      Great pairs Pipo & Reuben [emoji123]

      And yeah, i was a little lazy in writing. Worn them ca 60-70 days but i missed some days in my count… and yeah i pretty much try to wear them for  everything - Just living in them, not baby-ing them and not making rocket science out of raw denim and washing.

      I'm playing with my 4 months old son on the ground, riding bike to work... I'm working as a social worker in families with little children, means, playing with them too is part of my job, mostly on playgrounds etc.
      Also i was helping some friends move-in to new flats and my wife forced me to set up a lot of baby-ikea-stuff and re-organize our flat and cellar haha... I'm surprised myself. Gotta admit that wearing the same pair without rotation everyday helps also and as you pointed out, that denim is very fade friendly, heavy and abrasive. And once worn in it‘s quite comfortable!

        ^ This is a great fading technique [emoji1]

        Yours and @don_pipone pairs are a bit better than mine but they’re all just a work in progress.

        The UHR is splendid stuff and it is a shame it’s extinct. I’ll be interested to see if Haraki-san ever revisits loomstate, fast fading, heavy denim in the future.

            I must suck at wearing jeans.  Mine have about 4 months of solid IDGAF wear on them and the fades aren't progressing nearly as quickly as those previously posted.  I actually just replaced a fuel pump driver module on my truck while wearing mine today….rolling around on the ground...under my truck...yet I still won't get the fast fades.

            With that being said though they do fade faster for me than all my other pairs do.

              Just wear the shit out of them, soak now and then that will run the colour out

                That's what I do….I've never been able to get fades fast for some reason.

                  85 days of wear currently. The car key fade is my favorite on those.
                  Weather is getting warmer and warmer these days. I‘m afraid I won’t be able to wear them any longer this season soon.

                      I am still amazed how fast this denim fades.

                        Gave my pair a soak/„wash“ after 102 days of wear. Love the result as the fades popped out a lil more.

                            The key hanger fade and the front pocket-bag fades are awesome!

                              Hi All,

                              These 777-UHR’s are my first pair of Raw’s.  They have about 4-5 months of occasional wear but have seen a lot more use lately and have become my favorite pair (by a lot).  Here’s a pic after their first wash 😎

                                        no way i'm believing Iron Heart is disco'ing the UHR.  for starters, its just way too damn amazing.  two - how you gonna be a serious about denim & write off Loom Sate?
                                        kidding aside, UHR was my first pair of Iron Hearts so to me it was normal.  although im new, the sage guidance about sanforization/washing taking the life out of your denim holds a certain amount of weight to me now.  this doesn't mean Im prejudice as i find all sorts of jeans appealing.  more so curious if others also find loom state to be where they want to be.

                                        777-UHR 4 months of extreme weekend warrior wear.  i've watched several movies in this pair, mowed the lawn a few times & even washed our cars ???
