14 months, two soaks, no washes.
I purchased these during a trip to London in March 2019 and wore them regularly—but mostly indoors—for almost a year. The fit broke in nicely but they hold onto their indigo and are pretty resistant to wear. A couple months ago I stopped taking such good care of them and started wearing them during a landscaping project, and they are starting to come along. You really have to lean on these jeans to get them to show anything at all.
I can’t believe that with all the crouching, climbing, and kneeling in the dirt they still look so new in the photo. Dirt pretty much brushes off them when they dry so it’s been easy to hold off on washing.
