11-Month Update: Wear & Tear Project 501ZXX

IMG_7809

Our athletic celebrity participant of the Levi’s Vintage Clothing Wear & Tear Project, world rank top-10 badmintoner Jan Ø. Jørgensen has been wearing his 1954 501ZXX as often as his job allows him to for almost 11 months now and they are really starting to break in. Jan hasn’t washed them for about 4 month and they are really starting to get greasy from all the hours they’ve been worn on flights between Europe and Asia. In total Jan has only washed the jeans twice since he wearing them; one soak and two delicate machine washes, and they’re soon due for another wash.
