7 months today

How can I repair the denim over the hidden rivets on my back pockets?

I really like the way the broken denim looks, but I want these to last a long time.

I had originally not been a fan of how these faded but damn has there been some cognitive dissonance recently….

Kris, your photos are always so damn nice.  Keep up the great work, man.

Ben, photos don't really do the denim justice, either.  I think it speaks volumes that most of the people who have access to every IH denim, prefer the 25oz, above all.

I had the privilege to hold some well-worn pairs of the raws and 25oz, lately; and when compared to my 21ods and SE 23oz, they are all incredibly different.  My next pair of jeans (hopefully soon; whenever the Spring shirt releases slow down) will be the 634-XHS – even as summer in SoCal approaches.  I think that says a bit about what my impressions were of the denim.

KrisB- good work man. Probably have one of the best fits too

@KrisB:

With great difficulty.  I have never bothered repairing that…

[Max Power]

Excellent pair! This denim will be a tough opponent in the HDC!

[KrisB]

Thanks for the all feed back guys!
@Max Power- Sadly, I do not think i will be participating in the next round of HWDC
I really want to, but these jeans are already past 4 months wear which is the exception.
ive been trying to come up with cash by selling candy at school haha. 
Unless i can register late and make up for all the photos/ challenges, i'd be totally down for that.

What up KrisB!

If you ask me, I'd keep the hidden rivets not hidden. It won't lessen your denims life in that area  just because they're exposed, at least from my experience
But yeah, nice seeing you the other day. Hopefully we can do a more formal meet up. With food involved..

[KrisB]

Hell yeah!
But as far as hidden rivets go, I'm considering having one hidden and one not so hidden. All this depends on whether I can repair them.

[Finn666]

i'd leave as is mate…things like that come with wear and also tell a story (like the rest of the jeans)! besides that it looks dope as hell

[Giles]

Haraki says it is impossible to fix them…..

[KrisB]

Looks like I'm leaving them alone

[KrisB]

On the day of my 7 month mark.
unfortunately the sun made the fade difficult to see

[davito]

great look and you wear those 25ers perfect. nice evo.

hmm I have an almost fresh 25er 634VMC pair….I need to wear those guys...

[grandmasterben]

Hahahha. Sweet pose. Great fit too!

[KrisB]
