You are not alone my dude. I keep track with newer items on my work calendar. I write the abbreviation and wear number on the day square. I usually stop keeping track when honeycombs show up around 130-150 wears.

Wash 2 Feb '23

I have said this a few times on here: Most folks don't like and try to avoid marbling on denim, but with pieces like this, I think a little marbling makes it look awesome. A little bit combined with some nice crease fades looks vintage/contrasty at the same time. I dig it man...anyone else feel this way? Or is marbling a no go for y'all?

[Daniel San]

I like it too, more on the SBG than on indigo though

[sabergirl]

I don’t mind marbling at all! The thing I don’t like is outright creases that get baked in because I can’t be bothered to take things out before the spin cycle. I’m the world’s laziest when it comes to laundering. I did finally learn to soak things through before I let the machine do it’s thing—so that’s an improvement.

The sample looks great @AdamJ . Makes me think I need to give mine a wash, finally.

Yes I agree with this- those creases are not so nice. Glad other folks don't mind some marbling.

I agree with this also, looks better with black denim. Might give my 295bb another wash this weekend.

I'm a fan of the marble too

[AdamJ]

I did not intentionally get those big creases in at the start, but in my haste I neglected to soak pre-wash. But with SBG denim, I think marbling is par for the course

[AdamJ]

[Jcaz6996]

It’s looking lovely mate

[AdamJ]

@Jcaz6996 thanks man

[AdamJ]

Probably shouldn't have washed it, when the production run lands I might get another and do it the hard way

[Oaktavia]

I think it looks fantastic @AdamJ do you not like the washed look I take it? The "hard way" meaning you want to just wear it and fade without washing?

[Nik]

Home OD fix?

[AdamJ]

@Oaktavia No I love it, it's over taken my lefty OD type III in the rotation too. I just think in retrospect, the creases in the arms might have popped a bit more if I hadn't softened it up

[Oaktavia]

@AdamJ gotcha gotcha well its only going to increase in radness but we already know that!

[CRC111]

Amazing jacket made out of an amazing material - I was considering the non-fade version, but seeing the potential is this jacket is giving me second thoughts.

@AdamJ amazing evo there! Looks like 2023 is gonna be a SBG year

[chrisjohnnick]

this might be the year I start buying black denim again. 8-10 years ago all I wore was black and various shades of grey on stages around the world. Might also start getting into some different cuts.
