Fade of the Day – Levi’s 501 STF (2 Years, 1 Soak)

Today’s Fade Of The Day comes in from Brent Rockwood over in Atlanta. He’s had this nicely broken-in pair of Levi’s 501 STF’s for two years now, and aside from the soak he gave ’em the day he procured these, he’s never washed or soaked since.

All potential smells aside, kudos to Brent for sticking it out, and particularly with a pair of Levi’s STF’s, which are a bit notorious for softer fades. What we see here isn’t the most high-contrast pair on the planet, but they sure look darn good.

Even still, we can see the makings of some solid fades and some really, really nice honeycombs creeping in. We want to see how those honeycombs look in another two years, especially after a wash or two!
