That is not too surprising actually. How far along are yours? I'm rolling in on 70 wears.

I lost count a while ago haha I bought them a little over 18 months ago. You're a savage with the fades tho man, I don't do a whole lot in em besides chill, walk the dog or shovel snow....way to heavy for me to wear from late spring to early fall.
There's gotta be at least 70 days if not more but like I said....
-
As soon as i got home it was overcast.. best i can do until the sun comes back out @Oaktavia
As you know it's hard to capture the fades on these guys unless it'smad sunny out...even then there won't be much to see on my pair anyways.

@Oaktavia hell yeah brother!!

I just got back from a river walk with my wife and goldens and did a smell check inside the MBs. Today, they definitely, without a doubt, failed the smell test. Phew...musty...if you put your nose close enough to the screen, you might catch a whiff. They are currently soaking in a tub with some Dr. Bronners soap. The water turned brown quickly...I'll post after photos soon. 73 days was how long I made it this time, the pair I faded last fall (21ib) made it to 61 wears. I'll see how well this soapy soak works and try to make it to 100 wears before a machine wash.

XHS in the summer 🥵 You are the definition of iron to the bone! What’s the temp been like in your neck of the woods?

It's not quite summer in my neck of the woods. Temps range from lower 70s and rainy to mid to upper 80s with sun. Moving to the shady countryside from Frederick plus having central air makes it easier than last couple years to wear XHS. Soon I will hang them up till August and switch to 14oz jorts and easy shorts, with 815 when I can.

Oh nice! Those temps are great, nothing crazy. Sounds & looks like an awesome place to live!

@Oaktavia hell yeah brother! They start to come alive! Only wizards can tame the wild wild Mad Black
