      Your pair is looking good, Matt! I’ve been wearing mine a lot this summer. Gotta go for comfort, these days.

        I’m wearing mine right now.

        Initially I thought they were going to be fairly fast faders, but they’ve dug their heels in and are proving otherwise.

          I agree. I saw small changes pretty quickly but they seem like they’re in for the long haul.

                    I have about 8 months of wear on my pair and I’ve noticed a pretty rapid break down at the hemline. They dont hit the ground so I’m a little confused why it’s happening. I wonder if it’s just the nature of the denim?

                    I am thinking I should start a small cuff to keep them from unraveling? I’m not sure if a hemline could be darned or if my tailor would have to bring the hem up (which I dont particularly want).

                    Still love this pair, I just want to rock them as long as I can. They are starting to give up their indigo and the darker weft looks great.

                      I think it is probably because the cotton fibres in the RE are relatively short….

                        1 year old pair, although worn approximately 150 days. I found myself reaching for these jeans a lot during lockdown as they’re so comfortable. I think general inactivity has stifled the ageing of the fabric (except on the left thigh where I sit cross legged at my desk  😃 ), but I couldn’t be happier with this pair and how they’re developing, I’m looking forward to the next 150 days

                          They look lovely. The 888 is a brilliant everyday denim cut.

                              @neph93 it really is an amazing cut. Can’t quite believe that I needed to convince myself to hang on to this pair ~1 year ago - the high rise was so new to me that I thought I’d got it wrong. 1 year on and I’m looking forward to the next year in them.

                              @hoppy_IPA thanks man! There’s something really satisfying about denim that gives up it’s indigo slowly. There’s a magic day where you look down and see all this texture and depth that you hadn’t really noticed. That was me today, hence my sharing!

                                I sent my beloved TW-666N off to @popvulture which made me sad.  😞

                                But then I bought these brand new 888s from @dB and now I’m really happy.  😉

                                          So happy to have a pair of these.  These and my Pronto slubs will be getting the business this summer.
