ooe yofukuten & co. denim contest

[aho]

so it seems we're on track so far with the original timeline...if these all ship by aug 1st, we'll most likely all be getting them around the 2nd week of august...did we decide on an official start date, or are we just playing it by ear waiting until everyone gets theirs? given the length of the contest i don't mind starting whenever we get them (just post the start date with newspaper and end accordingly)...a few days of wear shouldn't affect things too much imo

I was realy hoping we could all wait untill everyone has there jeans then pick a start date ( most likely a few days later)

that depends entirely on the Belgian customs department; if they show any sign of brainactivity during that week, i'll most likely receive them at the end of august. Keeping my fingers crossed!

For anyone who has not yet sent payment for the jeans can you please contact me or ooe

Ryo and hiro canot complete the leather patch untill all members have sent payment

[slugabed]

hiro has posted images of my pair being produced, or beginning to be produced.

pretty darn excited.

[slugabed]

i was looking over some pictures and found one taken by hiro portraying me and ryo discussing about this contest.

i believe this was around mid may.

[jyoni]

Let's get started without my friend. I think a normal full order, with swatches in the mail, is the way to go for him.

[slugabed]

i just received a phone call from hiro, and she told me that there will be a surprise for everyone in the contest.

i cant tell the details since its not 100% confirmed, but she will send us an e-mail with specifics in few days or so.

lets patiently wait for it.

[slugabed]

another one posted, believe this will the last one from hiro before its completed

[redragon]

I do like surprises, not gonna deny that

[tsunamiboy85]

[aho]

reminder to everyone to pay up if you haven't already! patch needs to be finalized and we need to find out our surprise!

[SLAB]

I agree, stop procrastinating and shell out those hard earned dollars/euros/pounds

[slugabed]

yes, place those heartily earned money to ooe, its goddamn worth it.

[aho]

who still hasn't paid?

[redragon]

Payment deadline might be a good idea....

[Flash]

There was a deadline but I'm giving these people the benefit of the dought

[mapz]

^stragglers gonna strag. hope you guys can pay up soon.

more teaser/production photos from ryo and hiro, this time via instagram. a nice little detail shot of my pair - the left back pocket! too nice. the photo gives you a good idea of what's to come with that #91, as well.

[--simon--]

My pair are up on the r&h blog today ...... So excited to get my hands on these.

[Flash]

Is that your pair with the lee style bartacks , looks really nice

[--simon--]

Yep also the paint for the wwii arcs

[Flash]

Really looking foward to seeing yours Simon

[aho]

^very cool to see the customs indeed...i ended up going with no frills, wish I'd done something but the patch in itself will be amazing for me...

any word on how many contestants we're short for payment?

[Flash]

Just heard back from ryo and hiro and there is going to ba a small delay

The jeans are now on track to be sjipped on the 10 of next month

not that long amd at least it gives time for the other members to sort out payment

[redragon]

^

Thats not too bad...

[jyoni]

Yep also the paint for the wwii arcs

oooooo......that's a really cool idea simon.

pay up stragglers, let's find out our surprise!

[Unearthed]

Did anyone else go with hickory pocket bags??

[smittybat]

yeah I did.

[aho]

almost august...can't wait to find out our "surprise"...maybe some kind of accessory, prize or hidden customization (print on pocketbags etc.)?????

If the jeans get shipped on the 10th then i would think everyone would have there jeans by the end of the month, so dose september 1st sound ok for a start date ?
