Hey guys would i be able to join in on this competition?

I JUST ordered a pair of IH 666S OD. May over-dyed denim be included in this competition? I placed my order on the 6th and the jeans should arrive any day now.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah you're able to. Thetre are already some ODs in this so why not more of them?

[simon626]

I just went over this thread again and noticed that i did indeed miss the cutoff join date.....

Wanna allow me in since i'm the only one with a pair of 666 OD besides Beatle?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

last day of joining is February 1st, 2011

So enough time.

or did we change it?

Apologies Kiya, sometimes I update the thread in a rush from my iPhone, due to work and family commitments. I will edit all major announcements to make sure it is correct.

The denim is 21oz with the weft died black, which actually makes the difference from an oerdye, i think.

Stand up for the Champions!

Construction is second to none.

Presoak fit:

Soaking right now.

Great!!!

I'll post pictures of my new 666OD as soon as i receive them in the mail. I'm really glad to be a part of this competition. I've been a loyal IH fan ever since my first pair of IH. I've really admired samurais too though and this contest will definitely be cool to compare fading characteristics within a similar time frame.

Plus i love having a reason for wearing the same pants every day.

...Not that anyone asks.

[beatle]

Atzec - excellent pair, should be really interesting to see how they fade / are the blue warp & black weft ?

Simon - changed ur mind ? thought you said you didn't dig the od fade and wanted to get a pair of the indigos ?

[Megatron1505]

Atzec, the Black Pigs look amazing, should be a strong competitor I think.

[Atzec]

^thanks

blue warp & black weft ?

exactly. the blue dye on the warp is very intense though. depends on the light, but sometimes they look like black, sometimes like a very dark blue.

Simon - changed ur mind ? thought you said you didn't dig the od fade and wanted to get a pair of the indigos ?

I decided to try something new and exciting. Blue jeans are common and i still love them a lot but im down to switch it up a bit. No doubt i wanna win this contest. No one has seen a faded pair of 666 od yet.

My fingers are crossed and hopes are high. Lets have a good contest!

[ThinFinn]

simply amazing!...+!

megatron might want to re-format the dates to mm/dd/yyyy or spell it out (February 1st, 2011) so people aren't confused... I know we're not all americans but yeah...

[Megatron1505]

Already started....I'll spell it out so Europeans don't start complaining.

And my EDC

[laxlife1234]

I will be ordering the SG's tomorrow once I get money in my paypal account from moneypak, just have to wait since their stupid fucking cards are misleading, so I spent 20 minutes one the phone with someone who should not have a job,..

So to anyone who wants to buy a moneypak and wants to refill it.. the card says you can, but you CANT. Sorry, I am just pissed off.. .but I am enjoying all the pics here! Great fits on all of you! and great pics!

Contestant #7 throwing a couple jabs:

[Megatron1505]

James great fit on those Sams.

nooblet, your 710's should stretch out a bit after about 30 wears. Louis Vuitton...hmmm...

PP, some nice contrast creeping in already.

[dant87]

Peter - Thats nice fading for such an early stage in the game! When did you start on yours?

[lenn]

i transferred the money to obbi good

also, the only pair of dc4001's from the iron heart army checking in:

[Atzec]

black pig, post soak. they´re still very stiff and need to strech back a bit, as you can see:

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Backpockets look quite far apart but else they look great! (although it's not that easy to see all details on this "black pig")

[ThinFinn]

great fit there atzec...

Nice wallet James!

[Megatron1505]

Really looking forward to seeing the evo on those pigs.
