Haha, no need for judges then, we could battle it out at noon on the first meet up and end this quick.

^Kitano is my second favorite badass of all time. But rather in his Yakuza films... His Zatoichi movie was great too, loved it.

Personally, I wouldn't mind another Kurosawa reference. Like something related to my favorite badass Mifune:

yep, it's a kind of lottery. now I'll update the list, then I'll cacth up with the thread.

but again I can say: free shipping, free hemming, and maximum would be around 325$.

edit: oh, of course as JimmyC is in this contest, there will probably be a contest tee, limited to the contestants. but buying is not mandatory

Nice!12345678

deadendpro: I found the size chart on kaizoku-pirates.com quite helpful as they sell the 0500XX in one wash:

This seems to be a lot#12 and the lot# we will be getting might shrink differently, but maybe this helps a little.

To anyone else unsure about sizes, please look at b_F's fit guide carefully. I thought I did, but various PMs later I realized that I didn't........ A lot of PMs to b_F could have been avoided and he might have had more time negotiating a good deal for all of us. But maybe that was just me.

MF?? :confused:

I also gotta pay for my pair first, haha... But a few bucks I can spare come September, I'm sure.

That's great news regarding the shipping and hemming, b_F. Payment in September seems like a good solution, I'm sure many will appreciate it.

I talked to coleslawyum btw and all sizing issues are resolved now. I'll stay with 38.

I'd advice you to go TTS... Maybe only because I don't wanna be the only one with a loose fit. Honestly, the first fit looks nicer, but maybe you, who has a lot of Sams, should try something different this time around.

How about free kaminari soap for every contestant?

Haha... I'm gonna love this thread...+rep if I could.

Retail + free chainstitching is already good enough for me... Anything else is just the cherry on top of the hash brownie.

Yeah, yeah... New Kids.... ;Q Lekker I learned before that tho... But I'd better not tell you in which context.

As far as goodies are concerned, I guess they are still in negotiations about that. But in Max and b_F I trust. I'm sure it'll be nice.

WIir lieben dich auch, Ika. When it's meet-up time, we bring the beer, you guys the weed and a whole lot of Sandburgen will be built. Running around naked.... depends on the amount of beer and weed.

(My knowledge of dutch is limited to "lekker", "kut" and "jonge".... In that order. I think this might even be a whole (nasty and weird) sentence. "Lekker kut, jonge!")

Don't know about the Sandburgen, but all my friends who went to the Netherlands mainly built something to smoke..............

I see some bad inter European trash talking in the future of this contest.... Hell yeah! And I just realized that the contest overlaps with the Euro 2012 football championship..

wel..that's definately not cheap or his Samurais

Ooops. Must have drunk.......:confused: Nontheless.... might be helpful.

While looking for fit pics I found

The whole evolution of cheap's 0500s.

Sizing up is the new sizing down....

You girls are of course more bad ass than levitating girl (it's only ONE girl afaik) but I don't really think her stuff is photoshopped at all.

http://newyork.ibtimes.com/articles/169761/20110626/natsumi-hayashi-levitating-girl-photo-how-to-fly-float.htm

An interesting article on her. BUT I'm not an expert on this and might very well be wrong.

Anyway, nice pics and video, Beatle, the fit looks good to me too!!

So any ideas on how to fund cheap? I'm down, I think he absolutely has to be in this.

I chose a 38, because I gained weight and don't want a slim fit on these. I usually wear a 36 in everything, but have limited experience with premium denim. My ALD Frontier (favorite and only pair) had 36 tag size, but were about 37 from the start and are now at 38. Those were a loose fit on top of all that and that's why I think a 38 would be best, even if I could squeeze myself into a 36.

I know a 36 would eventually stretch to a 38, but still.... the fit of the 0500 intimidates me. Plus I expect the 38 to only stretch about 1 inch like my ALDs because of the looser fit. Natural waist is really at a whopping 38.

Most importantly: If I'm wrong and they are too big in the end, it doesn't matter, I would still rock em.

Enough spamming, off to work. Getting paper, ya know, for dem jawnz and shit.

Do they really? I mean, that would be... scheiße. ;(

Wird man auf SuFu eigentlich gebanned, wenn man in seiner Landessprache spricht?

from 2nd:

hahaha.... yeah, I forgot, that monster of a wallet. I can't win... need some big ass red moon. On both sides.
