The slim fittin’, super fadin‘ ST-100X from 3sixteen is back with another appearance on Fade Of The Day. This pair come to us from Brian Buckley of Colorado, who’s worn them daily for 2 years, earning some solid fades along the way.

Brian tells us these are his go-to jeans, and he’s worked these fades through biking, hiking, and attending countless concerts. The denim has developed a steely-blue cast after five soaks, but the lap is wearing down nicely, with the thighs starting to fade to white. The whiskers are strong and defined, spanning over to the frayed and crocked front pockets. A subtle pocket fade is working it’s way through one of the back-pocket – but check out those honeycombs – deep set and ready to start popping.

The crotch has required two repairs already, but Brian has been quick to the mark, so these 3sixteens are still going strong, ready for a life of fades ahead.
