            Nevertheless: absolutely love those… If I need any repairs on my 666-XHS, I'm having it done with the cloth of 25 oz denim you gave me once, G... The contrast won't be as stark as on those OG IHs, but still... Just something I like... And am kinda looking forward to  😃

                        It's not just you Bags. The flagship takes a while to fade too.

                                  Yeah they shrink a bit after every wash, and then they stretch again… But they stretch back slower because they're BASTARDS...

                                      As Cam has now has now archived these IH-106 for the HWDC2 BB Raw's here's how he's done with them in the last 18 months. Its amazing how he's grown too, check the fits from the beginning and end!
                                      The non-selvedge 21oz denim doesn't give particularly contrasty fades, plus Cam can make a pair of jeans unbearably dirty in no time at all, so the've been washed lots.

                                            Some macro-love of my 634S' a year in…I think I'd give Paula a run for her money on slowest fading :). Thankfully I'm in no rush, each day is a joy. (Colour is straight out of camera for bottom 2, no fiddling)
