@Oaktavia dude I love this, had something similar way back when. My laziness got the best of me though so I neglected it.. you may have lit a fire in me though..

@Oaktavia thanks for sharing this, I haven’t been tracking my first pair but I might make a guesstimate and start using this.
Nothing wrong with being nerdy about it!

[Oaktavia]

@J-IV right on dude, hope you end up using it.

So, I have a new jacket.

Double Helix Indigo Dyed Horsehide.

@endo was selling it in Hamburg, I tried it on and loved it. A few hours later I told him I wanted to buy it. He said, too late, already sold.

Thank you @Madame-Buttonfly and @AdamC for the assist

Happy birthday @Giles ! Hope you have a great day and its not TOO hot so you can get some miles in the new jacket!

@Giles Happy Birthday, and what a bloody lovely jacket this is. Hope it matches the colours on the boat!

I had wondered who got the jacket – congratulations @Giles and happy birthday!

[dinobarnesberlin]

[endo]

Happy Birthday Giles! @endo always made the jacket look great when it popped up on WAYWT. I love it when a quality thing gets another life with a new owner.

Yes. But, won't happen......

Happy birthday I'm sure the jacket suits

After eyeing @Nik rocking his bleached out OD 21oz, I wanted to go my pair a go. It took three soaks in the bathtub with bleach. I am quite pleased with the results. There are a few wet spots in the photos that will lighten up when dry. I wanted a super light blue hue jeans and love how they turned out. I was so eager and excited to try this process that I totally forgot to take before photos .
