First wash on my FHxNFxTY Flathead 3xxx 14.5 denim

 

3 months of solid wear on them. I'm not the hardest on my jeans so theyre not super drastic.

 

 

Don't know about everyone else but this stage of the fading is one of my favorites, I love the bright blues and the little bits of white that start to poke through.

6 month mark is my favorite. By then you have a solid idea of where they're heading

X post from Nudie thread.

Nudie Gunnar size M dry organic denim.

Been thinking of taking some pictures of this shirt for a while now.

But I never got around to it until now.

I am not super happy with the pictures. But it was the best I could do at the moment.

209 days 3 machine washes and it is due for another wash tonight.

Nice narrow chainstitch

Truest colors are where they're more blue, the ones taken further away. I'm fucking in love with how these are coming along... they're everything I've wanted in a pair of jeans and more.

 

Best shot of how they look in person.

Thanks guys!

 

I love how the threads look when they pop. To be honest, I think they're holding up fine for 10 months. Especially considering their unsanforized and cotton-stitched... and have you seen what Rain at SESF/Darn-it can do?? 

 

Thanks to her I think any jeans can last forever!
