Fade Friday – Unbranded UB221 (1.5 Years, 2 Washes, 2 Soaks)

Although the Unbranded Brand doesn’t have an official logo or branding, they might just want to start using a picture of Sean’s jeans. Worn daily for a year-and-a-half, aside from 2 washes and 2 soaks, Sean just puts these jeans on and doesn’t look back. And why would you when your fades get fade-y-er every day?

I’ve always loved how bright Unbranded jeans get when worn right and this is just about as good as it gets—especially considering these are decade-old fades achieved in under two years.

To start, we got a gnarly, dirty yellow lap, which is kinda peak denim-evo in my opinion. Then there are the whiskers that run wild through it all, ridiculous Picasso-looking honeycombing, and 360-degree accordion-looking ankle level fades that couldn’t go harder. However, not to be outshone is the place where the sun don’t shine. Really good contrasting shades going on up in that seat.
