The Evolution of Jeans: Pictures, Scones and Tea

[Crat]

^crat Great collection

The 2 first ones are looking still very wearable.

And are the JB not fitting you anymore or why did you lost interess on them?

Crotch of the Canes has gone and the denim on the JBs isnt very nice tbh.

Neither fit well anymore either (put on weight).

Warehouse 660, billion wears, billion washes, I dunno.

Could perhaps become a part of the Jeansmuseum of heaviest fadings some day?

Just hit 2 years and so thrashed:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They had their 18th wash two days ago, but the right leg is just too stained to ever look clean again. These have been a great ride with really hard wear for two years. I've skied in them over 100 times, climbed the world's tallest freestanding mountain - Mount Kilimanjaro - in them, and even got engaged in them. 1 month to go in HWDC2!

Cander49 The hero of breaking in heavy weight raw denim the hardest core way!!!!

Edwin Ed67, these were my first pair of raws. worn for approx 18 months almost everyday. many repairs (crotch was repaired three times, two poor repairs by my local tailor plus one perfect darning repair by mr handy denim repair), many washes.

 

 

[volvo240thebest]

TCB 60's, lost count of number of wears, anyway more than 12 months and less than 18 months.

I've already said it many times but these are definitely my all time favourite pair. I'll definitely buy another pair and do it again!

I gave these Lee 101Z Selvage to my dad...I think 3 or 4 years ago. He just wore and washed them like all his other jeans.
