The Evolution of Iron Heart

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle Yeah, I think two pairs only are able to be pulled off. That's so funny to hear they would point out their fades to you too hahaha...

I'm going for a full year with my XHS, trying to get up to 250 days or so in that year, which ends around Halloween. As much as I wanted to start wearing my new pair of XHSib to start off the school year, I want to get that full Halloween to Halloween. My XHS are just now starting to really show off nicer combs and 50 or so more days would be great. Plus, I have another thing to look forward to on or around All Hallows!

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia sounds like a solid plan indeed!!

I’m hoping to push each of my pairs into the mid 400s of wears by the end of the school year…get some real deep whites poppin!

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle dude hell yeah, that's uncharted territory for me. Pushing to the 400s is way cooler than buying new jeans.

I wanna see what my 21ib will look like at 400 wears. i can totally see them getting to the level of James's xhsib. They're beginning to work themselves back into my rotation since it's been cooling off. His pair is magnificent

[Mizmazzle]

Yeah…450 wears on both my XHS and XHSbb are my life goals this school year….

Unless Santa brings me those UHRs I’ve been wanting to get into. Would probably shelf them though until next year if the fat man delivers.

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich magnificent indeed my dude

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle put 'em on ice

Never fully appreciate how much my jeans change with time until I compare them to a crispy new pair...

@T4920 I always enjoy comparison pics like this. You’re building a great collection too

[Oaktavia]

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 very nice, Tom. If ya had to pick a favorite, which one would you choose?

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle purely based on the denim itself... 18oz Vintage!

Perfect weight for year round wear, subtle slub without looking like a novelty, and beautiful texture that is so satisfying to stroke

Favourite based on cut is the overdyed 18s, 633 is a Self Edge exclusive though, which will be difficult for me to get here in the UK...

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 that 18oz vintage seems to have some devotees! I’ve been thinking about trying the UHR as my next denim. XHS is just so good it’s hard to deviate from.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle I’ve got both UHR and 18’s and I’d go with 18 just for the versatility that Tom mentioned. Then add some UHR’s down the road cause you know you “need” those too

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT such sound advise. It’s time for you to get your legs in some XHS and me to try out this vintage denim!

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle you’re absolutely right. XHS is next!
