@hoppy_IPA dude that pair is looking super good, good combo of contrast and vintage fade. Wears and washes?

[weftyarn]

excellent fit and welcome to the club @WhiskeySandwich

these were my first IH bottoms and they’re still my favorite

from the archive… some 50 wears since then

[WhiskeySandwich]

@weftyarn thanks! And that pair you’ve got is legendary. I always enjoy when you post those

(Unspectacular) update on my 888: wear day 28 - slow but steady…

[drewfonse]

@Mickey-GT

That’s actually a decent amount of change from new in only 26 wears

[WhiskeySandwich]

@weftyarn heck yeah!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Mickey-GT lightening up already! Frequent washes?

Yup: twice - because of hiking and riding the bike a lot in the warm spring sun.

[Mickey GT]

Wear day 39; pretty happy with the evolution thanks to a lot of cycling and hiking…

Cooor, that's how 888's should look!

[WhiskeySandwich]

Man! looking good. I'm only a week in and there are practically zero signs of fades lol. These and my Ducks are my current rotation unless i'm in the beater 142s. These 21's are my 'indoor pair' for now. lol but they still get plenty of wear.

Update on my 888:

Pictures are taken after a machine wash (the third one, to be precise) and 53 wear days.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Mickey-GT Dang, they DO fade! Mine still looking brand new somehow lol

[Mizmazzle]

@Mickey-GT sick!!
Are you machine drying them too? The patch is looking good and “Evo’d” as well!!

@WhiskeySandwich how long have you had yours? Ive had mine 3 years worn on and off and they have faded a lot, I have washed them every few months in that time though. Will get some pics up next week
