Nudie Jeans and Nordstrom finish up their #breakingdenim campaign with one last stop in the Pacific Northwest. Featuring Seattle’s Alex Kostelnik, owner of 20/20 Cycle, the avid Nudie enthusiast opted for a fresh pair of Grim Tim Dry Navy. Armed with prior knowledge on the art of breaking in denim, Kostelnik wore his pair 250 days out of the year, working the jeans into his active outdoors biking lifestyle. In addition, the Seattleite fully remodeled a 400-sq.-ft. house and repaired a ton of bikes in them, resulting in the need for repairing the crotch and left pocket. Over the course of the year, Kostelnik's Grim Tim Dry Navy were washed just twice – once by hand after a plumbing accident while working at home.

Check out the final results above and shop the current collection of Nudie Jeans here.
