@Karol Damn nice job and the roping is stellar!!

[drewfonse]

@goosehd

Yeah the roping is great on his pair. I would say that of all of my IH pairs, the 21s is the one that started roping almost immediately. Not sure why.

Oh, and every time I wash them they get really tight and my heart sinks. Not sure why I can’t remember that they will relax after 2-3 wears haha. Anyway, awesome jeans, back up pair wrapped up in my closet, and I’ll probably jump in the 1955 version whenever that comes back.

@Mickey-GT

Perfect. The GOAT denim right there.

Some closeups…

And after all the ungodly abuse I expose them to they still go strong and no signs of blowup.

@Karol looking good bud! That patch looks ready to give up tho lol. Can I ask your wash/wear count? if you keep track?

My pair is still in it's fade infancy. Just starting to see a bit of shade peeking in a couple spots though. These are my favorite right now, I'm actually kinda babying these.

[Karol]

@WhiskeySandwich Yea, the patch has not taken all of the super hot washes very well. But this is exactly what I expected. At first i was using plenty of obenaufs to keep it going, but it was unwinnable war.
Regarding the washes, I don't have exact count but its almost 2 years now and I want to say that maybe every 2 months?
This is also the only IH pair that I'm really giving the business. They are 36 instead my usual 34 and I really wanted to shrink them as much as possible. Even after that they are a bit to big, so they ended up replacing my sweatpants. I have no mercy for them, but I baby all of my other IH stuff, really trying to delay the aging and prolong the wear time.

Obligatory resting in sun GOAT pic right now

@maxrez Thanks, I came here to ask the same question!

Not giving these enough love with my SLBod on the go right now. But still my all time favorite in terms of comfort. 5 cold washes over the past couple years. I have some 25oz in the 888 coming, which I am super excited for.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Fucking around in the studio and figured do a fit pic. 34 wears. Going for a handwash later.

@WhiskeySandwich Those honey combs

[dinobarnesberlin]

some pretty sweet stacks coming along as well

[WhiskeySandwich]

Thanks dudes. These have def turned into my favorite pair. For me, the fit is perfect, and the denim is the best ever. I’m pretty psyched on the baby fades as well, these are gonna be glorious in think.
