And if you don't want marbling, make sure to soak those puppies. I did not soak mine when I had my pair as I was unaware of that precaution at the time.

[FlavourFade]

@Bern @Oaktavia thanks a lot guys!! Think I will soak them now and give them a wash then. Time to break in the 555 lefty while drying the xhsbb hehe

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade definitely a good idea and post photos if ya can

[FlavourFade]

@Oaktavia will do sir

[FlavourFade]

The lighting is not very good today unfortunately but took some pictures and am very satisfied that the grey is popping out a lot. Hope this first wash was a kickstart for more fades

(In real life the contrast ist more visible)

[Bern]

@FlavourFade machine wash? Looks good!

[FlavourFade]

@Bern yes, minimal spin, soaked inside out before. Very little marbeling in some spots but will blend in with more wear I guess. It's funny how they feel a little more rigid after they dried but at the same time softer somehow

[Bern]

@FlavourFade gotcha. Might throw mine in the tub this weekend while the wife and kids are away to tighten them back up a bit. It'll be my third wash in about 50 wears...

[Oaktavia]

@FlavourFade looking good dude those creases will reset and the fades will advance from here.

[FlavourFade]

@Bern @Oaktavia they have tightened up a little in the legs but not the waist in seems. Feel amazing after a couple hours they were like sweatpants

[FlavourFade]

In the xhsbb again after a couple of months working on other projects. Cool enough for 25oz today.

Almost 100 wears

[Mizmazzle]

@FlavourFade yeah dude!! Glad to see these on your legs.

[FlavourFade]

@Mizmazzle thanks my man!! Love them very much but too many pairs to handle

[Mizmazzle]

@FlavourFade ha! It’s def a real problem. Somehow I manage to keep my jeans down to 1-2 pairs in the primary rotation for fade purposes. It’s the shirts and jackets that I can’t seem to wrangle in!

@FlavourFade -love em. I need to get mine worn more often. Like you, too many to choose from.

I am around 70 days and am impressed by fading to date.
Any washes?

[Luijim78]

@FlavourFade gorgeous my friend , great job congratulations

[FlavourFade]

@Mizmazzle yeah, I do too, right now I am wearing my 555 lefty the most, on some hotter days I get out the ducks but today I felt like XHS might be okay temperature wise. With shirts I am super slow in fading because I can't wear them to work like my jeans

[FlavourFade]

@Crispy-Heron they are so cool and comfy! I am at exactly 93 days of wear with 2 washes. Usualy I wash my denim every 3 months but I felt like the bb can take a wash more to get that faded grey

[FlavourFade]

@Luijim78 thanks my friend, you are the one who helped me buy these, forever grateful
