Indigo invitational Y4
-
The sun was out so though I’d do an update!
-
Unintended rain soak after these pics yesterday, but with a late start it was my 26th day of wear.
Future looks bright for these jeans!
-
IH-805 no washes or soaks 2nd submission and some extra shots. Everyone’s jeans are looking so good and my hands aren’t blue anymore.
-
February submission in the books :the_horns:
Still no days missed. No washes yet, and at over 60 days this is the longest I've ever gone without washing. (Previous "record" was 50 wears). Zero need for a wash so far though. It's been a fairly cold and long winter so that helps.
And after seeing some not so good results from washing SBG early on (severe marbling etc.) I want to hold out as long as possible.
-
Marbling can be prevented by soaking the jeans entirely right before washing, then washing in the washing machine with very low/no spin.
-
@cityofdelusion True, that usually does the trick. I always soak before washing. But in my experience, it doesn't work every time, and I've still had a bit of marbling on occasion
Not a big deal, but want to be extra safe with this pair. -
Gentle folks - my favourite denim peoples!
A pleasure to digest such exquisite top-notch fading!! Holy smokes - you guys inspire and spark joy!!Been wearing the two pairs IH555S-21 and IH805 every day now since Jan 10th, and they are fun fun fun. Here is an overall (!) picture after a month wear, when the sun finally popped out after two months of being behind the horizon:

And the protected 555 - being faded on the inside of the 805 hahah:
Man, tell ya, after wearing these all day long - when I take off the overall, the 21oz feels like wearing linen trousers hahaha
Have a great one and enjoy the day!

Double cuffing and double "jacronsing"

@JunkPants Deliciousness! Keep on 60 more before wash lol But seriously they look great!
Haha, thanks man! Will try to hold out as long as possible.
Both (!) your pairs are looking great and showing some serious progress!
I can only imagine the relief when the overalls come off after a long day -
@JunkPants Hooooold on haha - looking forward to following your journey!
Thank you so much for your kind words. You know, the double denim has grown on me
