IH-555-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo/Black

[Lowlander]

Great to hear from you @swiss-jeansfreak! Your XHS jeans do look fantastic!

As it happens, I gave mine their first wash yesterday, after 120 days of wear.

Here follows a large number of pics!

Pre-wash:

I found out they were pretty filthy…

Then some post-wash pics:

They were stiff as a board again when they had dried up, so I had some fun with them:

Love the high contrast areas. Nice work @Lowlander . Did you soak them when you first got them?

[Lowlander]

Thanks, @Palmer! Yes, I gave them an initial hot soak before wearing them.

Inspiration for my pair. I'm trying to get in as many days before it gets too hot.

@Lowlander:

@Oaktavia, I checked out swissjeansfreak's pair of XHS on Instagram. 1000+ wears, and unwashed! The pair looks really impressive. And probably smells awful!

Sure, will post some pre- and post-wash pics!

Yeah you got me and my still never ever washed  25 oz IH jeans are not so fresh anymore after 1008 wear days ha ha

Still super cool dude and the wildest looking pair of XHS I've ever seen!

I love the fresh crisp look of these after a wash. Washing really does bring out some color changing.

Couple of bathroom shots a couple days after my 4th(?) soak. 2+ months of wear…

Wow, you‘re a fast fader!
Amazing denim evo results created by your magic legs in 180 days only!!!!
How hardcore faded will they look after 1000 full wear days

[Lowlander]

Thanks again @swiss-jeansfreak! I think the combination of regular cycling and being a parent to a 5 and 3 year old speeds up the process![emoji16] And this denim does fade fast and to high contrast.
