    @Daniel:

    @Jcaz6996
    does the Kaminati Samurai soap has a certain smell ? or odor ?
    we have no bath tub  ::) only a shower.

    It does mate like a earthly natural smell I like it .
    Could always wash in a plastic tub .

            Thx James,
            the 18oz vintage is a fantastic denim, not the fastest fader but very beautiful.
            Wait as long as possible before first wash. The last days were sweating , but it will be a bit colder next days.
            Since I wear IH stuff , I hate summer 😂

                    Cheers @Nkwkfld having a physical job helps we don’t stop all day .
                    Reason I entered last year the amount of time I’m out of the house and being on site erecting timber frame houses tough job a great job to beat a pair of jeans up.

                    Y2 was more concerned about keeping them clean to wear them 365/365 so first couple of months last year going through the winter wore waterproof bottoms over the top when it was wet and rainy on site .

                    This year starting in April haven’t bothered apart from the odd rainy day.
                    These are definitely fading quicker compared to my XHSIB I wore last year maybe that initial soak is key .

                          Have to see in 9 months if they make the cut be cool if they did though.

                            @Jcaz6996:

                            Your pair look great you thinking of wearing them every day until the end ?

                            Ahh sorry for the late reply. Definitely haven’t worn them every day since the start of the comp. First month barely wore them bc of fit issues and sending them out for alterations. But they’ve been almost daily wear since their return from Indigo Proof considering I only use them for work.

                              3 month update. 3 washes. It’s been a month of nonstop demo, drywall, & solid surface fab & install for kitchens and bathroom renos 😵‍💫.
