Fade of the Day – Nudie Grim Tim (3.5 Years, 3 Washes)

If we had a dollar for every pair of well-faded Nudie Grim Tims we’ve seen over the years, we’d have ourselves a lot of moulah! Today’s edition of Fade of the Day marks another appearance for this jean, with a pair submitted by Cole Anderson, from Saskatoon, Canada.

Cole has been wearing these Nudies in rotation with other jeans for three-and-a-half years, occasionally wearing them to work as a refrigerator mechanic. They might not be the most faded jeans we’ve showcased, but Cole has earned an authentic wear pattern, with heavily faded thighs, subtle honeycombs, and nice, symmetrical whiskers.

There’s been some damage that has accumulated along the way and, so far, the crotch and back pocket have both needed reinforcements. But Cole tells us these Nudies are “comfy as hell,” so he won’t be retiring them any time soon!
