    @indigo_nico

    in a previous like i was a bike messenger in chicago, “indigo” was my radio handle. seems oddly fitting here now. that life gave way to a professional cycling career eventually where i raced all over the world with a red bull helmet on. these days i still race, but less competitively and work in marketing for a cycling component company. in between race seasons i toured extensively playing guitar in a rock and roll band, and on occasion still make noise in front of an audience. i have great admiration for makers of quality things, which is how i wound up here.

      Big rockabilly vibes today with IHJ-86-BLK and IH-666S-UHR. Fall has hit Chicago and I’m so stoked to bust this jacket back out!

      Fresh pair of 555 XHS and IHG-081-ORA. Posted in the 555 XHS thread for fit advice but after a wearing around the house for a spell I think these are perfect.

    • RE: IHJ-86-BLK - 14oz Selvedge Denim Modified Type III Jacket - Black/Black

      20 days in on mine! It’s basically a shirt at this point. I’m so happy that it is finally getting warm in the Midwest, but I’m not trying to rush the heat so I can get as much wear as possible! 60 days on 555 XHS and an unknown amount of wear on my beloved orange beanie.

    • RE: IH-634S-UHR - 21/23oz Raw Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

      364 days since the initial soak/machine wash. Roughly 300 wears? Lost count once it got hot out, but that’s a safe estimate. Denim is probably slightly damp in these pics from yesterday’s soak/machine wash. Thought the wash would take more indigo out of the denim tbh, but I don’t care… I love these so much. Stoked the temps are cooling off in Chicago and I can get back to daily wear.

      @Davids_denim these look killer! Did you start the monthly washes after the first month or let them go for a bit before wash number one? I’m about 50 wears in on mine and the combs and whiskers are starting to show up…

    • RE: Indigo Invitational Y5

      @worn2fade if the 684 drop in a 16oz slub before April, I might jump in. The 666S UHR I’ve been sitting on for Y6 got their first wear yesterday after learning Y6 doesn’t start in Sept like I thought it would.
