We just love the 17 oz denim...it's like a lucky number !

And it feel's ohhhh soooo gooood

[denimdestroyedmylife]

17oz denim means bigger nuts and a real man... that is why i haven't bought the 17oz jeans yet. Little nuts and not a real man.

hahahaha! beatle would beg to differ...

another female sf'er

...

why does there have to be a point?

Hm, good point.

I agree. Something about the weight and texture of this denim really appeals to me. I wouldn't say I prefer it to the normal weight jeans like Sugar Cane 1947 and the lighter feel of my RB1 and RB6 jeans, but at the moment I am very pleased with them.

They're on their way tomorrow! Gordon was sooo cool about it. He didn't have a chance to calculate the balance I owed, so he said he'll ship em out and bill me later, saying he knew I was good for it! Now that's customer service.

Getting size 29 by the way. He said they measured out to 31", which works perfect for me.

anyone joined the contest to win the wallet they're giving out?

[denimdestroyedmylife]

is it too late?

i've filled it out, but i'm scared to take it to the post office b/c i don't see (can't read) the address on the card and they are gonna give me a hassle, i'm sure. mufuggas.

[mizanation]

[mizanation]

just ordered a pair from BiG in size 28.. a little late on the bandwagon, I know.

sized down twice so I'm really hoping they fit..

Ott if they're too small for ya, i'll possibly trade my 29s. Mine fit fine right now, but I always like to go a little snugger.

[Ott]

sure. We can talk in a couple weeks once mine get here.

[Boaz]

I've also just purchased a pair of the S5000. I was going to wash them (or soak) before I get them hemmed to get a better idea of true length. Is this the normal couse of action for these jeans? I don't want to cuff them.

[poly800rock]

.......................

how tall are you that you don't need to cuff those?!

[denimdestroyedmylife]

2 yards exactly

the angle makes me look taller

[beatle]

Samurai just put special soap on the market....

For those who are intersted..
