Just fyi chainstitch hemming is not a lost art or anything, it's just that the particular Union Special machines used to chainstitch back in the day had a design defect that caused that diagonal "roping" effect, in reality a properly done chainstitch isn't supposed to do that.
>>18722425What an odd things to bring up apropos of nothing
>>18703583No clue how he got his pants so fucked up while keeping the leg cuffs so mint. The denim I wear is all fitted properly yet the ends are always fade and tear only second to the knees. I imagine its due to dirt and shit from working in them, but with how worn his thighs/knees are I have to assume hes not avoiding labor with his

Great thread guys, let's make sure to keep relitigating this pointless bullshit over and over and over and over again
This is the perfect style of Fade for me. Not too high contrast, but still enough that it's unique. Maybe wash every 2-3 months, assuming regular daily wear?
>>18723407im just one guy with a crazy idea but what if we just ignored the dei spammer and posted fades?
post your fades ignore the spammer
>>18723429thats what i call half and half fades, alsomy favorite. those haven't been washed too many times, maybe 4-8 cycles depending on what detergent is my guess from how dark the darker parts of the whiskers and below the knees are. and they have pretty strong combs and well set in creases. i usually accomplish that sort of fade by doing the high contrast fade no wash thing for half a year to a year depending on how hard you wear them and how much you want the creases to visually pop, AND THEN i start washing liberally. i also have looser fitting zero wash jeans that begin looking that way after 5yr or so. so you can achieve it multiple ways.washing right away you wont get the typeof creases or high contrast parts of your example fade, unless they're tigher fitting and worn hard, is my guess.hard wear and uv does just as much for the low contrast part of the fade as the washing machine does imo.
>>18723429the fits also crucial in how the fades evolve, you want that sort of loose but not too loose fit he has in your pic. too loose and you won't get the creases, too tight and they'll look more vertical and be more contrasty than those. relaxed-straight fit for those fades.
>>18723433No. Anti woke= anti white
>>18723429God blue denim looks so ugly, if you think about it. Why did blue become the default color for jeans instead of black? Mid wash blue jeans look like complete shit. They're much better when raw, or uniformly light wash. Black jeans on the other hand look good at any level.Not to mention, blue doesn't even look good on every skin tone and complexion. If you're really pale, blue makes you look deathly pale. If you have brown or black skin, mid wash and light wash indigo blue will make you look even darker. Meanwhile, black jeans look good at any level of fade, and will look good with any skin color.
>>18723446Because its been one of the cheapest dyes in the west around going back millenia. Before proper indigo started being imported from India to Europe, people sourced the same chemical from woad. Black is a comparatively expensive dye but has had its popularity in in Anglosphere on and off going back to like the 16th century but mostly with the middle classes who wanted to dress less flamboyant by going entirely black.
>>18723480But by the time denim became popular among the general population in the 1950s (and not just workers), synthetic dyes were much cheaper than natural indigo. So multiple colors of denim should have been popular, just like with t-shirts. But instead 95% of denim sold and worn by people is still blue.
>>18723480>>18723484they tried to push for black denim for a while but it never took off because sulfur dyed jeans react with heat turn gray if you air dry them and don't baby them. newer dye methods were not available.anecdotally, i wear my blues way more than my black jeans because its easier to fit them into non all black fits and they look good with most footwear whereas with black it has to be more coordinated with sneakers (if youre a bootfag its non issue.) indigo just kinda goes with almost everything in my wardrobe and black doesn't.
Is bleached denim for the gays / women?
>>18723520sure
>>18723520All denim is for men. Bleached, light wash, stone wash, raw, faded, distressed, even embroidered jeans, were all made first for and by men. Faggots and women appropriated them later, like with everything else in fashion.
>>18723524Just like DEIs you dumbass
>>18723446>>18723480>>18723484>>18723480>>18723496None of this shit is true. Go burn your DEI fashion history books
>>18722417is that Pharrell Williams in the middle ?
>>18723520No. You can look like a complete homo wearing any kind of jeans but its more about your overall aesthetic than any one single item.
>>18723528every boomer uses the tumble drier and if you mention black jeans to them they say "dont those turn gray?"
>>18723520if you want bleached denim that looks really cool, get some raws and get some fades going then bleach them. it makes them subtly darker below the knee and in the creases which adds some dimension and texture without taking away from the look.
>>18723520sun faded like my jacket is way cooler than all-over bleached. you can sorta emulate it with the "wear as denimbro jeans, then bleach" method. the fading won't be top/down or as diffused and the shadows wont be as dark if you bleach, but you might like that better.
