IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
They aren't yet holes but they are small lil points that are frayed with the white thread showing. I think theres 3 from what iv seen. I really dont want to wet them just yet. If anything i'll give em a soak and retire them till the end of summer and then get in some hard wear for the months leading up to the SExIH party in OCT. My 301s will be here today so they should keep me occupied
-
Ok ill take some now while im taking pics of the 301s as well

Yea he seriously has hands down the best pair i have seen with Matt a close second..I think thats his name. I have seriously been abusing these doing everything in them. I will chill out on them now that my 301s are here which feel like they are 21 oz denim wearing a Halloween custom of a 12 oz denim

Alright guys so here's the deal: temperature's going up… I hear you shouting "AGAIN WITH THE BLOODY TEMPERATURE!.." but hey: 24 C°/ 75F is too hot for these...
I've worn them at least 4 times/ week for exactly 6 months (Nov 04 til May 20th with two weeks of no wear), so I'm good. Now 6 months of PBJ...
So: they're being gently machinewashed as we speak as they did encounter some abuse the last month... Better pics tomorrow, but for now... Here's one of the original hems vs. their colour right now, and some random snaps...

Lovely, they've changed so much in a relatively short space of time. I look forward to seeing them after another 6 months of wear.
Alternatively, you could move to England :). 13 degrees here at the moment.
Reminds me to take some more pics of mine. Before 8 months turns into 9. Maybe Tuesday.

What: and pay 5 quid for a decent beer?.. No fanx!..

since i´ve never saw such kinda rips after only just one month of wear i´d suggest you to stop using that sandpaper too often mate!
I live and I learn I guess..I sprayed starch on the creases and the denim got super dry about 2 weeks ago. I am mad I did that because I know those tiny holes that are deep inside the smaller creases will become a problem later

Yes, that's a good point…

You sprayed starch on jeans that stand up by themselves?
Yes I know crazy..I wasnt liking how the creases were looking so big. The jeans looked like they belonged on a clown around the knees and ankles. I thought by wetting them it would allow the creases to fall and settle more precise which it did. So at first i said wow they look better. I quickly noticed how dry and brittle the denim became. They also started fading really quick at those points again making me say this is good shit. Now that I know it was premature excitement and eventually it probably knocked of some life…Needless to say I will never starch another thing I own

Yo DD,
The only pair of jeans that that ever happened to me with were my KMWs. It Certainly took a lot longer than a month. I do have a bit of fraying on one of my whiskers though. The Stiffness of the 25oz denim probably adds to it though. I think theres a fine line between "Not being afraid to get my jeans dirty" and "doing everything possible to get dirty jeans and sick fadez." It doesn't matter how the jeans look in the end as long as they tell a story.

Sorry for the quick shit photos.
