Gap Williamsburgs 33x34
Bout time i should have posted these pics up.

Bought on Jan. 13 2007 Worn about 5 days of the week for the 1st 2 months. After that they have been worn everyday

Ive tried Nudies Slim Jims and Even Stevens and i think the Williamsburg are way better. I dont think they get enough credit simlply because they are GAP. While everyone was hoping on the goughs i copped these. Enought talk here are the pics.

btw mods should sticky this topic. too many noobs askin the same questions which could be answered in here.













Hot Soaked for 2 hours









I just recently put 4 AA batteries in the coin pocket to get some nice fades there and im thinking of getting plastic brass knuckles to the other back pocket

I really dislike my STF's after an initial soak and one month of wear and tear. The color and fading properties are way awkward. Since then I've thrown them somewhere in the basement.

That is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. Just wear your jeans, the whole idea is for the fade to be natural.

the stf 501's that i have seen are dark blue, but the quality don't look like this, the fabric is like FUZZY , the 501s i saw looks cheap and not as dark.

Is there a difference in appearence for the raw 501s and regular 501s?

whats the difference between stf 501 and stf 501xx? sorry im a noob.



i know that those in the photo aren't 501's duh..

i was just saying that the 501's and 505's i have are all FUZZY, the fabric has FUZZ on it, and the color isn't like dark dark blue. Maybe it's cuz they are $30 501's.

I still need answers to:

My goughs about 4month no wash


great jeans, i realize this...but after my tastes have subsequently changed this year i realized those damn things are just way too baggy for my style.

i just wish the damn leg openings weren't coffee can sized.

well... for me its skating with a wallet that had a snap in one pocket and my keys in the other. you fall and slide with something metal in your pocket and no matter what it is its gonna eventually rip. if they were some levis STF i would have no jeans left.
