Fade of the Day – Upper Class Les Enfants Terrible UC Signature C3 (10 Months, 1 Wash)

Denimheads are everywhere and we would be remiss to not feature the fades of our brethren in Europe as well. Swiss reader Miguel Moreno sent in these limited edition Upper Class Denim Les Enfants Terrible UC C3 Slim Class jeans after ten months of daily wear for today’s Fade of the Day.

As the owner of a spray paint store in Zurich, Miguel is exposed to the stuff all day, and the little paint stains on his jeans add a defining touch – you can tell these are unpretentious work pants. Some key areas have lost almost all color and contrast beautifully with the surviving indigo. The crossed belt loops look especially cool as do the pocket fades.

Having only been washed once these jeans seem to be holding steady, with nice whiskers having been created; the honeycombs are light but well defined, and some seriously cool cuff stacking details round out this great Fade of the Day.
