IH-633S - Self Edge x Iron Heart 21oz Selvedge Straight Tapered

[neph93]

From what you wrote I’d say it was the washing machine. I’ve never had problems with the 21oz denim. Not even at high temps and spin. The only time I’ve had marbling is with the 25oz XHS, but that was because I washed it too hard (too much spin) and didn’t soak the jeans first. The result was creases, abrasion lined and marbling. I just wore the crap out of them and they look good now. But now I also soak all my denim before washing just in case. I use a European front loader and the general understanding is that they are more gentle.

But even with these it can happen. Just continue to rock em @babtron the lines and stuff will blend in over the time

For sure. They are not «ruined» at all and will keep getting better.

Thanks for the replies guys! I was just worried they’re ruined lol.

I’m not that pissed off anymore. The way I see it, it kinda adds to the story and history of the jeans in a way. I dunno, it sounds good lol

that’s the spirit … enjoy em

No problem  I'm looking at the pics again on my desktop machine (I was on my telephone earlier) and they really do look fine. Defo not ruined in any way.

@babtron In fact I prefer marbling over that overly perfect look of Jeans that have never been properly washed. So I think it adds to your Jeans, not vice versa.

Here’s a better look at the right leg. It’s weird how the right leg is the only part that has this type of marbling lol.

[babtron]

Lol thanks guys. Completely unintentional.

@Fadez hopefully my pair will be up to par with yours. Loving the fades on yours.

[Fadez]

Thanks man! Worn hard for a year and the on and off for another.  Machine washed hot 5 or 6 times. You’ll get there. Enjoy your journey

Just sent my pair to IndigoProof for crotch and seat reinforcement. I miss them already!

@Anesthetist  What’s the turnaround these days? I need to send my Busters in for the same.

She just got them and sent me an invoice so we’ll see. It took a long time for her logbook to open up. She stays really busy.

Since there's no OD thread, I'll post my pics here! I found these on eBay secondhand for a steal and I had to pick them up
I've been wearing these for about 5 months now. I'm currently washing them but I wanted to get some before pictures!

[Fadez]

Some nice light on these guys

Those look amazing - please post up post wash pics! 18oz OD is some of the best fabric ever.
