@Ally74 just wear them! With a lot of wear the marble effect will blend into your fades

I will. Though these will inevitably now drop to the bottom of my rotation list. Anyways, I've a brand new pair of 555 XHS to concentrate on ...

@Ally74 They look great, bru! Wear the hell out of them - mine are even more comfortable after the wash. Be great to see these puppies fade completely… to black? Haha.. and best of luck with your new pair!!

Hi @Ally74 , I also use to soak black denim (just get it completely wet) direktly before putting it into the washer. This way it came out without streaks and marbeling even at 40°C...however, as the other folks said. This will even out anyway during future wear.
@denim-dawg they look sick. How long did you wear them?

Some office shots, I took yesterday:

[denim-dawg]

@beef_bonanza Thank you! They’ve had one soak, then probably about 200 days or so... They were by far my preferred jeans these past two years. And now this soak n wash. Black denim is so versatile, and I dig the way they go more gray the more they’re used. It’s so much fun with IH! All my other denims have broken to pieces hahaha

[denim-dawg]

@beef_bonanza This is why it’s addictive haha

[beef_bonanza]

@denim-dawg Respect. You really gave them hell in only 200 days! I also enjoy the process towards grey so much. Unlike any other black denim fabric I know. Not talking about that it became super comfy

[Salted Racer]

@beef_bonanza respect sir--those fades are inspirational!!

[jerkules]

I’m not a huge fan of black/black denim when new, but I LOVE this fabric when fades. Luckily for me it fades pretty quickly. Some inspiring examples above @beef_bonanza @denim-dawg . Cannot wait for my pair to look like yours.

[denim-dawg]

@beef_bonanza hahaha.. thank you. Life in the Arctic is hard.. haha. I haven’t counted but probably used them 3-4 times every week. Such a brilliant pair of clothing. Agree with you - black and then fades is irresistible Yours look epic!!! Best wishes

[denim-dawg]

@jerkules Good luck!! I’m super super happy with them. And they are really comfy. I liked them from day one.

[Gammaman]

@Ally74 I don’t soak mine just put the in dry it’s the spin cycle that does this usually. Just wear them hard and it will even out.

[Gammaman]

These jeans are so nice to wear.

[Jett129]

@Gammaman Belt is really cool as well. Who makes it?

[Gammaman]

The belt is by Tender I brought it after seeing one on @Anesthetist and yes the boots are RMC.

[denim-dawg]

@Gammaman Brilliant, mate! Did the look with your belt and boots - you’ve worn these to pieces and smithereeeens

[beef_bonanza]

[Mizmazzle]
