    I entered Y2 with 555xhsib first pair of denim I’ve ever faded
    Wore them 365/365 even kept a note of the amount of hours worn
    Made the Top 50 but that’s as far as I got.

      This is my pair of Elephant 8s from Y2.

      They were featured in a Fade Friday last summer:

            I'm thinking maybe the photos I submitted were of lower quality than the ones I posted here but it's whateves.

              Man @Oaktavia those things look great. I’d be curious to see the other photos that made the top 50. Call me cynical but I see a lot of people juking their Lightroom sliders — yours could’ve been too honest 😃

              @Jcaz6996 I also would love to see yours!

                I often wonder how much some photos were/are edited when folks take of their denim. I learned in my non-major photo class that if the viewer can tell the photo was altered, you've gone too far.

                    If you use the natural light of outdoors on a nice day at the right time, the photos need no altering! Perfect example of this. Crazy as shit to me these used to be dark dark dark indigo/black. Nice work indeed.

                      Looking back at it now there’s a few things I would change first do a initial soak.
                      Remember the first couple of weeks were brutal. Waited 6 months before doing a soapy soak
                      And washed 5 or 6 times in the year, would just hold off now and wash them at the end.

                        They look fantastic !!!
                        What have you done to keep them "fresh" ? There must be a point when they start smelling, or not ?

                          @Daniel San cheers 👍
                          i soapy soaked them in the bath 4 times in the last 6 months going through the summer months they were a struggle to work in but never really got to a point where they  smelled .

                            This is the worst they got with salt patches on the shins from sweating.

                                  Absolutely love this pair from Hall of Fades probably one of the best pair I’ve seen.

                                          They can be entered , it says "all styles and denims"
                                          I was thinking of them when I decided to take part in Y3 , but not knowing when the restock will be and the
                                          fact that they might be unwearable in summer made me switch to the 18oz.
                                          Now I will think about them again …..🤔
