7 years into his Iron Heart jeans and it’s clear there is something in the Colorado air because Adam’s jeans are livin’ their best life. Like, truly having a healthier routine than most humans. Bought back in 2014, they’ve spent a good deal of time in the ol’ cannabis garden, with off-time being spent in the trees and cooling off in mountain lakes and creeks. And then there are those mushrooms that need harvesting up at 10,000 ft.

So these jeans have been basically treated like Tajima cattle (Wagyu beef), but as you can see, the results have clearly paid off. The creases are so deep they look like tree roots, and the bright, washed-out fabric reveals ridiculously grainy texture which looks like sandpaper but is probably smooth like butter.  Tuned up by Indigo Proof, these beauties show no sign of slowing down and will likely be Adam’s trusty work and travel partner for years to come.
