@WhiskeySandwich this is ultra awesome. Such a cool layout. If I could tile my floor with this pattern I would.

@Jcaz6996 amazing man. Are you going to stick with it or switch to something else?

[Jcaz6996]

@SKT Thanks … patiently waiting for the 21oz SBG but until then I’ll continue wearing this I do love this Type lll

@Mister_Brue I would say 10 years or so.

I can't seem to remember who I was talking to about evo on easy shorts. Here are mine that I wear each time I exercise on my stationary bike. Washed after each session I have lost count. Dozens I would say.

Hello nice people from all over the world

I'd like to share some evo pictures of my 21oz 888s that I bought in March '24:

I really like how they've developed.

Have a great weekend!

@RobeOfTheMagi I really like how they've developed too! Awesome fades man. I had a pair and sold them, they looked a lot like these. Makes me miss 'em!

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Yes, they're lovely mate.I really enjoy the process of fading them by simple living my life. While I change my sweaters and shirts fairly regularly, I wear this pair of jeans nearly every day that is not too warm. I bike commute, teach and arm wrestle in them <3.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Initially I thought they'd produce these high contrast fades you see on other very heavy denim. I only learned about the evolution of 21oz denim after buying them.

@RobeOfTheMagi They look where I'm looking to get! Wears / washes / soaks?

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@indigostiff Thank you! I think I've soaked them after a week of wear and they got the first machine wash after about 20 weeks of wear. From then on I've washed them another 5-6 times. I don't think delaying washes after the first machine wash compromises the fades anymore.

They got about 180 days of wear and probably many hundred kilometres of bike riding.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

This might be considered cheating but I'm not participating in any fading competitions. I actually don't like washing my jeans after every hike through forests or after playing with my son in the sand.

I think it's much more resourceful to simply brush dirt and dust off. I've good a high quality cloth brush with horse hair and bronze bristles.
