      @Jcaz6996 I'm sure that you are going to win this time with that kind of a fading even before the half way mark. I can only imagine that these are going to be incredible towards the finish line.

      Cheers mate time will only tell 👍 I’m guessing top 50 again the whole public voting thing is where it gets tricky like I’ve mentioned before malaysia & Thailand denim community’s are big and they definitely all vote for each other..
      Anyway not too bothered just looking forward to how these evolve in the next 7 month 😄

        @Daniel San love that shot with your denim in the washing machine. Your 18oz is looking real good 👌🏾

        @Jcaz6996 geez Louise! 5mos in & already looking like you’ve had years with that pair. Cheering you on for the top spot my friend!

        @the246guy as long as the weather permits keep going dude. You’re on the way to some great fades!

        Cheers @RoxRocks86  appreciate it 🙌
        Your pair is looking crazy good too great shot 📸
        I still need to invest in a good camera.

          I think you should bring another pair in rotation, otherwise you end up with a complete to white faded pair
          😃
          great job

            30 degrees day after day sucks and makes wearing the XHS unpleasant. Hope everyone else is coping up. I have totally lost wearing my XHSiB over the last few weeks.

            IH-555N | IH-666S-21 | IH-777D | IH-666 XHS | IHG-035 | IHB-06 | IH-721-KHA
            IHSH-251 | IHSH-07 | IHSH-246 * 2

              glad I chose the 18oz. It’s not a perfect summer denim but I managed to wear em almost all of the
              hot summer days. think I only missed 2 or 3 days were it was 34-36 degrees.
              had to wash it one time more than planned because of all that sweat 🥵
              but I think it’s getting faster after the second wash , starts to look great 👍

                      Impressed by all these fades. I entered the Invitational this year and I’m ready to give up on my pair. Picked the wrong denim.

                        @GardenState what pair did you enter with? I’m feeling the same about dropping out…more so intentionally just to wear other denim tho 😂

                          With very little experience with Pure Blue Japan I picked the PBJ indigo x black 013. Which is I believe 18oz denim. I find the cut to be too slim. Although the denim feels substantial it is not like the pairs I have waiting to be worn. My biggest gripe is I don’t think I like the indigo x black combination. It feels too business casual and not traditional enough if that makes sense. I think I’d prefer my indigo denim to be separate from black denim moving forward. And really I would just like to wear other things and have slowly started to.

                          Right now I have a pair of xhs which is calling my name and I would really like to find a good black denim. Sorry for the rant  😃

                            Don’t drop out even if you’re not wearing your pair as much just keep submitting monthly pictures you may feel different about them in a couple of weeks . Wear them when you can and by the end your have one amazing pair .

                            I’m currently only wearing mine in work now, switching up to 555s-19L after work.

                              I managed to hang in there last month and basically posted pics with no progress so I will probably stick it out. I truly salute the people that can go a solid year without cheating with other pairs. I don’t if I’m getting old or I have ADD but so many other pairs (a few) are calling my name.

                              Need to find a solid pair of black denim too.

                                      have seen the pics James ! congrats  😉
                                      the XHS are great ! they need more wears of course to get comfy. 
                                      are you entering the Redline rally ? will take part with 292-ind , if they´ll be restocked since then. second choice would be a 526 lefty

                                        Considering it mate… also was thinking a 526-L would be sick I would wear that every day in work .
                                        Think you can enter 2 items but only submit 1 at the end..
                                        If a SBG-CPO was released I would enter with that too ..

                                            Not fused on the slubby to be honest mate like the well worn high contrast look.
                                            How’s the Big Buck ? looks so sick ..
