      @worn2fade sure will do . Yes initial soak and wash to remove all shrinkage.

        This time I'm doing the IGW-101B - Never seen a pair faded, interested to see how they turn out.

        @pmadison95 Nice choice, looking forward to following along. (Personally I love black denim, did the SBGs last Invitational)

        @PJ I found it really enjoyable last year, even if I know I will never win or place high, far too slow of a fader for that to happen. Still, that pair is by far my most faded pair and I was very happy with the way it came out. It's a fun little project.

            @jebrand you have an extra month on me with the UHR’s, I’d love to see how yours look right now.

              They are in desperate need of a wash but I will try and get some pictures later today. Good opportunity to start getting back in practice with my denim photos!

                I was torn between doing re(pair) with my UHR or going with the XHS but then the Piger X ii collab dropped and they just looked too good to pass on. I do feel guilty not going with iron heart this year but I do have the lefty jacket ready and waiting for the redline rally to start.

                      @worn2fade man, the 21oz is probably the most comfortable denim I own… stubborn though.

                        @Davids_denim yeah man when I had the 21oz 634 I fell in love with the comfort, the UHR’s never achieved anywhere near that level of comfort lol.

                        They were indeed stubborn though, and since you just came off UHR’s right before them you really feel it.

                          @JunkPants same here. Will never place high but like you will try to enjoy the ride.

                          @jebrand Probably going with 634 lefty . Could be fun to follow the progress of our lefty’s 🤙

                            @PJ it will be cool to compare progress. Lefty jeans definitely need more love!

                                  @Larkens @meatmarketdenim1 I don’t know how he was able to hold strong for 6 whole months. I would’ve folded like a pancake.

                                      @meatmarketdenim1 Bro I kid you not today was the first day I’ve spent really in this forum. Navigating, finding different topics, etc. This place is awesome man lol, I’ve never been in forums before so I’m a total newb when it comes to this but I enjoy being able to talk about literally anything on here. This thing is dope. I blame you and @Oaktavia for pitching it to me on multiple occasions lol, now I’m hooked.
