      30 degrees day after day sucks and makes wearing the XHS unpleasant. Hope everyone else is coping up. I have totally lost wearing my XHSiB over the last few weeks.

        glad I chose the 18oz. It’s not a perfect summer denim but I managed to wear em almost all of the
        hot summer days. think I only missed 2 or 3 days were it was 34-36 degrees.
        had to wash it one time more than planned because of all that sweat 🥵
        but I think it’s getting faster after the second wash , starts to look great 👍

          @Jcaz6996
          I think you should bring another pair in rotation, otherwise you end up with a complete to white faded pair
          😃
          great job

          I’ve missed 8 days now been wearing UHR recently as Josh is repairing them tomorrow so didn’t want to get them mucky and have to wash them again so soon.

                Impressed by all these fades. I entered the Invitational this year and I’m ready to give up on my pair. Picked the wrong denim.

                  @GardenState what pair did you enter with? I’m feeling the same about dropping out…more so intentionally just to wear other denim tho 😂

                    With very little experience with Pure Blue Japan I picked the PBJ indigo x black 013. Which is I believe 18oz denim. I find the cut to be too slim. Although the denim feels substantial it is not like the pairs I have waiting to be worn. My biggest gripe is I don’t think I like the indigo x black combination. It feels too business casual and not traditional enough if that makes sense. I think I’d prefer my indigo denim to be separate from black denim moving forward. And really I would just like to wear other things and have slowly started to.

                    Right now I have a pair of xhs which is calling my name and I would really like to find a good black denim. Sorry for the rant  😃

                      Don’t drop out even if you’re not wearing your pair as much just keep submitting monthly pictures you may feel different about them in a couple of weeks . Wear them when you can and by the end your have one amazing pair .

                      I’m currently only wearing mine in work now, switching up to 555s-19L after work.

                        I managed to hang in there last month and basically posted pics with no progress so I will probably stick it out. I truly salute the people that can go a solid year without cheating with other pairs. I don’t if I’m getting old or I have ADD but so many other pairs (a few) are calling my name.

                        Need to find a solid pair of black denim too.

                          I did it last year 365/365 no days missed and only wore that one pair.
                          This year I’ve missed 8 days already not fused enjoy wearing other pairs just keep submitting monthly pictures plenty of time left yet ..

                                have seen the pics James ! congrats  😉
                                the XHS are great ! they need more wears of course to get comfy. 
                                are you entering the Redline rally ? will take part with 292-ind , if they´ll be restocked since then. second choice would be a 526 lefty

                                  Considering it mate… also was thinking a 526-L would be sick I would wear that every day in work .
                                  Think you can enter 2 items but only submit 1 at the end..
                                  If a SBG-CPO was released I would enter with that too ..

                                      Not fused on the slubby to be honest mate like the well worn high contrast look.
                                      How’s the Big Buck ? looks so sick ..
                                      Trying to make my mind up on getting one ..

                                        the buck is unbelievable, will bring it in regular rotation soon.
                                        as I said, there is nothing comparable 😄👍

                                          Don’t quite understand why there posing my pair so often with 800+ contestants must be loads of pairs a ton better then mine but great full for kind words.
                                          The picture was a rush as I nearly missed the deadline and still got posted  😃

                                          Thanks @Daniel San for the comment 👍

                                            they post your pair , because it’s awesome 😄
                                            the answer is so easy mate
                                            and yours is the best I’ve seen there so far !
                                            most important, it is authentic!!
                                            when I see some of the asian guys jeans, I doubt that they got those fades just by wearing 🤔
