Hi guys!
Can you advise me on how to avoid such artifacts, when jeans "break" at the crease.? I understand they occur due to excessive stiffness, is there a way to prevent such tearing? Regular washing, fabric softener, or something like that?

[Kasi]

Did you soak them before wearing them.
Or did you leave them to long not wash them

[JeansCat]

These is not mine, but I can see this issue mostly on 25 oz

So maybe there is some recomendations how to avoid it. I am not agains soak new jeans och washing them.

@Kasi he already addressed the issue by giving them a soak before starting to wear them. The only time I see this on IH 25oz is when people cuff them and overtime the fabric weakens at the cuff folding and starts tearing. I have never seen it on honeycomb.

I personally like the look of a well worn pair of jeans and hope that some of mine will look similar as the days and years pass. To me, it tells the stories of a life well lived and represent the scars accumulated over time.

It happens to me on almost all my denim, my 21oz had much longer sections of this but when I sent them in for repair, much to my surprise they were patched up which I didn't even realize was a viable repair, but I agree with @goosehd they are just another marking of a pair of jeans well worn!!

After 4 months of wearing. I love this jeans, after 2 weeks it became much more comfortable. But I have to work to get more fades until the IH meeting in Bremen!!

[JeansCat]

Sorry for a silly question, but what model of jeans it this?

[Lowlander]

I'm pretty sure it's a 777. The denim I would bet is the 21 oz. Or possibly the 18 oz vintage. But others here will know better.
