Through more than two years of wear and having gone through two harsh Swedish winters, these LVC 1967 505‘s are battered, bruised, and today’s Fade of the Day. Anton Isaksson has survived some tough conditions in these repro jeans and the results are weathered.

With just 2 washes and some very stubborn indigo, they’re still fairly dark with some good contrast. While his whiskers and honeycombs are nicely set, the back pockets are both blown out and it looks like the yoke is starting to go too. When the yoke eventually does bust, hopefully it won’t be in public or in the middle of another Swedish winter.
