im gonna email gordon... thinking that it wouldnt hurt to extend the time till the end of november. i doubt it will make that much of a difference in the results.
if anyone feels differently, please let me know.
Not that I really care since I'm salaryman status, but I was always under the impression that the contest was going to end that day no matter what. This was decided to make the contest uniform in some way because it would be impossible to measure a year's wear time for everyone.
my 2 cents

I like the dude's pink engineer boots, hilarious

even back then, you could see David's potential for wrecking jeans...

fbf - thanks for sharing! That's pretty much exactly the color I'm looking for. One more question: do you know if they tend to come in different widths? I have very narrow feet, so I usually need a b or c ( unless the last happens to be narrow)

^ it's more of an overall assessment I'm looking for. Are they any good? Comfy? How does the sizing go? And what's a fair price for them? I've heard that some of them were done by C&J, but I'm assuming those are more rare these days
here's one example I was looking at the other day (not my size, but you get the idea):

is anybody here an expert on Polo Ralph Lauren's line of laceups? They show up periodically on eBay for decent prices and I was a little curious about them. I was hoping to find a simple chestnut colored plaintoe blucher that I can wear casually...

Has anyone ever gone to one of their sample sales? Are they any good?

Not to be a debbie downer, but I can't imagine that you'd be able to knock much off of the price of cordo... I've found that most cordo shoes maintain just about the same price (probably owing to the fact that it is really only produced in a select few places).
Still, you'd be able to build it to your guys' specs which may be a better deal overall.

how do I wash coated jeans without losing the finish? I am talking in particular about Nudie TFDBC...
Do I have to dry clean those suckers?

^ They look a lot more subtle (probably on account of his not sizing down). They've got a great vintagey look going on.
And he's a weekend warrior too, right? Man he kicked my ass. I need to do what he does on the weekends.

^^ Those Levi's are orange tab 517s (bootcut, but not bell bottom). Those are an excellent specimen of vintage Levi's. Someone could probably give you a better date, but I'd estimate that those are from the late 70s or so.

anybody know what the difference is (if any) between the 610 (Texas / 0500X denim on a 710 cut) and the Samurai 2nd collab?

what other jeans does evisu do in that Leevisu cut (0005 I think?) apparently it's slimmer than their other stuff...

christ, when did sufu get a boner for gibson/when did gibson become a fashion icon? not objecting, just curious...though neuromancer is the fucking shit and i really should read the rest of that trilogy
read pattern recognition... it's basically sufu, the book version.

ask me about warehouse, i got here about 2 times a week.
First of all, jealous! I love warehouse...
What can you tell us about the newer DD's (i.e. the ones with the leather patches instead of sticthing for the pockets?) how do they compare to the older DD's? and are they planning to phase out the older DD's in favor of the newer ones?
also, how do the new warrens fit compared to the SuFu/Dubbleworks 660?

I own the 1920's and the 1930's and judging from your taste in jeans (you're the one with the crazy Warehouse Leepros, right?), I think you'd enjoy the DD's better. I haven't seen the Warrens in person, but I think they're pretty similar to the 1001, denim-wise.
DD's have this great slubby fabric that has a nice soft hand but isn't so slubby that it's practically corduroy (like PBJ's). The styling is also a lot more aggressive on DD's, which really makes it feel like something special. Which model are you looking into?
Edit: oh yeah, and in my experience (as well as from the pair above), they fade fairly slowly and not so contrasty... it's more of a greyish blue. They stay pretty dark for a while.

FANTASTICO!
I'm glad that you escaped the grind of midtown manhattan and are out in the country air...
It's funny, some of the architecture reminds me of places in the Philippines (e.g. the bricks in that shot of Park Ave.) Geographically, Okinawa is not so far from the Philippines, so that's not surprising (and I'm guessing to a limited extent, the same is true for culture).
Please keep the pictures and great entries up... this is such a treat for us all. SUGOI!

oh my these are quite sexy... I bet they cost like 600 tho. What's the leather, horsehide?

I think that makes sense. It certainly corresponds with how the cuts look like online.
Is the Lot 0331 the unsanforized version of the Heritage cut? If I'm understanding correctly, most of the US range is the Lot0001 cut you mentioned.

just waiting on Chrono Trigger for DS... it's the one game that I've really been pining for.
fell off of the gaming bandwagon once I got a job and consequently learned to appreciate the outdoors more.
