Thought I would put these up, one of the best fitting jeans I have ever owned.

Neuw — Johnny Tapered Raw

I was luckily enough to get one of the first pairs when I worked on the brand.

Here is their story

Starting to break them in.

8 Months

12 months — first wash

Very nice mate , I could be thinking about another member but didnt you start on a pair of Denime xx a while back ? Would love to see some updates on those

[swiss-jeansfreak]

Already posted some of those pics on the HWD contest round 2.

Like after every 2 years I have a big question about which denim jacket and pants are ready to be downgraded from my outdoor to my new work clothes?

The following 2 jeans and denim jackets are fighting very hard since a long time to be the downgrading winner:

Jeans: Nudie Regular Ralf from about 2005 and Denime contest pants from Take 5 from 2010 worn between 2 and 4 years

Denim jackets: 2 Lee Storm Rider 101-LJ from 1960 and 1965, bought second hand in almost deadstock raw condition around 2000, both worn hard over the last 6 years by myself:

More pics on:

So can you folks help me in finding my decision. Which pants and denim jacket on the left or right hand side do you think, is more ready for starting the most difficult part as my work cloth?

A little update on these.

Now 25 months old with one wash, although haven't been wearing them so much in the last 8 months due to another pair.

[mnw1990]

Posted these in the LVC thread. Figured I'd post em here too.

My 1967 505's. had them for 4 or so years. Probably 2 years worth of wear.

Next to another pair of 67 505's with about 2 months wear.

x-post from N&F thread

My girlfriend and I went to the Boston Common today, figured it was a good time to try and get some proper pics. N&F Greencast weird guy, ~6 months total wear and several machine washes/dries. Sorry for the ugliest sneakers in the world I recently rediscovered in the back of my closet.

^Congrats to this nice denim evo from Junior and Jean-Luc

I just learned to know a new brand with promising fadings ahead.

And still a lot of life left in them which makes me happy to have them here for another long time with many more updates to come

Really can't wait to see some hard core worn in samples from them
