After 500+ long days of wear, give or take, I've decided to wash these jeans. I don't have a bathtub in Paris so I've decided to give these a hot wash in a large mop bucket.
It's always a bit emotional to wash a pair of jeans you've been washing for ages - so I have a lot of wear images from a bunch of angles to really show you all the character that these have built over a year and a half.
Since I started wearing raw denim, I've found that Uniqlo has an aesthetic closest to APCs and they're hyper affordable. They don't actually rip on the stress points as often either I find, so these are definitely an investment even if they're outside of your budget.
I hope you guys like these - they're called the "Slim Straight" Selvedge at Uniqlo but if you turn them inside out you can see that its sourced from Kaihara. They sometimes come in the button-fly variation which I've found are truer to the APC fading.
