ROY X CONE contest, 1.1.11 - 2.1.12

[illumin8em]

.

Am I supposed to be voting? I have not had the opportunity to contribute, but have followed since the beginning and I do own a pair now. I am not asking if I can get in on it at the end, but I did not want to screw things up by being an absent vote once all is calculated.

[tg76]

Are those Red Wing shoes, TG? Love the massive selvage on your Roys.

yup. i picked them up in a shop and showed them to my man aka mr knowsnothingatallaboutclothes and he took them off me and took them up to the counter.... you guys need to get him to train your wives!

my massive selvege rules, you should all vote for me because of it

[dkatz]

This is still my go-to spot when I want to share something with my internetfriends.

Signed a lease today. Feel like a grown-up. Scary.

[roy6]

Talked to Roy today and he said to tell you all that he has come up with a firm prize for the winner: a unique ROY jacket, not exactly the same as any other jacket he has made or is currently making.

[zissou]

Whatever, RNR Seriously, though, you are right- this has been a great contest. I don't know that any others will really compare. This just might be my first and last.

Personally, I think illumin8em should vote if he wants to.

Lucky girl, tg. One of these days, when I find a woman, I'll buy her shoes.

Congrats, Daniel! THat has to be quite a change from the past year or so.

That's pretty cool, roy6. Quite a prize for the lucky winner!

[Goominim]

What's the history on those, dkatz? One of the best, so far.

GOod news all round - illumin8em's jeans have turned up (by the way, if vinegar is good for denim, cat piss must be too), daniel signs a lease, and roy still cares.

Yes, I'll miss this thread. Perhaps it's cool that SuFu is slowly dying, though, when I think of the time I will save! Will there be a Roy x Cone nostalgia thread on denimbros?

[Maynard Friedman]

Thank God this dull, cliquey thread will soon be confined to the Sufu archives and we can focus on better things. I hear there's a 3-month Naked & Famous contest coming up...

^Pffftt. The supercorduroy thread is where it's at

There's a 'afer the comp' thread i think? Come on down!

[Medine]

dkatz, those are fucking great!!

[dkatz]

I've got 14 votes so far. Come on, guys! (the ladies have voted in full already...)

[rnrswitch]

I think the rest are silently protesting because they want their 3 votes to go to the hands down champion. rnr, rnr, rnr.

It is inevitable. Stop fighting it.

Me with that Roy jacket will change the world. Universal healthcare for all, a living wage, Mitt Romney in a body bag...

You've got 14 votes already? I guess we're imported the balloting technique from Uganda? Or was it Zimbabwe?

[dkatz]

I learned some things...

[erk]

I learned some things...

Wtf is that suppOsed to mean?

[rnrswitch]

It means Rnr wins. No need to count the votes. Just get me that jacket and the chonies.

[fardin]

finally voted, but i hate it. there are far to many great ones, in my eyes impossible to have a winner in this. the pants are awesome, and i want to thank those who posted so many nice pics in here.

[ranonranonarat]

i echo fardin's thoughts on this one. 3 has been hard to narrow down but more importantly i think this one was a pretty successful contest with a lot great and interesting stories from all over, coupled with the number of final submission pics.

dkatz is just collecting the rubber tyres he will use to adorn the necks of those who didn't vote for him.

[dkatz]

Moved into my new place this weekend - no internet yet. So, doing the final tally now, in the office.

What do you all think? Who's going to be the popular winner?
