It wasn’t too long ago when Nudie Jeans came out with their heaviest denim to date, the Steady Eddie Dry Heavy Japan Selvedge jeans. Eight months later, with three washes and one soak, they’re today’s Fade of the Day thanks to Henrik.

His pair, #589 out of 1000, have some nice whisker action going on with both knees nearly completely devoid of indigo. After attending the Roskilde Festival, he says his jeans “smelled like death itself,” resulting in its most recent wash. Other than that, here’s been a repair at both the crotch and the pockets, but they’ve still got years before they’re put out to pasture.
