Unconditionally…plus I can't not hug them and say hello in the morning before work! I keep a link roller by the front door.

…a few more around the pant legs but the pictures show the most obvious marbling.

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.
-
…@Oaktavia yeah not a real big deal, kinda bummed out at first but they'll blend in through the years/wears I'm sure.
...@LewisStonehouse looks like the 888 cut fits you to a 'T'! Perfect!
...whats the black/blue thingy on your key ring? Enquiring minds need to know!

[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:

…@neph93 @Paul9221 these baby's weren't a cheap date that's why initially I was like 'I just f*%$#@d my pants up'! But your'e right I'm cool with it now.
That being said I won't be as reckless with future wash routines. ::)…@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. -
Think these are just shy of about 100 wears. Ashy goodness coming through quite quickly now
-
These have just had their first run through the washer. Despite taking all of the usual precautions I’ve end up with a good amount of marbelling, but I’m not too worried

Nor should you be. Glorious pair.

I was warned about the marbling with my pair when asking other folks on here about how these turn out from machine washing…I understand how some may think this is undesirable but I like it! It makes me want to machine wash my 777s...the marbling complements the already established fades really well in my opinion. Though throwing them in a machine too soon, pre fade marks, would be much less desirable. My $.02.

And yep I’m all for machine washing, I got them caked in mud from a walk so they needed it

Happy to see you get the matrix fades you get with normal XHS too
-
matrix fades
This should be the way we reference XHS fades forever more. Inscribe it in the Sect’s book of law.
