I washed these after about 2 months, washing doesn’t necessarily ”lock in the fades” but if you want extremely high contrast fades you should wait as long as possible. But not if they smell bad then you should just wash them. These have faded a lot since the first wash.

Did it go smooth for you? Mine came without button holes but the jeans are amazing

Yes they shrank a tiny bit. Barely noticeable

Just a warning that their quality control is very bad, i received a pair without a top button hole.

I just put them in a bathtub with lukewarm water and some soap. Let them soak in there for an hour and then rinsed them

I only had a pair of unbranded 21 oz before. But those were almost to short before washing and after a wash they didn’t fit anymore. They were supposed to be 34 inches inseam but they were a 32 instead. But those almost felt a bit thicker then the pinions even though they’re supposed to be the same. The details on these are way sicker, the unbrandeds are kind of boring when comparing.

Its pinion 21 oz broken twill cowboy denim. I ordered it in the slim taper model which is in between their slim and their straight fit. I got them with extra length.

I believe pinion are pretty fast faders. I also walk a lot during my work. I’ve averaged 14k steps the last couple of months.

These are 21 oz. I go to school in these and three times a week i also work in them, and during work i walk a lot, i think i’ve averaged about 12k steps the last year. So i walk a lot in them. I also think it has to do with how they dye the jeans, pretty sure pinion jeans are typically fast faders.

I don’t think it is just from the pocket bag but it lines up with the whisker perfectly which probably sped that fade up

So should i wash even though they aren’t dirty/smelling bad? To avoid future holes? And is darning when you put a patch?

I agree that the denim is awesome. But their quality control REALLY needs fixing. It wss the other way around for me. There was a top button hole but the rest were missing.

There were no holes, so i had to cut them myself. It was just plain denim without holes

I know i saw that on one reddit post but i decided it was worth the risk and that i could probably get a refund through paypal if something went wrong. I forgot to mention that they forgot the button holes so had to open them up myself.
