Eight years may seem like more than a lifetime in the world of raw denim, but these Warehouse x Blue in Green 660 Dubbleworks have made it to that milestone and then some. Not surprisingly, this was our submitter‘s first pair of Japanese raw denim jeans, purchased after graduating from school and before starting his first job as an adult.

They represent a pivotal moment in his life that he can look back on and smile about, back to when he earned his first honeycomb and patch-worthy hole. Speaking of patches, these jeans aren’t lacking in that category, featuring a multitude of thread colors and all done by hand. Needless to say, these are ones for the denim scrap book.
