‘Tis the 3 month mark (3 and a half to be exact) of my SelfEdge x DryBones x Superfuture 2009 contest jeans.  Pretty significant fading for only 3 months of wear compared to the original. If you aren’t familiar with this collaboration, or to denim obsessions in general:

Supertalk, boasting an extremely active 40,000 users, is home to a sub-forum named Superdenim which is dedicated to all things denim, workwear, leather boots, and Americana reproductions. Over the years Superdenim has seen it’s fair share of denim contests, where the contestants are to wear the same jean every day for a certain duration of time, most commonly the span of the contest lasts from 12 to 24 months. With the SEXDBXS09 jean we’ve allowed the users of Superfuture and Superdenim to give their input on styling, cut, and accents for a very special jean to be released on February 28th; even the leather patch was designed by a renowned artist from Texas named JimmyC from Superfuture.

Still find it feasible to wear these during the hot summer months in So-Cal.  Hope the dryness holds up, otherwise it’s to the shorts we go…
