Looks nice, everything I've seen from white weft momo's tell me that they take a while fade, definitely a project denim.

I have white weft momos and they are taking forever to fade (I'm not biking or rock climbing in them mind you). It seems people from this contest had way more pronounced fades in a week than I did in months. I basically have 3 months effective wear and the crotch is the only thing with easily visible fading. The whiskers are very subtle. The color that comes through is well worth the wait.

Mine started developing some nice electric blue areas. They take a while though, but I would not in particular think these are hard/slow to fade.

I expect to receive mine in 2 weeks from BOW.

Cool I received a notification that my 0702 is waiting for me at the post office :) !
Well pick it up on my way back home after work.

Here is a quick fitpic (sorry for the poor quality photos). The 0702 is so dark it is hard to shoot it:

Regarding the contest I am not sure yet since I just bought 4 raw pants to fade.

Stop whining. Send me the funds and join the contest.

Today is the first time I wear my 702s in about two weeks.
