The Flat Head

Perfect, congratulations. The vertical fading properties are so awesome on TFH, there was a year old 1001 posted to reddit that's gorgeous.

That's a great fit. I wish their straighter cuts had a longer inseam.

Great fit Ben! The 3005 is a great cut, and indeed, looks perfect on you!

[Sugar Mountain]

Very cool Ben. You've nailed the fit there!

mclaincausey - Those are my jeans!  Glad you like 'em.

[mclaincausey]

Very nice @Cold Summer . I didn't notice that was you.

[grandmasterben]

thanks guys, i'm really loving them! i already have another pair with pioneer denim so I know just how great they're going to be in a few months.

[grandmasterben]

Crazy how fast they evo.

[mclaincausey]

Soak and wash info @grandmasterben ? lovely jawnery

[grandmasterben]

Probably 4/5 hot washes since I got them… About a month ago. I don't think I could wash these enough for the denim to look bad since it's so spectacular. Crazy how long I had to wait to see any evo on my sugar canes!

[madmonday]

Maybe it's cause I'm on my phone in a dark smokey room . . . but I don't see anything except a lone electric blue spot.

PLACE MARKED (check when I get home)

why so many washes in such a short amount of time?

[superfuzz]

Yeah Ben what are you doing to your jeans that they need that many washings?

[grandmasterben]

There's def not a whole lot goin on, but you can just tell these are giving up the goods. Funny how blue my hands are sometimes…

I always get random stuff on my jeans that looks kinda jank (probably because I use them as a napkin...) and I just love how these look when they're washed really frequently. I think it speeds up the evo too. So they go in the wash!

Had them for a month and 4 washes. I'd say he's washing them like a 'normal' person would. TFH denim, from what I've seen behaves best when given frequent washes. He's following the Japanese wash regime I'd say

[grandmasterben]

Agreed snowy… Another thing I really like is I think it's the best way to train tracks. Considering how dark these are still you know it's gonna be good!

[mclaincausey]

I would wash more, but I don't stink easily and my jeans stay pretty clean, and I find washing jeans to be a hassle.

I really enjoy the signature chatter that TFH denims have. It's very distinctive and beautiful.

[madmonday]

I thought he got them a month ago. . . So a wash every week is "normal" ??

Okay I guess.

Different strokes 4 different folks.

[grandmasterben]

I did, been wearing them every day since! Also, here in California we don't have winter and I do a decent amount of walking. If I lived somewhere cooler I definitely wouldn't need to wash them as much…

[Snowy]

Paging one @Cold Summer . Question when you get a moment. As recently returned from over in Japan, and knowing where you worked, can you shed any light around how often peoples over there washed their jeans? I seem to recall you've mentioned it before, but couldn't dig it up. Thanks.

[Snowy]

MM, I'm sure CS mentioned it being weekly or fortnightly washes or something crazy frequent by our standards….
