Fade of the Day – Sage Ironhorn (6 Months, 1 Wash, 1 Soak)

If you are a regular reader of our daily fade features, you surely know the Indonesian denim makers Sage very well by now. Today we look at a pair of 23oz. Ironhorns worn by reader Irfan Dewantara for just six months with some awesome evolution already starting to show.

Wondering how Irfan achieved such rad results in so short a time? We were too, until he told us that he wears these jeans up to twelve hours a day, often times traveling via motorcycle to wherever he needs to get to. The heavy weight of the denim is starting to mold to his legs and form big honeycombs and whiskers, with plenty of back pocket and knee fades already appearing.

If you want to keep up with Irfan’s denim journey, give him a follow on Instagram.
