Today’s Fade Of The Day comes from Azure in Taiwan, who wanted to share what he’s done with his Dior Homme BAS19 MIJ in two-and-a-half years time.

What we have here is a super solid looking pair of jeans with all the right fade boxes checked. Regular wear and tear has created distressing at the knee along with some small holes and frayed seams at the hip, and, to that end, we can see at least one crotch blowout has occurred with some sweet darning used in the repair.

Azure’s got some great whiskers at the lap, which cascade down the inseam all the way to the knee before running into a long cluster of tight honeycombs at the back knee. Best of all are the super nice stacks at the bottom—not too much of a stack, just the right amount.
