Today’s Fade has got that overall vintage fade we love. These Big John Rare R009 jeans were worn by Olivier Gandon for nearly a year with 2 washes and 2 soaks. He’s produced these fades while doing hard manual labor at a construction site as well as while playing with his child.

It even has it’s own built-in diary. The entries may be fairly limited to “buy,” “wash,” and “soak,” but it’s still a step in the right direction for denim introspection.
