Decisions
-
Hi, what to do. I have three pair of new 634’s in different weights. I also have a few pair that are beautifully broken and with awesome fades. It is so hard to decide what to put on in the morning. On one hand, I want to wear what I spent so much time working on and on the other hand I feel like I should break in the new denim. Perhaps I am working on too many at the same time? What do y’all do?

You’re gonna get a lot of answers here but speaking for myself, I’m pretty much a rotator. I get tired of wearing the same pair every day. Now having said that, I’ve been working on a pair of UHR’s for a few months and wearing them 5-6 days a week so go figure. Weather decides for me too.

7 days a week different moods so i just put on what i want and that results that i’m already 2 weeks in my XHSbb and Wabash work shirt for 2 weeks in a row i even wear the wabby in bed!

I like to start with a new/unfaded "main" pair at end of each summer with a "side" pair to wear as well. Main pair is 4/5 days a week and side pair is 2/3 days a week. The main pair gets pretty faded within about 6 months while the side pair still yields some results.
I try to have my main pair nearly new and my side pair already started with some fades. So I can wear my main pair as my side pair the next year if it all works out. Within a few more years, I want to be able to have five pairs that are faded to my liking and stick with a rotation of those.

Thanks very much guys!! All those strategies make perfect sense. @Oaktavia I like your rationale. I will look at that other link now

@fourperf Another option is instead of using a side pair, to still wear a main pair but rotate your other jeans on the off days you don't wear the main pair. You will not see as much results on the jeans that you rotate aside from your main pair, but you still get to wear all of the expensive jeans you paid for.

@Heavy_blue accelerated in bed. Good plan

@Oaktavia I like that. I wore one pair every day for about 18 months. I am so attached to them and now have the three new ones. It’s trippy putting the older pair aside as I am so attached to them bit

@fourperf it’s the Filthy way! The man had some wise techniques.
