Just stumbled upon this thread and wanted to add some progress photos

I am at about 18 months of wear on my 295-BB

Finished top 50 in last year’s redline rally and doing the second year now with it in the (re)dline category

Just did a first machine wash and it really took away a lot of the dirt and grime that was on it. The contrast popped quite significantly post wash.

Hoping to have one of the more worn in black shirt/jackets out there and showcase this awesome fabric’s character.

Fuck yeah dude! This shirt looks sooooo good!!! Bravo! I am so glad I have one of these shirts. Makes me not too bummed about selling my (too big) 16oz SBG Western.

@ah_long Wow this is the best faded 295BB. Great job of fading this shirt.

[Davids_denim]

@ah_long really awesome fades man. The 295 line up is just crazy.

@ah_long wow!!

[Oaktavia]

@ah_long amazing...frequently washed?

[ah_long]

@Oaktavia

A few hand washes in the first year, did its first machine wash a few weeks ago

With half a year left in the contest and with the current wear pattern, I am thinking of incorporating regular machine washes (once a month or so) and see how it does. I was surprised at how much dirt and grime was covering the shirt when it came out of the machine cycle.
