Fade of the Day – Studio D’Artisan Pronto-001 (1 Year, 1 Wash, 3 Soaks)

Nep, nep, hooray! Heddels reader Ahmad Fitry of Malaysia is the proud owner of these super neppy Studio D’Artisan x Pronto-001 selvedge jeans, which are also today’s Fade of the Day.

Ahmad has owned these jeans for around a year, and typically only wears them on weekends. Only one wash and three soaks have been necessary during the year he’s owned these jeans, and so far the dye seems to be holding strong. Perhaps the biggest sign of real wear is on the back pocket, which has a great wallet fade developing.

The whiskers are beginning to come through nicely, and there are subtle hints of honeycombs popping up, too. At this rate his jeans are going to be around for a while, and should continue to fade fantastically.
