The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[NAWNSCENTS]

I've been a lurker for 5 years, finally decided to post.

Not sure if I'm doing this correctly as there is no evolution within the picture; I wore these APC New Standards for two years and washed them last week, I like how they turned out.

Doesn't compare to yo_mj's pair however. Those are some marvelous looking Ironhearts.

Here is my pair of custom jeans from the Hartford Denim Company. 6 months of wear, just washed for the first time. The denim is Collect Co. Ltd. 13.5 oz. natural indigo, organic cotton made in Japan. Here is a closeup photo of the denim before use (photo credit - hartforddenimcompany.com):

Now for the jeans:

Customization includes a handpainted Japanese enso on the back pocket, as well as a sakura tree stitched into the front left pocket lining.

Detail of the sakura tree and hand cut and peened brass rivets

Denim lined front and back pockets with inner coin pocket

Custom "fingerprint" copper fly buttons made by a friend of the company, Ryan Andes

Signature Connecticut leather patch

FC 1108C :: Momo 701 :: Skull 5010 6x6

edit:

btw, tnx for the reps peeps.

*'found it interesting so i thought i'd share & take comparative side x side pix of how certain Okayama-made denim, no matter what brand or evo route you take them on, wind up with similar-looking hues/fades down the line. i suspect it's the kind of indigo grown & used in the region__ having similar dye properties, ie.

**both the momos & FCs have reached a "plateau" @this point ... half-life, but not necessarily past prime
