          @Fades-for-future I will def be paying extra attention to SBGs since I’ll be making unofficial comparisons to my own since starting a week early. 🤘

            @Brian I wanna say Australia? I'm from Oz originally, but I haven't lived there for 15 years. Usually, Christmas is one of the hottest days, which totally screws with peoples' heads when you tell them. I could not imagine wearing anything more than 14.5 ounces year-round in Oz. Power to you mate!

            Bibs and SBG are going to be fun to watch, something different!

              Fit pics of my 18oz y4 pair. Got them altered by indigo proof right before the comp.

                    Hi I’ve been wearing these to work got the first bit of fading on the seams.

                    IMG_2912.jpeg

                    These are comfortable and have not suffered from broken fingers or thumbs because of the zip fly but the buttons on the chest line up exactly where my nipples are which are now armour piercing.
                    Also got some new Red Wing steel toe capped Pecos for work. Happy fading everyone.

                      You must have done everything right to have a job where you can wear Bibs all day 😃

                      Use it or lose it.

                        My IH rotation has gotten pretty deep—time to actually fade something. My first time competing.

                          Is there a link to the general information about Indigo Invitational and Redline Rally?

                          What’s the difference between the two?

                          Is it as simple as, wear one item for 365 days straight? How do people do that with jackets and heavy denim in the summer?!

                              Just wear as much as you can ..
                              Pick a oz denim that is suited to you and where you live .

                              I’m in the Uk so can get away with wearing heavy denim jeans and jackets.

                                II runs Jan to December; RR runs, I think, July to June (correct me if I'm wrong) but basically staggered. The denim weight is up to what you think you can handle for 366 (leap year this year). I chose 14.5oz for II since during summer, I could not wear +19oz. You can still enter up until the 15th of this month FYI

                                  Oh okay cool, thanks for the info! Looks like it’s as straight forward as it sounded.

                                  Living in Texas, there is no friggin way I’m wearing denim all summer long!
