Alright, I didn’t wear them skiing because it was too damn cold but I did rock ‘em riding my good bud “Nacho” on the trail ride. Plz disregard my ski clothes cause I was freezing

Official wash week…I’ll post some pics when I get it done

@Daniel-San I misspoke about the height of the belt loops. I became curious and measured my 888s and then my 822s. The height is indeed longer on the 822s than other jeans I own.

The height from the top seam to the bottom of the belt loop attachment is 2 inches on the 888s. The 822s is .25 inches longer at 2.25”.

Just a little bit of technical data on the belt loops as discussed several posts up from this one.

@SKT horse hair and saddle fades!! OG as hell!!

[Denman John]

@SKT That definitely looks like some ideal horse riding country. Enjoy your time there!

[SKT]

I’m afraid there’s not much evo since the last round but thought I’d put some pre-wash pics up. They’re in the wash now and I’ll post some more after they dry. Really love these, they’ve been my cold weather buddies these past few months

Silver dollar in the coin pocket ^

Is it the 822s specifically that get this incredible roping or does all the OG 21oz rope out like this?

[Denman John]

I just got my 822s hemmed after a year of wearing them cuffed and losing the roping hurt a little bit…

[Mizmazzle]

@Denman-John oh I bet. I do think cuffing is what brings out the best roping. I don’t cuff my other jeans and they don’t have that beautiful clean roping. More tattered and ragged looking.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle I have a theory that the triple stitching creates more tension but no proof. They really do get awesome roping though so there has to be a reason. More than my other 21 OG

Thought I’d throw out a few more pics “post wash” and before I hang them up for the warmer months. They’ve been so fun to wear this past winter…be fun to see where they go next year.

[Mizmazzle]

Hell yeah, Sean. Yours are looking real nice. Do you recall how many washes yours have had so far?

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle thanks man and yes…one wash and dry when I got them and one wash after wearing fall/winter. Love em and hope you’re enjoying yours.

@SKT Looks good dude! Especially the back of the knees. I’m almost at that point myself. I’m wearing them as much as possible at home as the temps start to hit 90+ outside.

[SKT]

@Danimal506 90’s I’m way too much of a delicate flower to keep these going in the heat. How much longer do you think you can keep at it?

[Mizmazzle]

I plan on bringing mine on our UK trip in June....that might be ludicrous...but I want to have them with me just in case.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle I bet you’ll be ok and of course these deserve a special trip

I’ll have to bear in mind the long drying time when I come to wash mine…

[Mizmazzle]

@Mister_Brue hahah...I've been waiting on those post pics too.

[SKT]

@Mister_Brue weeks!

Honestly the changes were so subtle I hesitated to post more

[Danimal506]

@SKT I only wear them inside the house, not outside hahah I can’t do heat either. Luckily we keep the AC blowing and so I can keep my fades going lol

They’ve gotten a little bit of Texas sun on days when I chanced it, but man I break a sweat walking from the car into the gas station.
