the indigo looks amazing there.  So blue!  Two guys named after amps on this forum…

They're a touch darker in real life, but not much. I was dealing with some tricky lighting. Annoyingly, I've had to wash these four times already even though they've had less than 70 wears, because I keep getting them dirty and/or puking on them.

These are tough to fade

[xtcclassic]

Damn right they are. Must be the ridiculous amount of indigo. But eventually they will be amazing. It might take me a few more years to get there, but it will be worth it in the end I think.

Somehow I blew out the front of my favorite jeans. Do you guys think this will be a tough thing to fix? Or can a regular tailor get a needle through this fabric?

[Finn666]

actually this is an easy diy thing imo…go and grad a needle and some poly thread and start sewing.
shouldn't take longer than 5min.

That contrast is unreal!

Keep working on those- they are looking incredible so far!  That 23 oz fades really uniquely- seems like it goes from deep indigo straight to white!  Really cool.  I so wish I hadn't missed out on the 23 oz 634S collab.

There's more electric blue in them than that picture shows, for some reason it takes sunlight to bring it out. I wish I could wear jeans more often, they look good now but I can tell they will be amazing after another full year of wear. At this rate, that should only take me four more years to accomplish.

Wow. I really like the way the color evolves when these break in. I should've been paying more attention when I stopped by SENY this weekend. I saw these, but didn't look too closely.

@Arabit:

If I break down and buy a pair, the blame will fall squarely on these pictures.

[xtcclassic]

Do it.

[PSB]

Great, thanks. xtc. I needed that last little nudge.

Oh, by the way, if you find your tires sliced, it's probably my wife-to-be telling you to mind your own business regarding any future IH purchases.

So, I bit the bullet and ordered the last size 29 from Self Edge the other day. I was really excited when I checked tracking and found that they were delivered today, two days ahead of the original expected delivery date.

Naturally, I get home from work and open the box to try these babies on ASAP. Imagine my disappointment when I find this:

I've emailed Self Edge, but this was the last 29 in the online store and I was really hyped about this particular pair. Hopefully, we can come up with an acceptable resolution.

I'll keep the post updated.

Kiya responded almost instantly and is taking care of this in the utmost professional manner, which is not surprising to anyone I'm sure.

I'll get some fit pics up when I get these back. I have to say that I'm pretty stoked to have landed a pair of these, even with the minor setback. The denim is sweet.

That's a good find and the outcome I would expect from SE.
