Undistressed Dark Indigo Wash?

Anyone know of a good undistressed dark indigo wash in Safado, Darron, or Shioner? I know of the Safado 8AA but they are pretty rare now. Sorta want something I can dress up, Safado 661D is nice but I can't find any in 27. :(

Can't pull off Thavar, thighs are too big or something. :P

How about 88z? I think it comes in many cuts. It's not as popular as 8aa so might be easier to find.

Hmm 88z looks pretty sweet, thanks!

Found a pair in my size, before I pull the trigger I heard a rumor that the vibrancy of the indigo in 88z fades after some wears. Any truth to this?

88z isn't true raw denim. Fading will be minimal

Mine didn't fade much, but then again I didn't wear much.

Good stuff! I wanted an indigo wash that didn't fade, so I'm glad 88z isn't dry denim. Got done with a pair of A.P.C.s a bit ago...

But I don't think 880g comes in any of the cuts you mentioned.

Sorry, I meant the 88z is perfect for what I was looking for, not the 880g. :P

As far as I've seen, I would say that 880G look very interesting on Krooley. In regards to the 88Z wash, mine have faded a lot so I wouldn't recommend!

How did you wash your 88z? There's lots of mixed reports from my research...people say it fades then there are those who say theirs don't fade at all after many washes and wears.

I have washed them only a few times with the regular temperature recommended on the jeans tags on the washing machine and along with other similar colour jeans, I don't give any special attention to those jeans. My best guess for those who claim they don't fade is that they wash them with a very soft program on the washing machine or maybe they don't wash them as often as I do. Mine started to fade after the 3rd wash (it also depends on your concept on "faded"... for me as soon as I see that the pockets show a slight difference in colour near the lining, I consider them to be faded) but it may be my fault due to the fact that I don't use the best program or should take better care of them.
