      Learn. As you go long.

      But still that question rises.
      With the new freshee should I soak or not.

      Six months wear them raw.

      Put them in sand and wash in the ocean.

      All nonsense this crap

      I always soak my 25oz first.

      But they your jeans feel free do what you like.

      🤣🤣🤣🤣

        from my experience they even fade faster when soaked and washed.

          🤣 I know I have to give them an initial soak now . Like I did with my XHS

          That’s what I’m saying this time around…I would give them an initial soak, I wouldn’t get them hemmed as I like the original length. I wouldn’t have turn up cuffs leave them down because i like the look of loose stacks like my 555sSBG . Few changes different outcome.. main one easy break In period 😄

              Here is my pair, fresh after a wash. I'm at 417 wears. For the first time, they need some repair/reinforcement in the crotch--one area there is wearing pretty thin.

                    Cheers! Yes I don't think I usually get that far, at least not with other brands. But these are still in pretty good shape. My aim is to get to a 1000 wears.

                        @Lowlander daaannggg! What's your plan for repairs? Mine are in need too. Was hoping to wait until XHS season is over but I don't think they can make it that long.

                          @hoppy_IPA The damage isn't too serious yet, so I'm probably going to ask a local tailor to run a couple of stitches over the thin area for reinforcement. That will be quickest, cheapest, and take up the least "footprint." If things get a lot worse later on, I will send them too IHUK.

                                  @spaniarddh yep, current best guess is Aug/Sept. We've only just put the production order in

                                  The devil is in the detail..

                                        Yes that looks cool! Definitely one step up from having a small wrench in your back pocket.

                                          That's pretty unique on the back pockets--never seen anything like that before. I dig it! Anything but brass knuckle fades hahaha

                                            I am a slow fader but i think they are moving in the right direction. Around 50 wear days, 1 soak, 4 washes.
