@Mizmazzle Super cool and super nice photos and jeans. Makes me want to take similar ones from my pair this year and last year. Do you have a pair from three years ago too or did you start last year? I think I started focusing on one pair per school year three years ago, staring with 777XHSbb. Hopefully I can find some nice natural lighting outside after work later and I'll tag ya.

@Mizmazzle Sik Fadez BRUH! lol love it, they look magnificent. Crazy how much it looks like it's lightened all over with so few washes, and the contrast still poppin'.

@Oaktavia I'd like to see your recap too, man. between you guys and the others around here, I just may have to stop putting off my purchase of XHS by the time fall comes around. So many pairs, so few legs.

[Mizmazzle]

Thanks for the good feedback ya’ll! Really stoked to see what next year’s results look like!!

@Oaktavia three years back was a pair of 21oz OD. Those were probably worn about 70% of the time. Before I went Uber nerd and starting keeping wear days data. I’ll get a shot of all three soon!

@Oaktavia amazing how similar the indigo and ib look at that stage! Early stage ib fades look very different for me!

Yup, eventually ib fades look pretty close to indigo/beige, it surprised me too when I first realized that is what happens.
