      @hoppy_IPA yeah man can't beat the price it is big time bang for your buck. I've had more expensive knives in the past and it functions as essentially the same tool.

                  These jeans stink so bad. I can't take it anymore at 98 days. I wanted to make it to 100 days but I am getting a tattoo on my thigh tomorrow and won't be wearing dirty jeans over a new tattoo anyway. Plus it's 90+ outside the next few days. It just seems obvious that it is time. Longest I've never gone this long without a proper machine wash. Interestingly enough, at nearly 100 wears, these are absolutely the slowest faders I have worn. They're in the machine now. Dried photos in a few days.

                    Some detail shots from this morning. Still quite dark and stubbornly holding onto the ink. 100 wears today.

                          @Oaktavia I was expecting this to happen. Nothing like a proper machine wash to get rid off the already loose particles from stress areas.
                          But mostly I’m mesmerized by the coin pocket photos. The way the warp looks there under tension, the geometry of it.

                            @Karol serious slow burner though compared to the XHSib. With my last pair of those at this point, the electric blues were crazy popping. Double dipped in those OD really make these fades something to earn.

                              Progress with these Mad Black. Two machine washes and one dryer cycle. I think that helped loosen up the dye. They were still super dark prior.

                                  yup, they are finally showing signs of fading in multiple types of light. I wanted to show both indoor and outdoor.

                                    Perfect lighting to see the fades. I'm excited about these more than ever. What a unique, fun denim to wear. So curious how these will evo over the next year +.

                                        @Mizmazzle hahaha good eye my guy. I actually had two of them made. It was set up by a prior admin I think like 7 or 8 years ago. I tried to get them to do them again but just the two so far. Maybe I'll advocate for one this year. I held a Vincent van Gogh book in one and Fellowship the Ring on the other.

                                          I’ve asked so many times if we can run that campaign again!!
