@kiya does the 3sixteen double black denim fade?

Yes, it fades. You can do a Google image search for "st-220 3sixteen" to see some photos.

Would you say it fades quickly or slowly? The images I’ve seen so far don’t have heavy fading. I’m looking for a pair that either won’t fade or fade slowly at least, as I can get away with wearing dark black jeans at work. I’m desperate for a new pair and I don’t think a restock of the Iron Hearts in the 666 cut is coming for months. Hoping these new 3sixteen NT-220’s at least fade slowly enough to tide me over.

I have a pair of SL-220X that I treat as dressy black jeans and they haven’t really faded very much at all over the past year. It’s mainly night and weekend type wear though. If I recall correctly it’s Kuroki Mills 13 oz. I also have a pair of Red Clouds Collective jeans in the same black denim that I wore hard for 1.5 years and they definitely faded slower than indigo.
I’d say if you just wear them around the office you should be good for a while as long as you don’t keep a phone or any other boxy items in the front pockets.

Awesome, thanks!

They definitely fade slowly, that 220x denim eventually will show wear but it takes a while especially compared to a fast fading black denim like Iron Heart's SBG denim.

Thanks Kiya! Sounds like these will work until I can get my hands on a pair of Superblack 666’s.

The 3sixteen Overdyed 40ODB "Caustic Wave" Modified Type III Jacket
One of the best selling denim jackets of the past few years has been 3sixteen’s modified Type III. We’re happy to announce that it’s now being made in an overdyed version using the Caustic Wave 40BSP denim. We've never felt an overdyed denim like this, something about the way the Caustic Wave denim reacts to being overdyed is magic, you truly have to try this on to understand.
The sizing on this new production run is perfect and can be purchased both in-store and online now.

3sixteen 40BSP Caustic Wave Denim Jeans & Jacket
This week we have a new run of 3sixteen's Caustic Wave denim jackets and jeans.
The 40BSP jean is made of a 16.5oz unsanforized (but rinsed) denim made into a straight tapered jean fit. This fit has a true medium rise, a top block that is comfortable, and a leg which has a strong taper for a small leg opening at the hem.
One of the best selling denim jackets of the past few years has been 3sixteen’s modified Type III. We’re happy to announce that it’s also made in a traditional indigo warp / natural weft denim using the 16.5oz Caustic Wave 40BSP denim which starts out unsanforized but has been rinsed to make sizing easier. This jacket has cord lined hand pockets and cuffs, a slightly extended length so you can wear with untucked shirts easily, and slightly longer sleeves than 3sixteen's normal Type III jackets.
The "Caustic Wave" denim was developed with the intention of creating a fabric which would yield electric blue high friction points and a high contrast fade with regular wear. A strong variation within the weave of the fabric combined with strongly twisted yarns of uneven shapes and lengths creates an abrasive denim with a crisp and dry hand feel.
We also have a fresh run of their black zip hoodies.
All three of these items are available now at all stores and online.
