AFFECTIONATELY NICKNAMED 'BULLETPROOFS' I BRAVED THIS 21 OZ. COLLABO BETWEEN NAKED&FAMOUS AND BLUE IN GREEN FOR MANY MONTHS WITH ONLY AN OCEAN DIP.
DETAILS
NAKED& FAMOUS + BLUE IN GREEN = THE MAD SCIENTISTS BEHIND THIS ENIGMA.
THIS IS PATCH JOB#1. EVEN WITH AN INDUSTRIAL SINGER, IT'S HARD WORK PATCHING THESE. IRON-ON PATCHES, DENIM SCRAPS AND ELBOW GREASE USED.
#NOMORE-SHORTCUTS. THE EDGES OF THIS PATCH ARE BEGINNING TO FRAY.
THE HOLES ARE A BYPRODUCT OF HEAVY-DENIM FRICTION, GRIME AND WEAR.
15 OZ. NAKED&FAMOUS WEIRD GUY SELVEDGE. BEST FADES I HAVE EVER ACHIEVED.
THEY USED TO BE SO DARK!!!
I DISCOVERED THIS RELAXED-FIT INDIGO CANVAS AT ARTISTS & FLEAS IN BROOKLYN. IT REMINDED ME OF A ROGAN INDIGO CANVAS THAT I LOST. I ALREADY HAD THE RALEIGH DENIM'S ON THE RIGHT. I'M A SUCKER FOR NOVELTY FABRIC WEFTS.
I ALSO THOUGHT THESE WOULD STRETCH...
BUT THEY DIDN'T. AND THE FABRIC HAD RESIN. THE BLOWOUT OCCURRED RIGHT BY THE SEAM! HENCE THE SIZE OF THE PATCH.
