Imagine taking your new pair of jeans and putting them into the fade machine. Now, imagine that machine takes over four years to work and produces the kind of fades worthy of trophies, and you may be close to today’s Fade Friday. Sent to us by Wilson Gautama from Indonesia, these Samurai S003JP‘s have earned their keep the hard way – with lots of good old fashioned wear to work and school.

We see a lot of gnarly jeans on here (you probably do too), but it’s pairs like this that set the standard for the rest. Sure the whiskers are there, the thighs are almost white, and the honeycombs are so thick they are starting to blend together. But take a look at the real money shot here, the insanity happening around the ankles. These are some of the cleanest and most uniform stacks we’ve ever seen, it’s almost as if they were made by that fabled fade machine.
