[Gnob]

And happy new year to you too aho, and to everyone else!

[swiss-jeansfreak]

Yeah! Happy New Year to everyone with great raw denim experiences

[beautiful_FrEaK]

And a 'Happy New Year' from me! Hopefully we can start this year soon with a nice pair of new jeans

[swiss-jeansfreak]

Yeah would be super great. I think I have to switch to some newer items since my office people are trying to kill me if I still wear my old Denime pants and Lee Storm Rider 101-LJ blanket lined denim jacket. They're looking pretty rough meanwhile. But I still love them more and more as wilder thes look.

what's everyone wearing in the meanwhile? still addicted to my SC66's as beaters but break out the 15th Anniversary WH's once in a while...Rough not being able to wear denim to work, but I'm ready for a fresh pair with a lower rise than all the repros i'm on...holiday/winter weight has been painful for me...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Flo and me wearing the S710XX until this contests finally start We haven't heard news from Samurai over the holidays though

[moykky]

I'm wearing mostly my ol' trusty 5507 from Analchemist

And somedays Ooe's 02 and 01 cuts.

[Obbigood]

still going through with Sam 500JX for HDC.

And added recently IH 634S Raw for RAWWAR contest

All these, with the heart still awaiting eagerly for this Sam's arrival....

how dare you guys forget me.... i wont post any pictures!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

welll...you still haven't so I "forgot" you on purpose

[kayodic]

ya know that i gave you 3 handicap weeks and let the boys have some fun first!

[arcarsenal]

Got the Left Field contest chinos to satiate my contest cravings while throwing my 1000xx and Ooes in the mix. Holiday fat has me too self conscious to wear the eternals....

But I really want some samurais!!!!

[lilfatsupra]

flathead f310 over here. you guys thought I was crazy, but I took a gander into the future and saw that the contest would not start as scheduled.

[rockon99]

just bought black carhartt double-fronts. been wanting a pair forever just never did it. i think i'll be wearing those exclusively till the contest starts. interested to see how they wear out.

[swiss-jeansfreak]

Wanted to switch to black overdied IH heavy weight denim jacket and Strike Gold 23 oz pants. But when I was looking to my old Denime contest pants and the Lee Storm Rider 101-LJ blanket lined denim jacket, it almost broke my heart. And a little bit later I switched back to my old stuff, although meanwhile in pretty rough condition!!

Ruedi, what about repair-jobs on your "old" stuff? Or is that not part of your religion?

I like your extremly faded stuff, but with some serious fixing you´d show respect to your colleagues AND save the fabric from falling apart!

[Maynard Friedman]

Sporting some underwear may also spare Ruedi's colleagues from embarrassment, especially with those crotch rips!

[swiss-jeansfreak]

No worries mates. Of course I 'll always fixing the tears and rips on the bad places.

So no sporting underwear visible. It's more about the general wild and grim look of those pants with strong patina and character.

And my friends have to follow this evolution since February 22 2010 with constant daily wear of them and still never washed so far.

And of course this is quite difficult to understand for them.

But I like to see the falling apart evolution on them at less dangerous areas.

At the moment the right front pocket is getting in poorer condition with large inside holes and the cuffed areas are developing large holes too.

And a part of the left back pocket has separeted from the butt area.

Although posted them many times I can put some new updates of those pants soon if not too boring for you
