IH-822 double knee jeans in some morning sun. I think about five months wear or so now.

Lots of iron heart in the top ten. Congrats to all the winners.

Nope, given the arcs, 301 of some sort….

Lots of evo in 2 years (though the sun exaggerates…)

Some folks don't like sunny fade photos but your photos have rekindled my attention to that sort of lighting. It looks more like a highlight than an exaggeration IMO.

Thanks @sabergirl! Just to be sure: I haven't worn this combo for two years straight–but I do wear these pieces a lot, esp. in the fall/winter.

I know! It may feel a bit like cheating somehow, but the it does add some drama. I always loved what @alexswords did with the late afternoon sunlight in his photography, but unfortunately I've not seen him around here for some time now…

I agree and now I'm motivated to take some later!

P.s. I don't think it's cheating…after all the sun does not change the fades, rather it showcases them. Cheating would be sandpaper!

@Lowlander Good one and great fades on the jacket. Looking at your snap, I still have a long long way to go with my 666 XHS that I have been wearing non stop for the last 2 months and it shows no sign of surrender.

I don't know if this has any true merit, but from my experience with XHS it seems to take forever until it starts to snowball.

Cheers, @the246guy! I think my jeans have about 250 days of wear on them. But I think the XHSib fades quicker and to higher contrast than the regular XHS.

Oops you beat me to it
