He's more Utah-adjacent.
@Jorge:I'm in Gunbarrel Colorado; those photos are basically my backyard.

So, I found these on the camera, forgot I took them, they were dated 10.25.17 so 2.5 weeks in. Selfie shot in a mirror right before work.
These four are from tonight, 11.6.17. I missed the first official day of the contest, sorry, but I have pics from initial wear in the main thread from when I started them on 10.7.17. So I guess these are one month pics.
Same light, taken minutes apart, just how the camera read the setting, I'm sure you can mess with editing software, but I'm not that smart. Just showing the difference the shot can make in terms of how the jeans look.
You can see the dog paw print on my knee, I just did a soak yesterday, get to do one again tonight. Thanks dog.

LMAO!
@cander49 Yep, I'm on the FRange. I spend as much time in UT as possible though; greatest hidden gem in the whole Union. I try to get 4-8 days of backcountry skiing around SLC every winter, a couple trips to Indian Creek every Spring and Fall and usually spend some time climbing around St. George. Almost went for a design job at Kuhl a year ago. Don't regret passing it up but…
@fanya - Thanks! I've been designing and making clothing for a couple decades now & I rarely get a chance to make something for myself so this has already been a real treat. That said, 18.5 oz was at the limit of my normal equipment. Any more and I would have had to switch to walking foot machines which I don't prefer to sew on.
@BloodnThunder - Wow, you can already see where those Roy's are going, special.
@tfahey00 - Hell Yeah!
-
Thanks @Jorge Pantalones I'm hoping I can do my first pair of Roy's proud.

@fanya I can't get over how awesome those blue and white arcuates look. That deep blue is gonna fade crazy. Can't wait to see them over the course of the contest. Gotta love the paw prints!
Thankfully, my little dachshund doesn't leave monster ones like that! ya man, I'm excited for them, that inky blueness through the black is already starting. Big dogs are great at finding new and exciting ways to make me dirty.

I’ve neglected to post yet. Here are my IHxVS777S-21 on the 24th day of wear today.
Decided to do a tux with the IH-526J-DD. I’ve worn it a few days for shorter stretches. Wore it hiking twice over the normal technical outerwear I prefer for mountainous ventures.

Early days but I am starting to see fades

I'm already dreading 60-90 days from now when some of you post update pics that have more character than mine will at 2 years. Spirit crushers.

Cigar shell + quadruple indigo: contest jeans, tonal stitch indigo western, and, of course, double indigo duck type III. I probably need an indigo hat or socks or something.

Like it all. Especially the boots.

I feel you man. I'm seeing all these killer honeycombs starting to pop and all my denim I've worn never had such nice crisp lines. Mine are always bunched up, but hopefully it'll be different this time.

Pretty sure it is Day 10 in them.
They are super comfy now. One of the easiest break in’s I have had. I was expecting it to be brutal but far from it.

When your tailor messes up a hem but makes the situation right (and swaps the patches!); I️ guess I’ll finally start on my pair now! I️ messed up the NT patch on my own. Womp.
