      Remember seeing somewhere in IG on the total number of participants which stands around 600'ish I guess. Can't understand what the problem is! Is there any other way? I would definitely want to start wearing my pair tomorrow, the 1st of April.

        I think there are more than 800 participants.
        maybe technical problems 🙈
        as long as you saved the pics you can start wearing I think

            I can’t wait to see everyone’s fades. I’m pleased with the wide straight fit on these Oni’s. So much room for activities  😉

                Finally after several unsuccessful attempts, made the submission!

                Here is what I will be wearing! Don't know how I will cope up during Summer.

                Unlike my 666 XHS, I decided to do the initial soak before I start wearing them. Let me see what difference it makes.

                  If you follow the instagram feeds for the #indigoinvitational and #tripleindigo, there are lots of competitors with IH denim!  😘

                      While I love the way my Elephant 8 N&F turned out, I would have chosen IH last year if I had the chance. I really love the Elephant denims they put out but that is it.

                      I've seen several IH competitors out there on Instagram over the past day. 18ozII, Pronto Slubs, XHSbb to name a few are going to be hard to beat.

                          IH won first place last year https://tourdenimes.com/indigo-invitational-y2-top-ten/, but only three of the top ten were IH. There are definitely other brands that should not be underestimated.

                          But I understand what you are saying…IH is the best of the best as far as fades go.

                            ^ It is not only the fades for what IH is worth it. I just started to wear my 666 XHSiB as I did soak it this time before wearing it for the first time. Man to button up the waist was a challenge.

                            What do you guys do to accelerate your fades? I mean not artificially, but kind of natural way other than just wearing them and sitting in front of a computer which I do all day long.

                              @the246guy fades will come just got to be patient 364 days to go..
                              Slowly but surely as they say..

                              I’ve leant from last year from wearing 365/365 on average 14hours a day that your not going to win lol
                              The Winner last year just wore his leisurely and smashed it.
                              I work construction wearing them flat out and made the Top 50.
                              Went on bike rides, walked the dog 3miles probably 4 times a week.

                              Think around 6months you really notice a big change.

                              But just enjoy your pair and how they evolve and get to that finish line 🏁
                              Best of luck

                                Oh don't get me wrong, IH is on the top of the list for all the boxes checked for sure.

                                I have found that hiking, riding a bike, yardwork, housework…anything that requires lots of movement makes fades appear faster. Time being the ultimate factor though, of course.

                                  It also helps that IH is more robustly constructed so that they hang together throughout all those activities without needing as much repair.

                                  Think it, be it.

                                    There’s no other brand I would go for my whole wardrobe must be IH now apart from a few carhartt pieces.

                                      You guys are right! You need to wear them and do the action. Unfortunately none of that applies to me as my 10 Hours a day is gone sitting in front of the computer!  😶 😶

                                      May be I see this as a motivation to do lots of physical activity wearing the denim. I'm actually into Downhill MTB, but wearing the 666 would be not that comfortable on the trails.

                                        Wearing jeans MTBing is even worse–much worse--than wearing jeans skiing. Even if you're downhilling at a park with lifts. I shuddered when I read that 😃

                                          Wearing them cycling just speeds up crotch blow outs.
                                          That’s the big thing that went on mine towards the end.

                                          Honestly just wear them every day doesn’t matter if you have a office job plenty of contestants were in the same boat last year and incredible fades at the end.

                                            It's a no go wearing the XHS for MTB. I have learnt my lesson meeting with a nasty accident that would leave me without an ACL on my left knee.

                                            May be I have to start doing some other physical activity, not just to fade the denim but to in fact get to do something.
