      Question about crotch blow out. I have worn jeans all of my life and never had it. Then again, I have also learned later in life, the longer you wear jeans the better, they wear. My favorite denim has thus far been UHR. I have been wearing 1955UHRs for over a year, without any kind of blowout, then I got the IHXBO1XUHR about 11 months ago, and have worn the first pair most of the time. They have now a proper fade. Two days ago I noticed threads separating in a small area. I washed them, and now that hole is about the size of a screw head. I've also noticed a sort of crease in the area, should I get them repaired now, or let the tear get larger? I have had faded jeans tear, usually years old, and the tear spread rapidly. I appreciate any help. What causes this?

        Get them repaired now. Preventive maintenance is always best.  I highly recommend that you send them off to Indigo Proof.  Her work is impeccable.

                    I had very good experience with Mr. Handy denim repair. http://www.misterhandydenim.com/

                    He fixed two holes on the knees of my WH 800 and the darning was great - they still hold up after 6 months of further wear.
