@Oaktavia love these photos…invisible man pose!! Them fades ain’t nuthin to shake a stick at either.

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle thanks man, I'm just now starting a pants rotation at work. Feels weird not to wear my XHS everyday now. Do you still wear yours everyday to work? Middle schools students sometimes notice haha but you were saying your elementary students were all about the fades, right?!

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia this year I’m doing a rotation between my XHS and my XHSbb….been at in now for three weeks since being back at school.

So far nobody’s noticed the two pairs rotation. My 5th graders noticed when I wore one pair all year, but I also told them about it and taught them about the denim head game. They got into it too!! Was fun to watch them notice when my jeans really started to pop and they’d come up and show me their “whiskers” on their washed Levi’s or Gap or whatever jeans.

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle Yeah, I think two pairs only are able to be pulled off. That's so funny to hear they would point out their fades to you too hahaha...

I'm going for a full year with my XHS, trying to get up to 250 days or so in that year, which ends around Halloween. As much as I wanted to start wearing my new pair of XHSib to start off the school year, I want to get that full Halloween to Halloween. My XHS are just now starting to really show off nicer combs and 50 or so more days would be great. Plus, I have another thing to look forward to on or around All Hallows!

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia sounds like a solid plan indeed!!

I’m hoping to push each of my pairs into the mid 400s of wears by the end of the school year…get some real deep whites poppin!

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle dude hell yeah, that's uncharted territory for me. Pushing to the 400s is way cooler than buying new jeans.

[WhiskeySandwich]

I wanna see what my 21ib will look like at 400 wears. i can totally see them getting to the level of James's xhsib. They're beginning to work themselves back into my rotation since it's been cooling off. His pair is magnificent

[Mizmazzle]

Yeah…450 wears on both my XHS and XHSbb are my life goals this school year….

Unless Santa brings me those UHRs I’ve been wanting to get into. Would probably shelf them though until next year if the fat man delivers.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich magnificent indeed my dude

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle put 'em on ice

Never fully appreciate how much my jeans change with time until I compare them to a crispy new pair...

@T4920 I always enjoy comparison pics like this. You’re building a great collection too

@T4920 very nice, Tom. If ya had to pick a favorite, which one would you choose?

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle purely based on the denim itself... 18oz Vintage!

Perfect weight for year round wear, subtle slub without looking like a novelty, and beautiful texture that is so satisfying to stroke

Favourite based on cut is the overdyed 18s, 633 is a Self Edge exclusive though, which will be difficult for me to get here in the UK...
