MD humidity.

I lived in MD for 35 years of my life. Just recently moved across the river (literally less than a mile from the border) to WV. Where at in MD you living? I spent most of my time in Frederick.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia I wish I could make the commute from WV, love it there, just can’t stand the beltway. I’m in Calvert, next to the bay, but work up north. I can’t wait to get out of the rat race in central MD. I’m about as far as I can get away from it and still make the drive. I’m def more of a backwoods type dude. We get up your way every so often, I’ve got friends in Gerardstown.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich oh nice man I have family in Prince Frederick and Lusby. And yeah don't miss the beltway area one bit.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Oaktavia shoot, it’s a small world! I never see anyone rocking raws around here, let alone IH, but if run into ya I’ll be sure to say hey, brother!

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich hell yeah man

[WhiskeySandwich]

Little recording sesh snap with the cheater flash on to make the combs pop. It’s hard to photograph denim in a way that really captures it properly. Regardless, These are my favorite. I want them to last a long time so I might start washing them a little more, especially since it’s HOT outside.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Alright, just got back from Florida for a week and these guys put work in so they’re getting their second wash after about 4 months of wear.

@WhiskeySandwich Those are starting to look great

[JunkPants]

@WhiskeySandwich Looking very good!

[WhiskeySandwich]

Thanks dudes, I love em. The fades seem to be accelerating and I think this wash frequency will turn out some nice results. I’m eyeing the 21od restock though so there’ll be 3 in rotation at that point with the 142bb.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich fantastic work my dude. Looking so awesome with your fades.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Had to do a third wash thanks to our kayak fishing trip yesterday. Got em covered in bay water, sand, and fish slime.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Crazy how different the iPhones modes look, hard to capture accurately.

[replus]

@WhiskeySandwich Those look incredible! I really like the character of this denim. Thank you for the motivation to finally start wearing mine. I bought a pair when they launched last year, and just haven't found the time to break them in and/or get them in my rotation. I'm gonna live in them over the weekend to get things going.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich that pair has got the zing!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@replus hell ya, thanks man! It’s really great stuff. They do it all, Swiss army pants - they work for every occasion. Would love to see some pics of the evo - seems like results vary a lot on these depending on wash frequency.

[replus]

Oh, I'm a slow pokey fader, especially in these post-COVID times -- I'll check in with some pics in a few years! LOL I'm also finally just getting into the good stuff with my 21oz pair, after... 3 years

[WhiskeySandwich]

Just ordered me a pair of the 21ib. If they fit, these may be resting for the season.

[Fades for future]

250 wear days...

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Fades-for-future those looks great man! How many wears per wash you average? Mine will probs be hanging out till the heat comes back next year.
