Indigo Invitational Y3

[RoxRocks86]

Thanks for the tip @Oaktavia Will give rubbing alcohol a try. It was latex paint drips so was able to peel/scratch most of it off, but there’s still some embedded.

@Jcaz6996 do you wear a waterproof top as well? You always manage to keep your denim tux looking clean for what you do!

[indigogera]

The home stretch to a one year wear! Might have missed a handful days due to vacation in really hot weather or pool days.

@indigogera love love love these!!! honestly has me considering a pair for Y4

[akikola]

@GardenState Did you opt for the 019 relaxed taper fit? It's honesty the only pbj cut I can get my around my thighs.

[Jcaz6996]

[Fades for future]

@Daniel-San hell yeah, sounds like a plan

[Jcaz6996]

Going to stick with my 555s-SBG and see how they develop with a few more months of wear.

[Fades for future]

@Jcaz6996 sounds great, got a 555s-21 and a 555s-142bb waiting after the invitational...

@Jcaz6996
good idea James

[indigogera]

Here’s my year 3 pair after a fresh wash this morning. I’m contemplating wearing a pair of 555-03 I have on ice after the comp. Or maybe save and wear it for year 4. I wore a 21 oz 777 for year 2 and some of those hot days were rough. We’ll see. Worst case, i got a pair of 14 oz Schaefer’s Garment Hotel jeans that will finally get some wear.

[Jcaz6996]

Look great mate after a wash surprised how much the indigo pops .
Going to leave mine until the end of the month before giving them the second wash they definitely smell dusty but only wearing them for work so not bothered..

[indigogera]

Last two pairs I’ve been torn with when and how much to wash. First washed has been around the 6 month mark and then about every 2-3 weeks in hot water. I always want to wait longer but I love when the color starts to pop after washes. And also the cleanliness thing. Here’s a side by side of new and around 8 washes.

[Fades for future]

@indigogera great contrast, looks pretty cool.... My pair got one soak and one maschine wash but the second wash is just around the corner...

[indigogera]

@Fades-for-future nice! I’ll wash at least one more time. Maybe two by the finish line. Last wash will be right before the last submission pic. I feel like you can see the details better when the denim is flat after a wash versus when it’s lived in and creased up. Less shadow.

[Fades for future]

@indigogera totally agreed, flat pics are way better to see the details in my opinion... Couldn't do the full 365 days due to a really crazy heat wave but all in all i'm happy with the result so far.... Will also throw it again in the washing machine before i do the final Pics

Not a pair of Iron Hearts but wanted to share my fades from this competition. These are 18oz collect mills slub denim from Left Field in the greaser fit.

[T4920]

@pmadison95 intriguing to see such a difference in the pattern/prominence of these honeycombs! What do you typical do whilst wearing these?
