            Question 1:
            Are you a 1 - 2 pairs max person or have you got a load of pairs of jeans in rotation?

            Question 2: If you have loads,
            Does it not bother you that you can’t give all those pairs any decent wear and must have a wardrobe full of jeans that basically look the same.

                Currently have 4 pairs in rotation. 777XHS,Pronto/IH II-25OZ,Pronto/IH 22OZ Indigo/Beige,and my VS/IH 777-SBG. They all have their own distinctive characteristics,and they’ll each probably get about 40 days wear and a couple of washes between now and May. As the weather gets warmer I’ll put the 25OZ denim away,and pick up some of my 21OZ. Doesn’t bother me.

                  Q1 - 6ish pairs in rotation.
                  Q2 - Yes because it takes me much longer to have my jeans look as worn in as I'd like.  However, even new my rotation doesn't really look the same (IH-666XHS, IH-777s14-OD, Strike Gold x Self Edge, Companion Denim 14 oz Japanese Red Line denim, Kapital Century Denim 123s, Roy Peanuts Cone Mills denim).

                          I always buy more than 1 pair, because if I like them and wear them to work, with some chemicals I deal with, I can easily destroy a pair within minutes. Not that I try to, but shit happens.

                            Funny thing, the second pairs of Iron Hearts I bought were from Self Edge S.F. 634S-SEXIH13, which I forgot about, but I'm wearing them today. I first got this pair in 2014, dropped a slab of PVC glue on them, and then found IH UK. rest is history, but I still like them. I also have another pair or 2 of them.

                              I also rotate quite a few pairs, depends on the weather where I am traveling to, and my mood.

                                A1: Currently 7 pairs. Soon to be 8 ( 633S-OD in the works, from SE )

                                A2: It doesn't bother me, at all. My current line-up includes:
                                PBJ 1133 deep indigo work pant
                                PBJ XX-014 purple
                                PBJ XX-017 cobalt
                                PBJ AI-003 Aizome ( slubby beyond belief)
                                IH 666-19L LHT
                                IH Raw Busters
                                ONI 546 Nat Indigo Kabuki Vedge

                                The appearance of each is so different from the others, "a wardrobe of jeans that basically look the same" is not an issue. The Lefty's have been with me the longest, and have by far the most evo. I was never in any hurry to get them there, though. If it takes 10 years to get all of them nicely faded, so be it. I'm just going to enjoy the ride…

                                Edit: I should add, I also have 4 pairs ( IH 817, 666 UHR, 2 Gustin), that I wear strictly to work, as well. My job has a tendency to destroy denim, in any price range. As the others age, they will replace these.

                                Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

                                  I have loads, but I only ever keep one pair in rotation (if it's possible to rotate 1)…..

                                    I've got 6-7 pairs, though I plan to dump a couple soon.  And yes, it does bother me that I have jeans I never wear.  That's why I talked myself out of buying a pair of natural indigo Sd'A jeans this weekend, even though Self Edge is selling them for more than 50% off original price right now.

                                      I have a strange rotation policy, and it’s always the same. Basically, I always have to have three pairs of jeans…

                                      1. Gets worn 99% Of the time.

                                      2. My previous favourite (whatever that may be) gets worn maybe 1 day a month when I need a change, or wash day etc...

                                      3. My “nice” jeans, for going out for a nice dinner, meeting aristocracy or appearing in court.

                                      4. 888-NT

                                      5. 21oz unsanforised Pronto collab.

                                      6. 777-14OD

                                          Good to hear people’s answers.

                                          Myself , i pretty much stick to 2 pairs. One for work which get trashed and another for weekend / going out. I do bring a heavily faded pair out of lighter weight denim sometimes in the summer.

                                          I have this weird thing where  basically once I start wearing a pair and they start to have any wear on them. I want them to fade as fast as possible.

                                            So I'll see that pair in April right?..  😛

                                            I currently have two pairs: one black, one indigo. Both acquired in November, wasn't the plan to go back to jeans, really… Fine with just rotating workpants...
