Agreed. It should fade in where the sideburns begin.

Here’s the funky thing about raw denim… You’re supposed to wear your jeans every day for 1 year without washing. Sounds crazy as hell right? Apparently everyone swears by it. And… I’ve seen the fade pics to prove it. There’s a few tricks to keep them from getting too nasty. But yeah, these denim heads swear by it.

You’re absolutely right and I’ve read that before. I believe I’ve even seen some executive from Levi Strauss talk about how he never washes his. By the way, I hope you can periodically post shots of the progress.
