@rocket:

any washes?

i got derailed by delusions of grandeur with the RAWWAR kicking off, but i realize that i probably have little chance of winning and with the shit weather here in chicago i've been back on the 25oz train. i still have a month to go probably until i see some bright blue with my own eyes.

maybe i just need to go outside when the sun is shining i'm not too good at that.

^love the electric blue on these jeans. If they weren't that heavy, I might be tempted.

no washes, but think the light on that day made the fadings appear more prominent then they are, but you see what there will come…

exactly what I would call it, the outcoming blue is very vibrant. Personal don't find them heavy at all… as comfortable as the 21oz....

[Max Power]

Hmm, i didn't like the fit on me, due to the stiffness they didn't drape as nicely (of course they will settle with time). But as I sweat pretty easily I think i would not be able to wear them except in winter.

[rocket]

I can understand that, since when you try them on, they might feel little "weird" at first, but they will soften… and I agree that this not really a summer denim....

[Max Power]

Yeah, and tbh they are also too "regular" for my personal taste. but these sure do fade beautifully and this alone makes them interesting. Maybe the extra-dipped 23 oz SE collab (forgot the name, the one which caused argument ;D) will fade similar?

Oh, here's the fit in W33 btw.

[STAN]

fits look prefect on you.

[rocket]

agree, really like the fit…

[thomasnunnally]

Yea Max I think it is a good fit, but since they are so heavy, it will take some time to start to look "normal."  This seems to be the case for the people who have had them for 2 months at least.

Max-  At the DC4 shop?  I thought I recognized the old black Union Special.

I got the 666s in 25 oz and had a similar first impression.  I think that the thickness and stiffness of the denim seem to accentuate certain folds that would not look so pronounced in the softer 21 oz denim.  I have been wearing mine for about a month (mostly on the weekends) and they are starting to settle down a little bit.

[Max Power]

^^ yes, at DC4.

^you may soak just the hem to get some bleeding out. There are also guys who put ducktape on the inside of the hem to prevent bleeding. i personally love and embrace indigo stains, but you might want to try these two tricks.

Yes but oiled leather, Red Wings 875 just to understand.

[injunjack]

I'd say, live with it like most of us do….or buy BLACK boots. 

[Seul]

It really is that simple indeed!..

I know, It was just to understand, I have many other shoes marked by jeans…

I don't like black boot, I prefer to live with it!
