@Nskelton:

@Filthy liking those photos, I'll be using a tag 36 in the 555 for indigo invitational.

Interesting, has anyone ever done black jeans for the Indigo Invitational before?

lol yes there were a few guys with black jeans the second go around…Bazhad from N&F wore a pair of black selvedge.

Zing!

The waist is a little loose pre soak, so I think these will do just fine for me. They are in the bathtub in hot water currently. Can't wait to start this process.

Prepare for an inky tub

…@Oaktavia if you had to choose, better loose than too tight. Iron Heart belts are pretty cool!

[Jett129]

The B. Weiss belt that you got will look/go great with those. @Oaktavia

[Oaktavia]

@Paul9221 So inky! I dripped black dyed water all over the fecking bathroom…but it cleaned up quite easily.

@vaquero357 definitely agree with you on that one. I actually kind of prefer a little loose.

@Jett129 I was just thinking that! Brandon was initially suggesting wearing the indigo dyed belt with black denim.

Lol my (soon to be) father in law just commented on the stiffness of the jeans after I put them on. He said "so…what you're saying is...if you passed out standing up, your jeans wouldn't let you fall over?!" 

[Oaktavia]

I got tequila'd last night and got acrylic paint on my XHSbb…not totally disappointed...but kind of face palmed when I saw them this morning.

Oh God

[Oaktavia]

Trying to accept my fate…

They look great like that

[Oaktavia]

Well thanks man!

@Oaktavia:

Well thanks man!

Agreed. You are an artist/art teacher after all. Wear the f out of them now…. You’ll love them down the line.

[Oaktavia]

This is quite true…thanks for the encouragement. I do intend to wear the f outta them...already seeing some grey areas on the back pockets, crotch, inside waist band and even some whiskers are turning charcoal grey.

I suppose charcoal grey is the equivalent of electric blues with indigo denim...? Unless there is a different term y'all use that I'm unfamiliar with.

@Oaktavia:

I suppose it is. We could work out something more pretentious though, I'm sure 

[Jett129]

How about Smokey Blacks?

[Joberwocky]

My vote's for "radiant alabaster"

[neph93]

Chalky snail trails… ? 

[Joberwocky]

I don't know if anyone's goal should be "sick chalky snail trails"
