      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!

                          Nice choice!... Essentially wearing the same pair but I have the old version. 555-03. Initially signed up for the re-pair but ended up wearing them during the break. These have been patiently waiting in my closet haha

                            @weftyarn I know it’s very early but I’m surprised at how little signs of fading my sbg is showing. Usually the key spots, like under the belt etc, show something, but these are just getting ever so slightly shiny. I recall AJ saying they take a while to get started, then let loose. I’m looking forward to it!

                              @Denimhead-0 those fit you far better than my pair does. Smallest top block ever! The denim is awesome though, super tuf

                                @WhiskeySandwich Yup im experiencing exactly the same. But coming from the regular 21Oz i know how to deal with such “late developers” haha 😅

                                  Combs are coming along ok, and some first small signs of fading at the back pockets.
                                  The lighting makes it appear a bit more prominent than in real life I'd say.

                                  Haven't missed a day so far. Great jeans.

                                        @Denimhead-0 Are those the "gauntlet" denim? The ones i had were super tight and tough, very rigid and pretty uncomfortable, especially the top block on the slim straight. I really do like the fabric though, if its the same as what I have. They broke in pretty nice though. good jeans for hard work.

                                          these are the 22oz Sumo, slim straight, a little larger in the top block then I expected. I typically wear 35’s in the waist, these are 36 so a little loose.
