@Lowlander:

And this denim does fade fast and to high contrast.

Now, what is this new XHS that @Oaktavia spoke of earlier in this topic?!?
I'm here for it

@Giles mentioned it on a different thread. Care to elaborate good sir dude?

@Lowlander What are you doing in them jeans? Fades are epic.

@Smiladon Your fades are getting better all the time.  @alexswords Like the sunny fades pics. Keep on rocking them 555-XHSib.

I've even started rocking mine uncuffed most of the time, cuz I liked how yours looked, all stacked up! Cheers

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.

I have started cycling in mine too and have developed some new whiskers, that I normally don't get. Low and long

Morel season is about to begin in my area so I will be spending many hours in the woods in the coming weeks.

@Oaktavia @Smiladon the new XHS iteration is the proprietry 25oz XHS but dyed in a similar way to this year’s 14oz black on black denim. The warp is rope dyed with sulphur and the weft is sulphur dipped. Black denim that will fade, in other words.

@oaktavia could be a pip! Could be a pip…
Maybe next indigo invitational? I was just looking at the 555 03, per @alexswords

I wish I could say I lead a really active life, @twin, but I don't really! I think the cycling probably accounts for most of the fades. Also, we had a rainy winter over here, so I got my legs wet a few times. That may explain some too.

Loved your recent fade pics on this thread by the way. Not just the 555-XHSib, but also the lefty jacket, and the CPO. Awesome!

I was thinking that exactly…denim stars must align.

I was looking at 555-03 too but opted for the 555-01. I just can't get enough of blue jeans mang.

So rad. Thanks for sharing. And who doesn't love a good afghan blanket?

[twin]

Thanks @Oaktavia  The afghan blankets were made by my mom. They keep me nice and warm at night in bed.
