Indigo invitational Y4

[Mister_Brue]

Kojima Genes 19oz Slab Jeans. These things need a break. Not long to go.

[olblue]

@Mister_Brue man these are looking incredible, well done my friend

[Mister_Brue]

@olblue Incredibly battered. I’m struggling to wear these in polite society now. Not sure whether to go all out repairing them in January or not.

Do you have plans once IIY4 has ended?

@Mister_Brue I feel you…it’s been a minute since I’ve gone out in something half way clean after this it’s time to get back into the project pairs (mister freedom lot 64’s MD and a pair of black warp/weft freenote cloths.) time to get back into the dark denims. How bout yourself?

@Mister_Brue

What you been doing in them muffling on the floor lol

[Mister_Brue]

I have no idea what muffling is. It sounds like something I might have done in my twenties.

@olblue Not sure myself yet. I may line up an interim work project, though I’m not short of older pairs either.

@denim-dawg Incredible!!! Those bibs are beautiful and the “underpants” are something else! Very cool

One of the seams on mine has started to break from the back top block down, for what they cost I may just bin them after the comp finishes
I could get the repaired but I think it would probably be more than the original cost

[Mister_Brue]

@Brian Which seam? The back centre seam?

@iamjustdanny Doesn’t sound like you’re having the best time… Do you have a project for the off season?

[iamjustdanny]

@Mister_Brue I wouldn't say that I'm not having fun. I'm down to do this again.

I'm just looking forward to wearing other pairs of denim that's gathering dust right now. Other pairs that could use extra love/use.

I don't have an extra project really. But I have started a small pile of denim ready to be worn again.

[Brian]

@Mister_Brue yep, only on one side though and not all the way through,
will try to get some pics up later

[JunkPants]

@Jcaz6996 Has kept rather quiet this Indigo Invitational. I fully expect him to come in and destroy everyone in a few weeks

[JunkPants]

@iamjustdanny What have you heard a about the start date for Y5?

Personally I'm already eager to go again
In (some version of) XHS this time.

And great looking pair!

There have been some talk thrown around in the Indigo Invitational FB group. It's looking like it'll be summer again, but a September start is a strong possibility.

Despite my desire to wear different denim, I can't wait for Y5 .

[JunkPants]

@iamjustdanny Thank you for posting that, good to know!

Lord knows I have enough jeans to keep me busy until then.
Probably have a lifetime supply on hand tbh

[iamjustdanny]

@JunkPants Same here!!!

I know I sounded like I was having a miserable time with the Invitational, but mostly the opposite.

It's just I have a stack of other denim waiting to be worn out and about again. As the Invitational comes to an end, I'm getting anxious about getting to wear my other denims.

The long period until the start of Y5 is very welcome in terms of giving my other denim some wear

[Mister_Brue]

@iamjustdanny Same here, although I’m now wearing other pairs outside of work, so the transition has already started.

[iamjustdanny]

@Mister_Brue niiicceeee!!!!
