again, tnx! appreciate the positive comments on the FCs. i wish i can take full credit on its evo, but it's [really] all about the denim. the only thing i did diffrently was that , instead of going with the SuFu flow [ei, going for high frequency washes for a more vintage fade], i held onto the indigo dye. i figured, i'd enjoy the high contrast fadez on the 1st stage, then when blase, increase wash frequency [in warm] til desired balance is achieved.

F310s, sized up one to 31 for relaxed fit

Two years, worn maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of that, but worn hard - these are my camping/hiking/gardening and weekend jeans, soaked once, handwashed twice. Sorry for the slight blurriness, no natural light and didn't want to edit them Arcs were taken off about halfway through, left some cool imprints

This is off topic I know, but where did you get that wallet from and could you provide more pics?

What do you mean by final wash? Are you never wearing these again?

They look great, btw.
