The Worst of Raw Denim

@Clint_D:

Sweet baby Jesus, how could anyone think this was a good idea:

@Megatron1505:

My favourite comment, this is an idea I would support 

If OP is willing, I think this should be made into a pair of traveling pants. He sends it to another member of the community to do whatever mind-numbingly ridiculous "fade" technique they can think of, document the process with photos and/or video, then they pass it on. After 6 months of utter insanity, they get submitted to Heddels for Fade Friday. After that, the Smithsonian. Or maybe Ripleys. Who's with me?!

OP, I'm in too deep on this idea. Not even joking, I will gladly buy those from you to make this a reality if that's what it takes.

Honest to god, I read that and thought, "oh, that is such a great idea. I wonder if we could do it on the IH forum?"

@Chris , it would provide answers to so many questions  ???

I’m going to do a dual starch crusting and ocean washing.

^ Ugh… I know some folks like LVC but when the main company does crap like that, I wouldn’t buy LVC on principle.

It’s a satire piece from the Onion, Reuben. [emoji38]

Ha. Guilty of looking at the pic and not the text. What a plonker I am [emoji23]

[UnTucked]

In all fairness, it's a satire site…

But let's be honest... Levi's doesn't need help when it comes to creating strange/ugly jeans

[neph93]

Didn’t even check the link, just saw the pic. Lazy.

In my defence I’m focusing most of my attention on these bad boys at the minute. Everything else is peripheral.

[sabergirl]

Niiiiiice. Can’t blame you there. Also, there’s so many jeans out there with terrible stencils, it could totally have been real.

Great combo (eejit)…

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Great shoes @neph93

[BloodnThunder]

LVC has done much, much worse than even the Onion can devise.  Great boots btw.

Guy def is not a 42x32 anyway….

Nice boots @neph93, give us the deets!  Custom Wesco's?  Or did you post this somewhere else already?

[neph93]

@manufc10 @Seul @sabergirl @BloodnThunder @Filthy Thanks guys. I was just trying to draw attention away from the fact that I am indeed an eejit.

Today was a double Wesco delivery day thanks the The Bootery and IHUK crew but was too busy for me to get pics up. More to come on the appropriate threads after the weekend.

[BloodnThunder]

Double Wesco!  And I thought my one pair of boots being delivered today was exciting.

Not to carry on rotting the thread, but yes. It’s as embarrassing as it is exciting. I’m now covered for pull-on boots for the rest of my life.
