      …@LewisStonehouse super heavy duty black jeans! As I said earlier I got some marbling from my wash method so I have relegated these as strictly my work pants, which takes the heat off all my other pants, which is a good thing. ???

      ...I find that there's a lot of room for movement in the 888 cut! Tough stuff that XHS. 😉

        @vaquero357 any chance you could snap a few closeups of the marbling you referred to? I'm curious how it looks with this heavy black denim.

        @LewisStonehouse heck yeah dude

                            Thanks for sharing dude. It may sound blasph-demin-emous, but I kind of like the way it looks…but I'll most likely steer away from the machine with my pair...for now.

                                [mention]vaquero357 [/mention] Bah, I wouldn't worry about those!  It took me a long time but I've stopped fussing over my denim.  Some of the best faders on this site beat their denim to hell and back.

                                That said, when I have had those kinds of lines on my stuff, sometimes brushing them out with a boot brush (relatively clean one) fades them away.

                                    Okay, that was not true, I still totally fuss about my denim, but I'm trying to stop 😃

                                    That said, I think that those marks on your BB look cool, [mention]vaquero357 [/mention] , so don't worry about it.  They look like fades that'd come from working in them.

                                      @vaquero357 thanks man, I tend to bounce between the 888 and the 634, really enjoying the fit on this pair 🙂 unfortunately the little plastic thing on my keys isn’t very exciting - a fob to get into my office building

                                        I put my first pair of XHS through a hasty machine wash after only a few weeks to wear, after a bout of projectile vomiting from my then 2 year old (thanks Rota Virus).

                                        They had marbling, white crease lines down the length and everything. I made them work jeans for about two months, did a load of wall building and dicking around in mud, and now they are my best ever pair:

                                          …@cool_breeze_ the boots are Ariat Heritage Ropers. Inexpensive boot. They were actually my son's and they were a little tight on him so I offered him $10.00 a boot and he bit! 😉 I bought a black pair also.
