    @kantian thanks dude, it has been a pleasure fading it. I am stoked to keep wearing it and see how it continues to evolve.

      I've had low 20 temps and snow where I live so the 140 has taken a backseat to the 101j-SR. I manage to get a little wear in at home. I gave it a soak. I was going to wash it, but I tried a little agitation and it didn't want to give up any indigo so I figured a soak would do fine.

        @kantian how many wears did you have on yours before the soak?

          @ZackB Tbh, I don't really keep track. I had planned on waiting till spring, but I didn't want the fading to be too high contrast, so when I noticed how quickly it fades I changed it up. If I had to guess, I would say around sixty actual wears with fifteen to twenty try-ons, but it could be over a hundred. Lol. I know that's not helpful. I'm wearing multiple jackets so they kind of meld together at this point.

            @kantian that definitely helps. I’m at 48 wears now, I’ll probably give it a little while longer.

              Coincidentally my first wash with mine was 48 wears.

                  @ZackB could be...does it stink? Is it visibly dirty?

                    @Oaktavia I threw it in the wash. It was getting a little stinky and was getting that shiny look to it.

                      @ZackB nice yeah that sounds about right. Stoked to see how it looks after the wash.

                        @Oaktavia appreciate the help. I’ll post some pictures when it’s dry.

                          @ZackB I think it just comes down to personal preference. Imo, there's really not a right or wrong way. I'll do a low-agitation soak every couple of months when it starts to stink or it's really dirty. Get all the grime, dirt, and dust out. When I feel all my creases are well broken-in and I'm getting fades along most of the edges I'll do heavy agitation wash. I usually end up with a tub full of blue water. After it's about 80% dry I'll put it on and wear till I dry. I love doing this. The denim molds to your body and your movements.

                            @kantian thanks man, I’ll definitely give all the ideas in here a try and see what method works for me. Can’t wait to see how everybody’s fades look in a few months.

                              @ZackB For sure, man. The beauty is it's not like you're going to hurt the denim. You would have to wash every other day to get a bleach out fade. For me, figuring out a washing process has been part of the fun.

                                Few from the post wash. Coolest fade to me so far is the inside arm seam. Just gotta keep wearing it. Love this jacket so much.

                                    Bought one of these from kentaurus this week. Damn, I love this jacket already. It feels so smooth and light compared to my other jackets. Let's get some fades on this.

                                        @Oaktavia I know my 526J-142ib feels like a t shirt compared to this but I’m in the south so my definition of cold is very particular, so like 40 degrees 😂

                                          21oz superblack type 3. Own and wear that one for 5 winters now and it is still super stiff and heavy. Guess I can wear that for my funeral still being pretty stiff and looking brand new in 40 years or what. Haha

                                          And I got a 19oz lefty OD which became pretty soft fast but still feels way heavier than the 140ig. I don't know. Maybe it's just me.
