      I'm a bit confused…

      Did you use sandpaper on those?

          Not one piece of sand paper touch them at all…And I will swear on my mother.  U guys already know some of the things I did do which I admitted were semi cheating.  Like going down a slide maybe 50 times knowing it would help em fade behind the knee and my ass.  I did alll that and more...Now on my 301's those i am just letting them ride

              Damn. I need to stay far away from those sandpaper lined slides haha.

              You can obviously do whatever you want to your jeans, but faked/cheated evo just seems a bit weird in this thread.

              It seems like it takes people forever to get fades like that. It's just a bit misleading to say 50 times down a smooth slide would get fades like that. I'm not trying to hate on you, but just don't want any forum members to think they will get "sic fadez" that quickly or easily without lots of self-distressing.

                No offence, but i think it looks bad. Especially the fades at the stacks… Imo, there is too much contrast going on, to a point it looks "cheap"...

                    Well, they're his jeans and he decided to try something out. It's no secret Sal's an eccentric dude, so I'll give him credit for just being true to himself. (You better have been wearing your Ed Hardy cap while riding that slide all day.)

                      backed…and i almost dare to say, that you´ve ruined this pair pretty badly buddy...
                      fades come with wear and most of all they need time to evolve…so if you can´t wait and want a "great" looking pair as quick as possible -> pass on raw denim!...

                      starting rant


                      shit looks ridicoulos imo and that "dirt" looks like it´s painted on as well... 😠

                      sry, but this is really fucked up and imo, you really really really did something wrong...especially when saying "no sandpaper!"...shit looks sanded all over the fucking place!... 😠


                      ending rant

                            Um, ok.

                            That is, bar none, the most exaggerated fading I've ever seen on this forum.

                            They certainly have progressed more quickly and with more pronounced contrast than I would expect, but if DD says that it's all natural, then I won't call him a liar.  Besides, if he's happy with them, then that's all that matters…

                                come on mate…you and me both know that this isn't the case with this pair!...I think we're playing the raw denim game just long enough (or even longer) to actually know that this can never ever happen to a pair of jeans - talking about IronHeart - in that "short" time...actually such fades will never happen...those stack fades are just ridiculous. while the rest of the denim around'em is looking totally new...common Chris, u know better than this 😉

                                  If Sal says that no sandpaper was used, I would like hear what was done to get that effect.

                                      Man what went on while i was sleeping?  U guys wanna come burn my house down for jeans….Christ relax.  and who cares what I do i admit i fekked them up a bit by doing some of the exaggerated things i did (READ MY RAW DENIM POST) http://www.rawrdenim.com/2011/08/customizing-cheating-your-raw-denim/ and some of my earlier post on here.  I told u guys what i did to get my fades.  U guys seriously surprised me.  I knew it would get people who dont like me to come out of the wood works and say something all of a sudden to me.  I mean whatever.  I will see u guys in OCT i guess.  U guys are grown men acting like we are in 4th grade and i got the koodies ( sal got the koodies sal got the koodies)  Its a shame cause i liked it in here but now obviously i know some of u hate on me because why… i post a lot.  If u guys like G and P so much u wouldnt do such things to their customers.  A weak person would totally STOP buying IH because u guys tried to embarrass him so badly.  If u guys wanna be such great lil IH troopers than maybe instead of burning houses down u should say HEY u shouldnt do that.  But no I wont use names but certain people need to know I am a man and men act like men not WOMAN.  I will use my favorite saying.  GET OFF UR WHITE HIGH HORSE CAUSE WE ALL CAN SEE UP UR DRESS....MAN

                                        Sal, chill man. You've had some ribbing, but what did you really expect? I don't think anyone has hated on you personally, just what you have done to your jeans. The people here love their IH gear, love the brand and all the people involved with brand, and feel very strongly about it and all the great products, so no doubt some folks will see what you have done as blasphemy.

                                        It's not my thing to be honest Sal, I just think it looks staged, but I don't dislike you personally because of it, and I doubt anyone here does either. If you like it, great, if you don't, you won't do it again.

                                        Context dude, they're just jeans, it's just a bit of ribbing, and this is only the internet. You have far more important shit going on right now than the state of your pants.

                                        Peace
