@denim-dawg Look great bud … Don’t think there’s any other methods of washing you haven’t done LOL
-
@Jcaz6996 cheers pal! You’ve done one wash, and looking at your fades I see I have a lot to learn

@Jcaz6996 said in Indigo invitational Y4:
@CosmoSix5 Here you go a little insight to what actually goes on…. And yes it one years worth of wear !!!
You should be happy I had the guts to ask the question. Tons just assumed one way or another and moved on. And after your job description was thrown into the mix it was clearly legitimate. Nothing to be upset about.
-
@denim-dawg each to there own mate there’s no right or wrong you do you , and by the looks of things it’s worked out great
-
@denim-dawg I think I’ll skip the hurricane and Arctic soaks! Great job this year. I’m considering overalls for next time around.
-
@denim-dawg excellent work! These look so cool.
-
@Brian I’m in the exact same boat, I’m gonna get repairs and sign up for repair anyways and just make the decision later
-
@Mister_Brue haha I would recommend trying them - they’re invigorating, but to each their own and this is all just good clean fun thanks for nice words
@Davids_denim much appreciated bro!

UNDERWEAR IS OFF after not being able to choose either the IH-805 or the IHS-555-21 … I ended up wearing BOTH. Dude… haha… it felt amazing in the winter, and I felt as padded and indestructible as anything. I was also real curious as to how the jeans will fade underneath. For the first two months I had rehearsal for a musical, so every day we had yoga and dance, everyone else in tights and sweats and me in double-denim. Hahah… what a journey. There is NO Stretch in them haha…
When July came I couldn’t feel my left leg, and my right nut started to throb… so I was afraid I had got something bad… I thought what if I just don’t wear both jeans for a couple of days. And I felt normal again haha… so I’ve alternated a bit, but have tried to wear them every day together.
In conclusion if I’m honest I think denim need direct sunlight and water to fade. They look great! Put to see how little they’ve aged indigo compared to its outer layer… is also a testament to the master craftsmanship of IH️ and @Haraki-san. These jeans will last for years on end of daily use. I’ve thrown myself down stairs, slid down most slopes in winter, down roads, taken the stairs instead of the lift since January 10th:
316 days
1 sauna sweat soak
2 machine wash (40 degrees)
1 Atlantic Ocean swim soak
3 bath soaks
Snowsurf and mad amounts of snow and ice, and drying in the sun
Rockabilly fade-off dance with Johnny Daigo in OsakaAll with the protective IH-805 worm overall.
Thank you for sharing this journey.
Love
Denim Dawg

@Fades-for-future ah man thank you, I feel they are very gentle compared to other 300 days of wear. But love them for their individuality and they feel like sweatpants ️️️ Have a lovely Sunday mate!
