Broken Twill

After a solid year of continuous wear and tear, along with one soak, the Raleigh Denim broken twill were washed. 

We have previously talked about how different weaves in denim will have an effect on the fade. Right hand twill has the sharpest and most noticeable fading with left hand twill being softer. Broken twill however seems to be the lightest of them all which shouldn't be surprising. If you compare photos between this pair and the last pair of Raleigh I posted about, you will easily be able to see the difference in the fade. That is what is so great about selvedge denim, each pair fades and wears completely different which truly allows for a final product unique to each pair and owner.

I strongly encourage you to go out and buy different weaves from different brands and see what looks and wears best for you. Every broken in pair of denim tells a story, share yours.
