[vitasoy]

^ same, those are just so damn nice.. and you haven't even worn them for a year yet right pat?

[pat!!]

b_F your collection should be framed LOL

and vitasoy been definitely over a year haha

[Gilangaditya]

nice jawns pat! +rep

[burningbright]

pat thats amazing work that you have put into your pair. although im not a fan of such contrasting fades, you deserve +rep for your dedication.

Agreed.

I'd be more of a fan if so many denim companies weren't trying to imitate what Pat has so laboriously and lovingly done. Granted, we will always be able to distinguish the genuine article from the pre-wash, pre-distressed garbage that's out there, it still doesn't help that so many companies try and imitate this look and fail epically.

I must admit that the temptation to go all Tanya Harding and crowbar some of these dudes in the knees who wear the pre-comb jeans is really tempting sometimes. Though I'd probably miss due to temporary blindness caused by the shiny glint of their Monarchy douche-wear.

Anyway great work Pat. I'm approaching the 5 month mark on my '05 Jin+Zeroes and still haven't posted any pics yet. Trying to make it to the 6 month mark at the beginning of December before they get a wash. Hopefully the homemade cherry chipotle barbecue sauce I slopped on them will come out. I'll do some pre/post pics then.

[pat!!]

well said burningbright! I've always thought the pre-distressed pairs were unattractive, but to each their own! thanks for the compliments & good luck with the chipotle bbq sauce haha

[Hajduk]

pré wash?

they look short...

how much hemmed?

and YES! Gordon is a dude!

[Gilangaditya]

^ yes its pre soak, hemmed to 32 haha

[chantheman]

hopefully the inseam is good after wash

[Gilangaditya]

^ me too, and hopefully so better in the waist, now it so tight huh

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well..it won't get wider with a soak/wash...

[chantheman]

^ me too, and hopefully so better in the waist, now it so tight huh

if your waist is tight pre soak its going to be hell after a wash...

[vitasoy]

gilangaditya, i think the inseams going to be fine, but you should definitely worry about the waist.. from your pictures, it looks like it's going to be a pain post soak or wash

[ninja07]

or you can leave the waist out of the soak and wear it till it stretches out before your next soak? Strange but to me those pics did not show the waist as that tight. overall fit is on point!

[Gilangaditya]

thanks for advice everyone. i will soak today, hopefully waist not to tight as hell

[chantheman]

i love the feel of freshly washed Texas cotton...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

or the feel of the 15oz denim used on the 66-2. a wash makes them so crispy again

SU1 @W34, instead of [the usually prescribed] SD1. they're actually looser than they appear on pix__ & wear them lower with a bit of slouch.

[Gilangaditya]
