Quick picture of my skulls at 6 months.

Oh my god, I just noticed that there is small holes starting to develop in my combs. Is there anyting I can prefent them from ripping? Washing maybe?

[sunkenshoes]

Here's a picture. Not the best, but you can tell where it is.

I guess it would be almost impossible to re-inforce that and still have the same fading pattern?

Come on man, you can put few stitches by hand and its fixed!

[poof]

didnt like the fit from knees down so i altered it finally. Thank god, the selvage is still there.

btw, anyone whose 5010xx one wash black denim faded? i need some motivation. seems like 99% are indigo skulls

As said above, you could just sew around the circle and then back and forth to cover it kind of. I'd check out the denim repairs thread. It's filled with good ideas. I get what you mean about messing up fading patterns if you added a new piece of denim, though. I'd guess in the end it would look different from your other combs. just use some dark fabric or something thin. The hole looks tiny.

Thanks guys. I'll look up some info. The problem is that there is more of these holes starting to develop at the same place.

Oh. When was your last wash / how long have you been wearing them? If you sweat a lot behind the knees and or in the legs, the cellulose in your sweat may be breaking down the cotton fibers which the denim is composed of. Or are the holes developing just due to friction

I've been wearing them for like a hundred days now. Also mostly during the summer. I had a couple of times that the legs of the jeans were a bit dampy after skating. Should I hold out for another 20 days? Cause I was planning to do a first wash after 4 months of wear (~120 days).

[midnight]

I personally would probably just do a soak now with a little bit of soap to try and clean the denim around the combs, but if you wanna wait 20 days i dont think things would get too much worse.

Made Better Pictures

Those look really great, leonard leroy. Did you go a while before your first soak or wash? The whiskers and combs look really defined and contrasting.

[Leonard Leroy]

8 months-ish or so? Gave em their first wash then.

[Leonard Leroy]

There we go.

did you size down on this? if yes, how many size down?

thanks

[Leonard Leroy]

god no I didn't size down. true to size and I still had to stretch to fit at 29.

[salaami]

im most def not a man of the cross, but i like the idea of cutting off the tab and sewing over it while a bit of it peeks out. hey, why does everyone else's ''shitty pics'' always look better than my shitty pics?

[BoRe]

Why don't you just compare the measurements on the blue in green site with your grim tims?
