Meanwhile I have 840 days down. While the front is holding up incredibly well, the backside is getting weaker in some areas.
Might have them repaired very soon to continue the wear journey.

Wearing them daily lately. While summer was quite sweaty, I almost forgot that they are ridiculously comfortably as soon as the temps drop down. Especially considering the slimish fit and the 25oz….

Maybe my favorite IH Jeans yet. Wearing only 1-2 a week due to other priorities in the rotation. But getting there.

Gave them their 4th wash after 431 days of wear. Somehow this time I ended up with marbling although I didn‘t change the washing routine too much. Maybe I used lower spins earlier Don‘t care too much to be frank as I think they will get less prominent with future wear and washes.

Can‘t remember that I have ever enjoyed a jacket so much. Fit might be a bit loser than the classic slim fit style for Type 3’s. But I wanted to fit even the thickest sweater I own (of course IH) underneath.
Bit more than 2 months in. Some slight evo ongoing but all in all still kind of new. No break in required at all.

I completed 500 days of wear recently. I also added a comparison shot to my SEXIH22-301s which I wore for 1000 days to see where I need to get.
The 25oz indigo-indigo is more challenging to fade, but the fabric also seems to be almost indestructable. So I expect further great fades but late destructions in the coming 500 days.


Decided to give them another 40 degree Celsius wash after 518 days. Not a big change but the colors and contrast seem to be a bit more flashy now

Gave them their 5th machine wash and few repairs lately. Almost 600 days down. I am sure they will easily last for 1000 days.

I just love this denim. „Only“ 474 days of wear and I plan to wear it till 1k

For the ones getting the SBG Type3: I can‘t wait to see heaviest faded ones in the future.

@Asger-Ebdrup This looks great and seems to behave very similar to mine. Fading very slowly but when it happens, the fades look great🩵
Here is mine. I‘ll try to wear it all winter.

@sabergirl @peregrine @Daniel-San @Oaktavia @twin @Fadez thank you so much for the kudos. Not done with them yet. They will remain my go-to pair until 1000 days

Little update. Definitely a very slow fader, but we are getting there. Promise!

Had a few stitches done on mine to prolong their life.

@JunkPants Thank you man! And I am sure you will. These are really super easy to fade. Just be careful with high spin washing if you are cautious about marbling or wash marks.

Finally some signs of wear. At least in the right lightning. This jacket seems underrated and I am curious to see how it is finally looking heavily faded.

Don‘t wear it so often anymore these days. But maybe during summer I’ll chose it again. Had the sleeves taken in by a tailor as they were completely frayed out.
Guess that‘s not for everyone
