5 Perfect Dad Jeans 

Dude! Welcome back and congratulations!!! There is nothing better than kids in this life, and I know you’ve got to be an awesome father. Happy you’re back!

I’m glad your back and I’m even happier that everything is well with your new family. While you were gone I re-watched a video from a few months ago where you had a comment from an older dude who said we shouldn’t be afraid to wash our jeans. He made a point to say that every time he gets a new pair, he washes and drys them twice just to break them in. Well, I decided to try it out on a new pair of 18oz jeans. I had been wearing them for about three weeks straight and was having a hard time with my junk getting caught, in what felt like a Vice, every time I took a large step. These jeans are no joke before they break in, lol. Anyway, I decided to try it and wow! I still turned them inside out for the washes, but what they did to my jeans was a game-changer. For me at least. It brought out an electric blue color that is amazing, and while they still feel nice and thick, my legs no longer feel like they are getting a severe workout with every step. I’m not really into the high-contrast fades, so this may not be everyone’s cup of tea. I like the subtle fades and the electric hues. The Jeans are Brave Star 18oz “Saber” from a loom in Japan. Also, I washed them in a regular cycle, and dried them in the dryer. Inside-out in the washer, right-side out for the dryer. I’m still going to wait a while between wears, but I think I’ll be washing them a lot more in the future than what I had been planning. Like maybe once every three months or so. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for putting that Dude’s comment up there for us all to see. And congratulations 🎊🎈🍾🎉! Sleep is overrated anyway 😉

My husband and I had a good laugh over this. Lots of conversation. Love your chatter- it’s so good.

Your build also contributes to your Jean fit as well. A classic fit looks like a baggy fit on me and what most people would consider most slim fit is a classic fit on me . Congratulations on being a new father.

Welcome back dude and congratulations on the baby! Btw, was watching the new show “the bear” on Hulu and in the first episode the main guy was selling “vintage red line selvedge” and “a blanket lined type 3” and it blew my mind hearing denim stuff on a mainstream show 😂

Congratulations!!! Appreciate all that I've learned about denim thanks to you and am glad you're back. I have a 3 and 5 year old, and I realized pretty quickly that I needed to be able to crouch for extended periods of time, cross my legs as I play with them, and just be variously Gumby-like. My first legit selvedge purchase was a pair of Nudie dry Grim Tim selvedge (purchased based on your vids), and I love them. They took some time to mold to me and stretch to suit my dad lifestyle, but now they're great. When my first was still really little, I went cross-legged to play with her on the floor, and something in the crotch of my Nudies went "POP." lol I have never been able to figure out what made that sound. The jeans are fine. I think that most high quality denim will work itself out. You just have to not care if your $300 pair of whatevers gets shit on/spit on/etc, and you're good. lol Laughed out loud @"even a brief jaunt to a cafe involves military grade precision and logistics." So true. So damn true. :)

My baby girl is almost 9 months old. Congrats! I have been rocking my dad jeans the whole time: Flat Head 8002 Heavyweight 18oz Denim Jean - Slim Tapered - Unsanforized. I bought them a few days before the first lock down, in early 2020. I have not added them to the laundry rotation any more frequently than before the baby, but to each their own. They just get more wear and grime. Especially the knees have started fading to white much faster since I am constantly down in my knees with her.

What about the Edwin Marlon jeans, with comfort and ease in mind and the crop to add the modern touch? This is the new "dad" jean I think.

Welcome to the Dad club good sir! Dad of five with 3 Grandchildren and my Dad Jean of choice… Hiut SkinR Selvedge….just the best! Keep up the awesome work

Glad to have you back and congrats on being a dad!

Welcome back, congrats on the new addition to the family. Enjoy your videos, have learned a lot.

Congrats! Should we start a club called The Denim Dad’s, or something similar!? Nice to see you back, and welcome to the club! It’s fun being a dad!

Congratulations brother. Welcome to the dad club 👊

I have Bravestar straight 17oz Japanese denim for the winter and 10.75 oz stretch cone mills denim for the summer. I don’t worry about them.

Glad to have you back man! Good to hear dad life is treating you well

Congratulations! And welcome back!

My Samurai s510s are my "dad jean". Not the most flattering silhouette but my God they're comfortable.

American suburban dad with a 14 year old son. I wear Levis LVC 1947's, my son wears LVC 505's. With babies you're better off in tab twills or take yourself down the vintage Champion reverse weave rabbit hole till you've memorized all the labels and have a closet full of sweaters from schools you didn't go to.

congrats on your new life! glad you’re back.

That was weird, I was thinking about your channel earlier on. Anyway, good to see you're back up and running with more good vid's a usual. Regards as always.

Congratulations! Have missed your vids, even though I’m a petite lassie.

Congratulations with the little new, all the best

Just out of curiosity what is the watch you are wearing? like the look of it

Wrangler 13mwz. My higher quality Japanese pairs like Oni, Sugar Cane Resolute have been sitting on the sidelines.

Instead of hunting down non-existing nice dressing dad-jeans, go after vintage mom jeans, which are smaller on the hips. They are way more stylish on men. For example a Levi's 550 (not the new relaxed dad model, but the nineties mom model). They beat a 501 cut.

What jacket are you wearing?

Obama/Clooney jeans in my mind is the dad's cut as opposed to boyfriend jeans and the fashion forward antifit

Cabourn Naval dungarees yes! Most comfortable and functional item. I own

Rustler jeans and wide leg wranglers are dad jeans

im considering those dungarees just for the points you made exactly better then carrying around a huge backpack load pockets eith nappys n bottle n wipes . n my daughters called carly aswell

congrats on the baby. missed this lol

For me Carhartt rugged flex. I can put a baby bottle in the side pocket.

Hey, whats the difference between tight and loose weave?

Welcome back 👌

Iron heart 555 in a size up is a great fit1 also the sugarcane 2014

Congrats mate 👍🏻

Congrats 🎉👏

welcome to the Club

Never going to wear dungarees never trevor 🤣

Congratulations

Costco Jeans!🤣🤣🤣

Warehouse 1105 / Studio Dartson ivy fit / Drakes / orslow 107

The naughty’s, the early naughty’s

Congratulations! As a father of two, I can just say, the ability to wash/clean your pants cannot be overestimated! Your are getting stains, some really gross ones. Also, you are going to spend a lot (!) of time on your knees and sitting on the floor. So, good choice!

Let's all put the kool-aid down and get real for a moment, those dungarees look like shit. They're like a bad joke that accidentally took off. Congrats man!

if you ever want to see ultra rare footage of donald trumprockinig raw denim overalls, look up Donald Trump green acres

Dad jeans are horrible in my opinion. Since when has comfort got anything to do with style and fashion. Ps wear joggers when changing nappies etc

Dad jeans? Mom jeans? Sick of these trendy terms 😂🤦

This has got to be the most superficial asinine and unintelligent 17:20 of runtime on the subject of clothing fashion a person could subject themselves to. Embarrassing

I’ve been refreshing your page for a couple weeks waiting on new video. Check in in on Instagram. Glad you’re back
