      @pechelman I honestly don’t get it .It’s just his way of life but shit me it looks disgusting. Looks like you could snap it in half its that brittle. My idea of fading anything is achieving something I’m proud of and that you continue to wear long after the competition .
      Each to their own , his jeans look the same think he was in the top 10 ii Y3

          @Jcaz6996 When I see your fades I think "wow, amazing, wish mine would look that good". When I see his I think "buy a washing machine"

            That’s jacket is done by a framer.

            They work in the mud.

            I have seen the video. Still raw as fuck never been wash.

            Wouldn’t says it’s the best fades.

            No potential at all looking at it.

            That’s why I don’t do competition.

            Kinda put you down.

            Champion you. Know what I mean

              That one, to my eyes, has more of a shock factor. I bet it doesn't look that good washed thus why they left it unwashed. Not a fan at all. I don't wanna be negative in the denim community but I did not vote for that one at all. I voted for mostly the different style of jackets/shirts plus the IH peeps.

                A bit surprised I got to vote, but apparently participating in the latest Indigo Invitational grants you voting rights.

                I actually thought there were a lot of excellent entries this time around. Voted for @Jcaz6996 needless to say.
                Loved the 25oz Samurai chore coat.

                I imagine the UES Tricotine shirts will keep selling well.

                Several nice pieces from Rogue Territory.

                I found the Oni chore coat very impressive, not easy to get fades (and combs) like that on softer, loose weave denim.

                And that Piger Works shirt has taken a serious beating, in a good way if you ask me.

                The importance of the quality of the photos became very apparent. That can really make or break your chances.

                @Cents-or-Non-Cents Shock and awe? Or shock and horror? 😁
                My initial reaction was that they didn't have time to give it a wash and submit final pictures. That said, can't really blame someone for using workwear for work. Wonder what it actually looks like under all the mud. I still find it kind of cool (or perhaps fascinating is more fitting) in its own extreme way, even if it didn't make my top 10, and I must admit to feeling a certain revulsion at the thought of putting it on.

                  It could be either/or, to be honest @JunkPants. The fact that he wore Piger Works denim, the irony is not lost on me. The first time I saw it, I wondered if they had rolled around in mud the whole year. Wore the same denim for pants, I think, for the year, too, and, to my knowledge, has not washed either in a year. To me, that is gross. Debatable that it makes better fades but we willl see how voting comes out.

                  When does RR usually start up? I feel like I remember April sometime...

                    Made the Top 16 😀
                    P2 with the public Vote 🙏

                    The founder now picks 4 wildcards to go before a panel of judges to pick the top 10..

                    Not getting my hopes up same thing as II Y3 made the Top 16 with P4 with the public vote but never got picked by the judges to make the Top 10..

                        @Jcaz6996 IMHO you definitely deserve top 5 or so given the high contrast but also „cleanness“ and great aesthetic of the fades. That jacket just looks amazing. Some of the other top 16 are either not as well faded or just not good looking anymore 😅

                        Use it or lose it.

                          @weftyarn cheers bud Lol IMO only think there’s one jacket on par with mine , that’s the cowboys but personally I think it’s not as Rich & sharp looking as mine .
                          Have to see what the judges decide to go for most probably the mank dirty one 😆

                                          Honestly, I think they were judged well! For the first five, I wouldn't really know how to place them.
