Saturday update,

We finally got the site updated for the Spring season. Next up, summer! The weathers are getting better as well and the cool breeze is almost gone. Well the early mornings are still a bit cold but hey it is what it is.

Few updates. For the spring season this week we got new True Religion Straight Leg Billy jeans for the ladies. A great pair of jeans for different occasions and especially for the upcoming summer.

Another product update is the Gold Skull Chain jeans from The Year Of… A new design available in limited numbers only.

Enough of the introductions, ahead with the 0901 status raport!

I have not gone out hiking or anything with the jeans and the urban environment does not really have a dramatic effect on the jeans. The great fading qualities of the Momotaro are however starting to show. I was supposed to post detailed pictures of the fades only at week IV but I guess now is as good time as any. The great thing about the fading is that it really portrays your lifestyle. I spend most of my time in the office, sitting in front of my notebook nose glued to the screen and my jeans are starting to show this.

When I started wearing the jeans just three weeks ago the jeans were nearly black. Now the Japanese Indigo Blue is starting to appear with the fades. Naturally the jeans are still real dark and the fades are barely visible, but the blue color should become more apparent after the first soaking of the jeans. I am looking forward to seeing some fading pictures of Gold label jeans, which have a different blue color. So if you have been wearing in Gold label jeans, do send us some pics to info@nordicdenimhouse.com.

Due to all that sitting, the back pockets show the most fading but the front pocket where I carry my wallet shows signs of wear and tear as well. I tend to carry my wallet as well as my phone in the front pockets instead the back. Otherwise the back pocket would probably have even more fading.

With all the focus on my jeans I have totally forgotten my RMC belt, which I got from Hong Kong last October. I have pretty much worn it every day and it is really showing. I was afraid that the belt was going to be busted like any other belt I have had in the past few years. The avergae lifespan of my belts has been 6 months. And these are supposed to be long lasting leather belts, heh. I guess this is the main reason I have not got a Louis V belt, because it would just be horrible if I had to switch to a new one every 6 months. Nevertheless my current belt has seen the world and is still serving its purpose. Wear and tear is what I am after and I don’t mind few battle scars as long as the belt stays in one piece and does not snap into two in the middle of a train trip from Orchard Road to Choa Chu Kang…

That’s all for now, will get back at y’all later with more stuff. In the meanwhile stay healthy and enjoy the rather nice spring weather.

Prosperity to Y’all…
