@Giles we’ve got a thread for this now you know…

[Matt]

Unless of course you just did this to get Tiger to pay more attention to you.

@SamD described mine as "velvetty" today, so not quite the hardcore fades I was hoping for just yet it seems

Impressive evolution in only 2 months @Giles !!

[Oaktavia]

@Giles those look super nice already. You use a machine to wash your denim, correct? Soak first, inside out, no spin, hang dry?

[AdamJ]

@Oaktavia he 'washes' them in one of these

@Giles Well, this thread has officially served its purpose from a business point of view...

I now want these jeans I had no interest in 3 months ago!

I am trying to pretend I do not also feel the same way.

[AdamJ]

@Oaktavia @T4920 it's a great denim. @AdamC @Giles have both done great work on their pairs. Can't imagine how they're going to look after another 6 months wear!

I definitely wouldn't mind seeing this denim get the shirt/jacket treatment

Type II FTW...seriously would be spectacular...

@AdamJ You want to borrow it ?

@Oaktavia - My regime. When they look or feel dirty or smell, then I wash them. I soak and agitate them a lot right-side out in hot water with a couple of squirts of washing up liquid added (it's what happens to be next to the sink in the utility room). I then turn them inside out and put them in the washing machine with whatever one of these is lying around:

The machine is set to 30 or 40 degree C with the shortest wash cycle that our machine allows. I spin them at 300 or 400rpm, but never spin on the first wash though, too much-associated risk), then I drip dry, or if in a rush, stick them on a radiator...
