Fade Friday – The Top 5 Fades Of 2012

Just as we did nearly one year ago, there is no better way to ring in the new year than by giving a nod to the year prior. Though it’s tough to pinpoint which set of denim fades trumped all others in 2011, we give you the Top 5 Fades Of 2011 (measured by number of page views and impressions).

Note: Have a pair of fades that’d you like us to feature in 2013? Just post them up in our forum under “Fades & Progressions”!
