Cleaned up!

Got rid of the 4Runner guys, I’m now part of the GX470 gang!

I took off the basket already haha

Day 243!

Month 8 subs

Cult Classic Leather
Workhorse long wallet.

Fun fact: when I got this wallet it was custom and the first of its kind made. It’s now available on the site, but this wallet is the first of this model.

New York Bearded Gent Wallet Lanyard in Black.

$170 shipped in the U.S.

@FlavourFade yeah dude. It’s the repairs that look freaking sick to me, it’s also a 12oz shirt just like this one. With more washes down the line I know mine would brighten up, but I’m really looking forward to the future repairs honestly. I have my 25oz scraps ready for any future repairs on this shirt, 25oz sashiko repairs will be dope.

Ignore the text lol.

@tody I need to find the last 888 one lol. Nice score dude.

@FlavourFade I get ya dude! If I’m being honest, my favorite evo stage is when it’s beat and battered. I’ve never had a piece get to that stage, but every time I see the owner of SJ’s denim shirt he’s been hammering for 6 years, I damn near start drooling. I can’t wait til my piece gets like that.

@twin thanks brother!

@Twistlock looks great man! This is an awesome fit on you. Did you size up for extra thigh space or did you go TTS and happen to have slimmer thighs?

@worn2fade great work man, there’s just nothing better than a well faded denim shirt

Thanks my friend. I hear no lies! I want to continue wearing it for the foreseeable future. Assuming the 295-IB comes out in time, that should be my next shirt that I pair with my XHSib for IIY6. I should be using and abusing this 33 until then.

Yesterday wrapped up 365 days around the sun in this IHSH-33-IND. This is the first piece I’ve worn that I completed a full year in!

Im not a blue collar guy. I work behind a desk & spend a lot of time on my couch. That’s where 85% of my fades came from.. but with me knowing this, I made sure to do everything possible in this shirt.

I’ve been camping, canoeing, hammocking, offroading, fishing, walking & hiking in this shirt. I wore it every time I went to the beach, church, my in-laws, the stores. Every time I worked on my car & did yard work.

No matter the situation or weather, I had this shirt on. Everything from 30 degree days to 98 degree days. The cold didn’t stop me, the heat didn’t stop me & the rain didn’t stop me.

If you wear your denim, you will get fades. Guaranteed.

I was going to give it one last wash before wrapping this year up and posting but 1. I didn’t have the correct soap & 2. It’s honestly not due for a wash yet, so no need to rob indigo from my higher contrast fades.

Day 365 | 1 soak 4 wash

33 weeks!

Day 231.

I’m usually not fond of work shirts but dang you guys make this look amazing. Thank God it’s sold out everywhere lol.

@DrPat , thanks for the clarification.

I'm normally a tagged 34 in all 634 cuts, and the tagged 34 looks GREAT in this pair, but the waist is far too big by 1.5 inches

If the tagged size 34 had a true 34 waist, these would be damn near perfect.

I know other folks are going to love these though!

Yeah dude I noticed the waist on these is really big. I also thought the thighs would be much roomier, very similar thigh to my 888’s which is a bit disappointing. I was already taking a hit on these with the lower rise but factoring in the not-so-loose thighs and now I’m under the impression this cut just ain’t worth trying out.

@Gavin666 sorry to hear dude. Letting this go definitely sucked & I agree on the forearms too. After throwing back on my 33-Ind and wearing it solo, the difference is insane.

Just learned this today on Reddit

“Caveat emptor” - Latin for “let the buyer beware.”

Context it was used in: Someone giving someone else advice on something though they didn’t have the most experience in.

@WhiskeySandwich new to me

@worn2fade For sure and if you want inspiration @twin is the perfect candidate for that:

Twin also 409 if you want to see how that looks with xhsib.

Heck yeah, twin got that. I would like to hammer them at the same time for the same duration of time to see how they evolve together. I know twin has a pretty nice shirt rotation and I’m assuming that’s why his XHSib is dramatically ahead of his 295ib.

Since I’ve last updated this thread, there’s been a great amount of progress in terms of getting tools. The way things are looking I may start renting my garage the beginning of next month. Super stoked to dive into this.
