The fades aren't winning any awards any time soon, but going on just over 2 years with these and I'm loving how they're progressing after their most recent wash.

@SonnyTheElder beeeautiful! This denim is the best, range of color, contrast, how the red W pops like neon. I just love it.

@Oaktavia beautiful fades man. I should have grabbed these last time they were in and just sat on them.

[flannel slut]

Hot damn man. Fucking beautiful in that lighting

[Oaktavia]

@Davids_denim thanks David and that's exactly what I did actually. They hung up on a hook unworn for about 6 months.

[Oaktavia]

@flannel-slut this particular denim pairs well with sunsets.

@Oaktavia coms and stacks looking epic.

[Oaktavia]

@twin feeling pretty good about it. It's my first time stacking and this denim is great for it.

[GardenState]

@Oaktavia Have to agree with @twin the stacking is really looking good. I'm letting my SBGs and 21ODs stack as well and am happy with the results. Of course you know those XHSibs look fantastic with those New Balance as well sir!

Thanks man, I think the size of the hem on the 888 is great for stacking. Those NB have two of my favorite colors and I love how it looks with the medium grey.

[GardenState]

@Oaktavia Yellow and purple? The yellow in the shoe definitely ties into the hem on the denim really well

[Oaktavia]

@GardenState turquoise and purple, my favorites.

58 days today with these going 50:50 with 888UHR.

[Oaktavia]

I love these pants

[twin]

@Oaktavia Love the look of your pants / 888s.

[Oaktavia]

@twin thanks dude, you and me both seem to love the XHSib quite a lot.

These have been worn for one year straight with just the initial soak; no washes. Typically at this point, I’d just give them a soak with a mild hand wash. I decided to try something new and threw them in the washer on no spin cold wash, after an hour-long soak.

The lighting isn’t ideal, so I’ll try to take some more pictures in natural lighting. I’ll be sending these off to IH for some repairs. In the meantime, I’ll be switching gears to the 888-SBG

[Oaktavia]

@caithangkhanh perfection. Are these before or after your wash?

[caithangkhanh]

@Oaktavia

D’oh! I should’ve clarified. The cuffed is pre-wash. The uncuffed is post-wash.

The fact that you weren’t able to tell the difference speaks to how bad the lighting (and my photography skills) is.

I’ll take some pictures in natural light sooner than later.
