Better than being a micro cock

Too bad "micro" accurately describes how much charm you possess.

[Megatron1505]

Yeh, insult my charm…..thats how to offend me

The Seul Patch makes an entrance.  Boom

[sirxlaughs]

Great weather during Memorial Day gave me a good opportunity to snap some update shots.

That's all the color my White's have been "absorbing."

Nice progress Seul and sirxlaughs, got those blues coming out now.

A couple xpost pics, more in the HWDC thread

Yah for the electric blues.

~7 week update after first soak

[Finn666]

damn mate, now these are looking brilliant for that short amount of time!
how´s the fit after the soak? has it changed a bit?…

[fanya]

They tightened back up after the soak to where they were when I originally started wearing them, which is nice because I could tell they were loosing up some because they were starting to sit lower and lower as I haven't been wearing a belt with these.

[fanya]

Also the evo came out a lot more after the soak

I'll probably do a soak every 4-6 weeks to keep the cotton strong and help the evo along, I have seen some examples where there was just too much contrast up top with lower leg areas that were still basically so dark they have that black ink look too them still, I'm trying to avoid that.  I think for my life a 4-6 week soak regiment is probably about perfect to maintain what I'm looking for in the end.

thanks a lot for the feedback mate…mine are getting wider and wider as well (hopefully that´s more of me slimming down instead of the denim stretching like hell!) ^^

this just sounds about perfect for me then:

^^ if you want to achieve a lighter overall colour (not too crazy contrast, that is easily doable in this 25 oz denim) you should opt for frequent washes instead of soaks. Just soaking won't get much indigo out, especially not in the places that aren't prone to fade like the lower legs.

^This.

I wear mine every day to work, I walk around 7 miles a day in them and I work with plenty of chemicals. Mine will be washed (not soaked) monthly to avoid being destroyed.

I may have retired my contest MBBs. About a week ago I switched back to my SExIH13s due too the long rise of these continuing to drive bonkers. I had begun wearing my MBB at the same place on my hips as I do my mid rise jeans and have developed whiskers under the back pockets of my jeans and it looks weird to me. That top block is just enough to get under my skin and has been my nemesis since recieving these

[zwer]

I seem to get those whiskers under the back pockets regardless of the rise. Maybe it's the denim?

[tatmantall]

Dunno my 666 xhs didn't do it…
