  1. my sam's are getting repaired.... both my back pockets were coming undone, where you could see the hidden rivets. I should of taken pics before hand but I forgot. Plus I'm repairing my crotch too. I was speaking with Gordon over at BIG and we both came to the conclusion that washing these sammy's is a good thing. It helps keep the stitching tight and stronger. Which makes sense if you really think about it? (thanks Gordon) The more you wear these, the denim stretches and you get space between the threads/stitches. Making it more prone to breaking, hence my back pockets busting I believe. I think everyone in the contest can agree when putting these jeans on after a soak or a wash the fit is nice and snug. Especially with this being texas cotton denim, I really feel washing these sammy's is a good thing and will help preserve your stitching from breaking.

  2. I've been sleeping..those looke like a great fit...Regarding the fit pics - maybe a 29 for a regular 30 would be perfect . Sizing down 1 ??

    I was thinking the same thing beatle.... I'm rocking a size 30 in the sammy contest. -could of gone down one more size.

  3. What about 205 it's a nice spot with an upstairs and downstairs....

    With Serge Becker of La Esquina and the Box involved, the reinvention of former rock dive 6s and 8s was bound to be high-concept: The upstairs re-creates Warhol’s Factory via tinfoil on brick, gunmetal filing cabinets under the bar, and faux water damage on the walls and ceiling. On any given day, creative director Aaron Bondaroff—owner of the store aNYthing—keeps the Warholesque spirit alive by populating the raised D.J. pulpit with the likes of Kid America and Jamal Ali then filling the mismatched vintage furniture with fashion folk, Japanese hipsters, and skateboarding chuggers of Colt 45s, here to gawk at transgressive artists like Dan Colen, Ryan McGinley, and Neck Face (who graffiti-ed the building’s exterior). Meanwhile the Purple Group (of Cielo) brings a more Euro crowd to a low-ceilinged, candlelit basement where plywood walls are covered in text from Craigslist personals ads and dark electronica from outfits like Rub and Tug keeps everyone dancing (and cruising) until 4 a.m.
