^haha I'm putting the wagon before the horse but provided all the stars are in alignment and there is a pair in my size available for purchase during my NYC trip in a week and a half, I'll accept your challenge sir! So much for no more denim....well, I guess thats just how it goes!

I think we should all wait until the 10th to wear!? Soak, hem and reinforce until then, but a gentlemen's agreement to postpone wear until the 10th would be cool. That way we can all wear on the 10th and not have to wait a day after soaking etc...

Too late. See ya in 2012

haha not really. Just got that guy in my head and thought it was appropriate here.

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

ah mang. sorry guys

[joelz]

one more detail - i got these hemmed and was basically making a bunch of old hems into scraps and I noticed this:

Two tones of threads interlocking looks amazing

[tvshooter]

^ yeah that's nice. look closely on your post hemmed jeans. did Gordon replicate that stitching? he did on my WH 660's. just wondering.

[joelz]

Hmm I'll take a look, honestly not too sure how I can see it without separating things...

[beatle]

knowing Gordon he probably went with the same detail...

[joelz]

Yea I looked at it this morning, same interlock on the chainstitch, the man is good, that's for sure

[beatle]

damn, was hoping my pair would be in in time for direct transportation to Germany, but it's not going to happen...so the wait continues

[chambo2008]

any news on the other batch? did they make it past customs yet?

[joelz]

I think that they were waiting for gordon to pay the customs tax...

[morse9443]

^highly doubtful. Shipments stay in US customs until officials reach that point in the que and clear the package. Depending how backed up they are, it could take a second. Just keep praying.

[PWNED]

Oh lookie here

hmm lets see whats inside

Plastic bag I see? Something must be inside

YES, what a pleasant surprise!

Pre-Soak Fit Pics

Post Soak after the soak and drying!

[morse9443]

^What did you get those hemmed to?

[PWNED]

A 34 pre soak, they are drying outside right now, expect pics tomorrow!

[Alex3000]

You aren't #8 brah

[reallypeacedoff]

You aren't #8 brah

Haha. He is on the post #2 of this thread. For people's information, that list was just who emailed me first, not necessarily who payed first. I would be interested to see what number I am as I just chose 10 because it was on the 10/10...

[PWNED]

Well, the numbering system is not based on when you bought the pair of jeans, instead it is when they produced it. My size 29's are number 77, but I paid the second day pre-orders were available.

[bulldogskoleff]

This is making me miss when my Eternals were new
