Got in my first pair of new engineer boots. I really like them so far the are Renav Goods Dark Brown Oiled Shinki horsehide. They are 10 inch tall and have a dr soles half sole.in a olive color.

Congratulations to all those who competed. I am glad with how mine faded. 634S-21ib

@KA56 I didn't realize that the 888 was intended to be worn with a slouch. I have a pair in UHR and I like how roomy they are but didn't like those weird vertical lines. I just tried wearing them on the hips instead of pulled all the way up and that fixed it. Thank you for explaining this.

I have limited experience I really liked the 21oz ib I recently faded for the Indigo Invitational if you can find a pair. I do have a pair of the UHR that I really like but I haven't put in as much wear. They would be great if you want to try the whole shrink to fit experience but with a heavy weight fabric. I do want to try XHS/XHSIB/XHSBB and the 19oz LHT at some point.

@Hefner Thanks! I like the quilt lined sleeves they make it easier to get the jacket on when already wearing a long sleeved shirt. The quilting has some insulation but they don't feel quite as warm as the body does. How do u like the mariner? I was considering one and the ih n1 but ended up going with the RJ-2.

Also the Shinigami is a nice fabric I have a pair that I might use for the II Y5. I will be cool to see how those Elephants fade.

@mikebarhoot Here are some pics of the Mij10 s with 9 months of wear from before the last competition. I will get some at.the end of this month too. Yeah I agree that a pair of black denim will be harder to fade. However,I have never faded a black pair out and I want the challenge.

I am wearing a pair of weird guy MIJ10 as my bridge pair. They already have 9.5 months of wear. I am thinking about wearing a black pair for year 5 like the Shinigami or MIJ13. I have also heard rumblings a 32oz black maybe on the horizon they have some deadstock fabric still. Also on the look out for IH-XHSBB as a potential pair as well

Threw together a mixed drink 1oz rye 1oz simple syrup top with ginger ale ice optional. Also for the simple syrup I used this ginger ale mixer I got for the holidays but I think a regular simple syrup would work fine. Side note: this was the drink I made post going out to the bar so it might need some more doctoring to make it drinkable if you know what I mean.

yeah i think i am going to get some pics of mine next week right at the last minute i might give them one more wash too i am not sure yet i washed them in december once already.

@Davids_denim I hear ya i have the same problem. I have a stockpile but I am going to go back to my last bridge pair (N&F MIJ10) after the competition. I have several picked out to wear for y5. I think I am going to go with a pair of black denim I haven't faded out a pair of black denim before.
