Apparently you are sloppy.

Apparently you are sloppy.

truth i got all these little stains on my lap....

from food.. ofcourse

[watchman]

my washes have all been in a washing machine, and most if not all were hot water. the color on 811's doesnt just bleed out easily, you can put them through a lot of washing and they will still be dark as hell.

[DEPHT]

It says 872's are sanforized...should I still soak or no? I want to get most shrinkage out of the way but on BiG's site it says there is very minimal stretching. The stiffness of the denim is actually one of my favorite aspects of raw denim so I try not to soak if it's not necessary.....

Tweedle's post in the evo thread inspired me to do an update myself... 7 and a bit months - 2 washes

[tweeds]

ctazza - those are very nice!

[evilgeniusdan]

Beautiful.. man I need to start wearing mine more often.

Hey guys, here are my Eternal 811s after around 5 months. Haven't washed them yet.

[ExileOnMainSt]

Eternals never ceases to amaze me, looking good everyone.

Eternaldaikon -> you should wash those, Eternals have indigo to spare and they will bring out a nice blue after the wash.

[watchman]

[beatle]

Nice repair job on the back pocket...and overall really nice update...

[Dex_star]

details on schedule plz watchman

[chantheman]

really nice watchman +rep

[eternaldaikon]

ExileOnMainSt: Not too sure if I want to give them a wash yet. I think I'm gonna wait for another month. Can't wait to see how they turn out though.

watchman: Your Eternals look amazing. I too am curious as to what your wash schedule was.

[chrisj]

watchman: NICE, looks like a some pretty rigorous wear and some avid washing

cttazza: looking very nice. im liking how the indigo is changing color.. or that might be the pcture... great photos and great fading

just put my 811s in the wash today.

warm wash no soap hang dry

came out nice, was afraid that there would be streaks. will post up pictures after the break..

right now they are nearing their 3mth birthday.

oct21 - present

[watchman]

thanks for the compliments. the eternals were worn everyday for like 5 months, then rotated between the sammies and some other stuff. the first wash was in january 07, and i think they have had 6/7 washes by now.

Eternal 877's 10th Anniversary Editions NATURAL INDIGO:

[totally epic]

I'm sorry, but that denim gives me a headache.

[rome1]

looks like blue brush strokes. kinda mesmerising(sp).

[theetruscan]

That denim, along with the denim on the 872s, looks really gaudy and awful at first, but the pairs I've seen well broken in (of the 872s) look awesome. The problem is, I don't think I have the patience to get through that initial window of gaudiness.

[chantheman]

those 10th anniversarys came out a little while ago right? i thought i saw pics of them a few months back

[braid]

I'm sorry, but that denim gives me a headache.

I totally agree, no pun intended. Personally I find the streaky denim on these and 872 are the ugliest jeans out there. Perhaps they're different in person.

Funny Eternal makes my favorite denim (811) and least favorite (872).

[viv1984viv]

Um - I posted about these on page 34 ( i think ) no one seemed bothered by em.

I think the fabric pictured ontop of the jeans in the picture in my post is a sample of the denim that the 877s would eventually be made from.

Yeah, interesting, the fabric is made from 2 warps, one thick, one less thick, obviously for the 877 rather than dye both warps the same one is dyed heavy and one light.... when woven you get that mad streaky striation effect.

Im really impressed by eternals recent products- certainly doing wild innovation with fabric, weave and dye thats certainly, for me at least on a par with sugarcane.

Id LOVE to own some 877 but I already have the 868 from the first limited batch so cant really justify it....

EDIT - wow, watchman, your jeans are amazing...

[btkrull]

hey guys. i just picked up a pair of 811s and after reading through the thread, i'm still left with not enough answers.

Hip flare always seems to go away with time. Crotch bulge . . . not so much.

damn this huge crotch of mine. i'll put up fit pics in a little while and see what you guys think:D

[Vanquish Gold]

What do you guys think of this pair of distressed eternal?

http://item.rakuten.co.jp/yield/et-p-878/

Yes or Nay?

[beatle]

Yay...........

[dino might]

yeah, those look pretty legit. other than that business going on around the calves.. id wear them for free, didnt pay attention to the price, but predistressed stuffs usually through the roof from my experience, wouldnt buy them myself, not until i have lots of expendable income..
