I must say that what you are doing with the perfectly hemmed jeans shots is brilliant, they look proper every time

Just picked these up. The measurements on this flavor of 634 is perfect for me due to the slightly roomier thigh. Can't wait to see how they will age with the indigo warp & black weft. Should be very cool. I wonder if anyone has a broken-in pair of 142ib denim yet as I'm curious what to expect. Although at the same time, it's somewhat nice not knowing and seeing the evolution as it comes.

The rate at which denim fades largely depends on the friction/abrasion the fabric is subjected too. Some jeans produce more contrast due to the colour etc, as you can see from Giles' pair these ones look pretty awesome once you beat them up.
I have a particular problem of late, reading companies advertise 'BUILT TO FADE' or 'DESIGNED TO FADE'
If you wear them, they will come

@gosha Adam is right… some denim may give up its indigo quicker than others. But it is the kind of lifestyle you lead while wearing them that really decides how quickly they fade and what patterns you get.
A denim that is allegedly designed to fade quickly won’t fade very quickly at all if you just sit on the sofa, while a denim that is somewhat stubborn (like the Iron Heart 21oz) will fade very quickly if you are climbing trees, working construction or skateboarding in them.
My advice would be to buy the denim you like the look and feel off and wear them a lot. The fades will take care if themselves, and will represent the life you live.
