[mpukas]

I know - I've seen what you've done to other jeans in the past, LOL

[mikebarhoot]

after seeing the other entries and the phenomenal wear and fades I should just bow out graciously. tho i do have 4 months.  :o

IHxVS777S21
just finished 6th bucket/woolite dark soak.

This is my early May update.  I'll get some action shots soon for June.

5th soak, right after i broke a bottle of cologne over them.  At least they won't smell bad for a bit  ::)

A nice pair
(Pink Floyd reference)

Post wash. The contrast is completely insane.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Wow I  was wondering what they were going to look like after a wash. Amazing!

[miscstuf]

@cander49 amazing evo!

[Vagrant]

@mikebarhoot Thanks buddy.  And a Pink Floyd reference always appreciated.

@cander49 Those look out of this world.  Just wow.

[Fadez]

Some serious evo here! Well done

Long out of contention, but still getting worn. Just back from minor repairs/reinforcement at @Mildblend Supply Co. Great work!

[neph93]

In contention or not, that is a lovely pair of jeans. They look well used and well worn. These are proof that high contrast fades aren’t the only way to make a pair look great.

Thanks for the encouragement. In these for the long haul.

June Update. Forgot my SD card on my desk. So cell phone has to do. These are fresh out of the wash. I can’t believe they’ve gone this far.

Day 300 for my IHxVS777S-21. With IHSH-197-LIN and IHSN-01 in black.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

@summ3rhays @Fadez @neversummer great updates guys. Are you looking forward to the end of the contest and moving on to the next pair? Or do you plan on wearing them for a long time afterwards?

Another few weeks or so in my 888-NT's

Hey Mike. Definitely looking to start working on my PIHDCTs and 777S-21 after the DWC

[neversummer]

@Filthy Thanks and good question. I too plan to focus attention elsewhere. The main issue for me (and why they haven’t gotten a lot more wear) is that this particular pair of 777 is a bit tight in certain regions. Not the most comfortable, probably not the best decision for a two year contest. I just didn’t have any other options at the moment, and was not able to afford anything else. I’d still wear them of course, really like the denim, but if I’m doing anything slightly athletic, I choose a different pair.

That's cool. I am kind of eager to see if there will be another HWDC and what they have in store or if this will be the last one. @neversummer seems like 888 cut would suit you better then. I kind of wish they would do some double rope dyed indigo 21 oz. denim for the next contest. If I was rich I would buy a roll of that and pay for a whole run of jeans to get made. (And give them to anyone that I have had any meaningful interaction with since I have been a member).
