I’m sure that might be an unpopular opinion right now and would fit into the dedicated thread but:
Don’t most people around here look down at pre-distressed stuff and “preach” the natural evolution of your gear, yet the artificial aging (and rusting) is considered cool? Isn’t that hypocrite in a way?My point is only valid if those buttons are supposed to be used for new jeans though.
And yeah, with natural wear of jeans you wouldn’t probably achieve such an aging of your buttons.Edit: Don't wanna be the defeatist just bringing up some discussion

@beautiful_FrEaK, good point.
-
It's a differentiator, some people will love it and others will not. Personally I think it's creative and adds an element of something special.
-
I wouldn't label it as pre distressing either, to me the process of pre distressing jeans is done without thought other than to make them appear worn, this is done as a concept to achieve something which has not been done before. Calling it pre distressing is like comparing silver selvedge to a cocktail dress, as in it fails to recognise the meaning of the feature.

This was my thought process. I love the patina that my duck vest hardware has got (see my icon to the left). I am lucky to live next to the sea and also spend time fishing in the tropics. So the patina I achieved may simply not possible for some of you, so I thought I'd let you have access to it if you wanted it. Of course, like everything we do, if you don't like it, no one is forcing you to buy it.
