Looking for a pair of denim that will fade well but won’t break the bank? Then we have a pair of Levi’s for you. This pair of 511 Rigid Dragons, sent in courtesy of Long Tran of Canada, has faded nicely, and comes in at the sub-$100 mark. Not bad considering the kinds of fades, especially honeycombs, that Tran got out of these jeans by wearing them almost every day for 16 months. The kicker? He’s never had to repair them.
