Thank y'all for the this discussion, it was insightful to read through everyone's perspectives. I think what I will do is stick to my plan and fade the feck outta one main pair and have a side pair that I wear once or twice a week. I'll get through them eventually.

I seek the fadiest of fades I can't stop that!!!

@Oaktavia When I think of forum legends of fades I think of you and twin, so happy to hear you'll do that. But also like you mentioned don't feel bad for changing it up a few days a week, it shouldn't feel like a full-time job to wear your denim haha

I can see the attraction of a ‘one good thing’ minimalist attitude, but can’t quite do it myself.

I work on the basis that if I’m using it, it stays if I’m not, it goes. And anything I buy has to have purpose and be of a certain quality. Not just clothes, it applies to everything - having an excess bugs me.

I’ve also sold quite a few pairs of shoes and clothes over the past couple of years. Shoes especially, I need a rotation that I wear regularly and are comfortable. Multiple pairs of redundant well made shoes just means none get broken in properly.

To add, that doesn’t mean I don’t own lots of something I’m enthusiastic about, but if I do, everything gets used. Records are a great example of that, they all get played and the ones that don’t go.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading through everyone's perspective!!! Made me think I may cut one fit from the group (more than likely the 777s). I still like a good rotation though!

Are there any DR x IH x FoxBrother flannels in the pipeline for 26’?

[Go For Chill]

This is exactly what I do. I have no idea how many wears, soaks, or washes are on any of my jeans. I don't know how many pair I have. I don't wait a certain number of days to wash them when new. I put on whatever makes me happy that day. Maybe I repeat them for the next day or week or month. Maybe I don't grab them again for a year. I do what brings me the most joy that day, and I don't delay wearing a pair just because I'm "trying" to wear another pair more.

Rotation…wake up and pick a pair, wear it for a day, maybe a week, maybe a month. Don’t track wears, don’t track washes…enjoy what I have for what it is. Really well made clothing.

You need to ask Division Road. These collabs are led by them, it is their gig.....

Is it true that IH drops used to be at 11am? I'm looking through some old threads and saw that was posted on an item... Not sure if that was just a one off or something, kind of reminds me of my days buying Supreme street wear 10 years ago, they changed to 4pm too a few years back.

edit: I mean UK timezones...

[AdamJ]

@Jord I can't remember it ever not being 4PM in the last 10 years or so!

[Jord]

@AdamJ Maybe I'm just seeing it in a different timezone, it was from a post on the 17oz duck untucked from 2023 or something, probably viewing it from an American timezone haha.

Thanks for the quick reply!

[goosehd]

@Jord EST eastern standard time for a release

[Jord]

@goosehd I realise that now haha, and I think that's a good time, gives the guys time to prepare the next day shipping orders etc, and it would be crazy having the drops at 6am EST for the Americans, or even worse West coast...

Thanks for the reply's guys

No idea what you are on about, it's always 5pm.

[Jord]

@Tago-Mago it's 5pm somewhere, right?

@Jord Germany leading the way again, because here it's kein Bier vor 4 (no beer before 4)
