out on my size. so keeping on these till i can pick some up.

[chungster]

that sucks man..i'd like to see what you'd do to a pair of iron hearts..good luck finding a pair!

[meroswarrior]

Damnn. Those are the most faded 1969 GAP selvage I have seen

[BlueOctoberFan]

My ALD Royal Darktones finally got their first wash after 5.5 months of wear. Here's the results:

I'm rather pleased with the results. This is actually the most contrast I've ever had on combs... Now I just need to get the crotch reinforced before continuing with them.

Finally got around to photographing(photos dont do them justice) my SG1105s, 9 months wear

[k4727]

[whozdrew?]

Slubbier than I would have guessed

[blackfuture]

Looks a lot like PBJ denim, right down to the selvage line. Looks good.

looks good indeed but some parts don't look like PBJ denim. Those shots of the back pockets show fading that's streaky without being "pebble-like" (the way PBJs normally are). That remind me of Flatheads

[k4727]

exactly, they are like a mix, the jean before this sreies was actually a colab with the flat head

[Max Power]

So this my IH 634S-B, worn for approx. 5-6 months now, lost track. I wore them to some punk shows (Street Dogs, Roger Miret) lately, so the first wash is approaching.

[Plalai04]

2 years old 6-7 washed

[SLAB]

current rotation

from left to right

- Warehouse 660 (2nd run) - worn for a month or 7-8

- Samurai 0500XX - about 5 months

- Warehouse 1001XX 15th - about 2 weeks

[Max Power]

^great stuff plalai and SLAB! Rep where I can.

For completeness' sake:

my current rotation 0905SP and LVC 201, both approx. 1 month in. There's some potential in them, I think.
