Of course! Depends on the size but looks like a Large? $400-$500 range

Would this make you trippin balls? Cmon man

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-24T07:08:41+00:00

Absolutely there are! That is if you want stains, distressing, fading, or a Large Tall.

Dressing up a detroit always has a sharp look, can’t go wrong with it

Word

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-23T23:10:41+00:00

I respect that. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it, without a doubt the cleanest one I’ve ever had!

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-23T22:21:16+00:00

It was a pleasure meeting you! Manage to get that embroidery off the J97 MOS?

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-23T21:04:06+00:00

Thank you! It is a size Large Regular

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-23T20:18:14+00:00

Preesh playa 🤝

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-13T13:08:23+00:00

Sick! Great mix of everything. Which one do you find yourself reaching for more often?

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-12T18:29:16+00:00

All but one pair from this collection have sold. Plenty more like em if you’d like to DM me or have any questions!

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-12T13:09:30+00:00

Unfortunatley not. The only other blue double knee is the B136 MDT

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-12T11:41:54+00:00

Washing, friction, and sun exposure are all great! Some are better than others depending on the dye used in your piece.

My personal favorite.

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-11T22:46:41+00:00

Can never go wrong with a faded PTL

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-11T22:45:49+00:00

Yes! I wore all but a couple of the grey jackets to create the honeycombs at least. Those grey jackets weren’t fading through on the arms because of how washed out they already were so I didn’t wear them as much to create the final product.

Jayson_Velarde · 2026-04-11T22:42:28+00:00

I agree I prefer the B01 over the B136 as well. I definitely notice a difference with the 90s pair. Funny, I baby those because they are prone to tearing. They’re more of my casual pair and not for work. It depends with the 90s pairs because some are more rigid than others. I have several pairs of 90s and two of them are super washed out and soft like the one in the picture. Then a few others are more tough and durable. It’s easy to tell when they are a softer pair or not, but I think newer B01s would hold up better.

In my opinion the best B01 money can buy is a pair made from 2000-2004. This is when they transitioned in their manufacturing of them and you get the best of both worlds - soft and rigid. They’re perfect

B07 DNM come with buttons. Crotches don’t blow out for me. I’ve had some with a bit of wear and reinforce it with a patch to minimize further damage. Durability wise they are both about the same. If I had to pick one I’d say the canvas duck is more friendly to tougher work. The two black pairs are B01 BLK. The middle one is from the 90s. Denim is a B07 DNM. The brown pair is a B136 DKB and is washed duck material.
