The 801 is a great choice @Leadley
Please post in the IH-801 Cotton Duck Double Knee Logger thread also. -
@Mister_Brue Why would you care about what a random person says online? People will always talk shit, especially the keyboard warriors.
Edit: And if you care about my 0.02 - the slub looks sick!
-
@Mister_Brue Don't bother about it. Yeah. No way my jeans look like that after a year, but that does not mean your's could not. And those do not look like bricked anyways. Nice pair of pants!
-
@Mister_Brue I think casual observers of the denim/fading scene underestimate our commitment/obsession with wearing our jeans as much as humanly possible.
To somebody that doesn't wear their jeans for work, and isn't actively trying to create as much wear and tear as possible within a fixed period of time, the fades on your jeans probably seem unachievable/fake. Those in the know, however (the ones that really matter
), can clearly see these to be a product of natural wear and real love for your garment.Hell, I can fuck up a pair pretty badly in 12 months and I work an office job!
The saying 'Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to ignorance' comes to mind, these fools just don't know any better...
-
@Mister_Brue you know they’re not fake, although I guess brick is not that far away from stone!
-
@Mister_Brue said in WAYWT - The Hard Labour Edition aka "Working in your workwear".:
“rubbing it with a brick...”
Anyone who’s anyone knows bricking a crotch blow out is so in
But yeah, more or less what @tody said, don’t even bother. They look sick 2X!
-
@Mister_Brue Well, for a start, way too few people still know what actual manual labor is. I certainly don't, all I have to offer is 'office fades'.
But that probably goes hand in hand with many of these people still considering themselves tough and rugged.
So there's probably only a few people actually putting these - expensive - pieces of clothing through any real abuse. Definitely two worlds colliding there... -
My jeans reflect my lifestyle and profession. When I visit customers I wear chinos and a shirt. When I work from home I sit at a desk and wear denim. Plus, I wash when they're dirty or smell, and I prefer "vintage" fades to high-contrast. If I tried to go for a different fade pattern that would be disingenuous in my opinion
