I wore these jeans again today and what is starting to stand out are the little cotton "nepps".
I did not realize that this denim was so neppy being that it was so black at first. In the photo of my knee you can notice them and a few on the legs also. This is going to be a fun pair to wear in!

Is that contrast stitching starting to show through? Pretty cool progression.

Nice pictures.
How are creases settling down? I always liked the overdyed concept but the 12oz fabric made me think twice how hard it would be to get the honeycombs to settle?

So far I love them. With the Sumi ink coating the jean is pretty stiff at first wearing . But if you soak them once in warm water to soften them up a litte. Then beat them into submission. And you will have a great pair of unique jeans  I soak them in the tub with a bit of woolight dark laundry soap if they get filthy. Here are some recent photos Of my Sumi jeans from just a few days ago. ![]() ![]() you can click the photos to see them larger      |
