The roping is really amazing. Here's a pic of both the roping and the damage on the right hem…

Well now these make me want to dig mine out of their spring/summer hibernation.  Damn it.

@Seul:

Almost dry. Don't like how they look but nothing some more wear won't fix. Pics to come.

I don't see any roping at all?

@dave:

I washed mine too.. They're nearly white in places.  They got beat to crap in the washing machine since I didn't turn them inside out first. Oh well, it was going to happen sooner or later.  I tried to get these pics as close to no bullshit as possible (at least on my monitor).  The contrast is insane.

Wow!!!! They are so beautiful

@Matt:

I broke down and washed mine, knew  I wasn't going to wear them again this spring since the OD is going so well.  Cold cycle in washer w/ a cap full of Dr Bronners… I made the mistake of washing them inside out and honestly thought I wasn't going to get them pulled through again...

In case you're wondering, here's what happens when you wash and hang dry...

What do you mean pulled thorough, why was it a mistake to wash inside out?

[Matt]

Not necessarily a mistake.  They were just a super bitch to get inside back in again.  As tough as they are dry, they are twice as tough wet.

@Seul:

.. Some say these fade fast but I never agreed… Slow as hell... Def will take another 6 months to see some significant fades 

Great pics Seul. I've said this before in other threads, but I really love jeans at this point of wear, i.e. after several months and first wash. There's still an element of mystery to them at this stage. When they fade further they sure can look beautiful, but by that time they've given up all their secrets.

[Licorice Noose]

Thanks Gents. The summer is gonna tear them up.

[Finn666]

LN your pair will turn into some holy grail pair of IH denim in a few more months…already looking perfect to me!

Nah I hate it how stuff looks when it comes outta the machine… I wore them yesterday, and now they look really, REALLY good... I should've taken pics after a couple days of wear...
