I like the fade, personally, but the texture doesn't look too unique (in photographs)... almost as though someone could achieve that look using mass market brand techniques. I'm sure its much better in person.

Personally, I don't mind it. I think it's more tasteful than the crazy loops on the back of Flatheads and a lot of the Self-Edge stuff.

Here are my RRLs. They were bought new in november or december 2008 IIRC but they are an older model with the blue selvage line.

Just hot-soaked them a few wears ago. They have seen soaks/machine washes/soaking wet bike rides...I gave them a good deal of repairs around last thanksgiving (some shown in closeup)...reinforced the crotch wear, put some extra material in the pocket behind the holes that are forming, did some work on the cuffs...

I think I am going to get them hemmed as I am tired of the cuffs. Also, thinking about a new pair but I have to get the sizing right (these are really too big but I think the newer models run more TTS so I will have to figure it out)
