Announcement: HWDC Round 2 2013/15

[darkstar2q9]

just making sure i really want to be in this competition this time, i just want to reconfirm that i can still preorder the jeans? as well as be in the competition?!?!?

thanks for the info

* The pre-order date for the special edition "Mega Beatle Buster", 25oz jeans from Iron Heart will now close at midnight on Christmas Eve.

On another note, I'm pretty bummed about the month change - the girlfriend and I were planning to go camping on March 2nd to break the Busters in. She's also bummed she can't join, haha.

[Megatron1505]

Less than a month of wear is the key. If your jawns are new, and you wanna get a jump on the competition, camp away my man.

As for your lady, check out the IH-555's, Minitron loves hers.

[Mike On Autopilot]

Nah brah I ain't tryna be a scrub, it would have just been cool. I've got plenty of denim laying around ready to be worn, as I'm sure most if not all of us do, too.

As for her she's a pretty curvy lady so we had to get her pair of Railcars custom made. Judging by the trouble this whole run is, a custom pair of iron hearts is out of the question. Thanks for the heads up though! She would, however, be totally down for a women's denim competition. Make it happen, Megatron. You know you can. And want to.

official date - fools day 2013 - fools day 2015....

[Highvoltage]

I know this probably the best place...but would it be crazy to get a pair of 634s, in addition to the contest pair I've already committed to, just to see which fit will be better for daily/24 month wear?

(I obviously read the rules, and only one pair would be for the contest)

[beatle]

whatever makes you happy ...

Crosspost from the Steel Feather (MiJ) Official thread:

Confirmed: "HWDC2" coupon code is now working at the check out of Rivet and Hide. 15 % off on SF0121 jeans, as well as any other item you pick up at the same time; so if you want a high quality belt or new wallet with your jeans, or even a great shirt, then now's the time to get them.

Looking forward to see what people can do to my Steel Feather denim in the Superheavy category of the next round of Heavyweight Denim Championship.

They can be bought at this contestant exclusive price at: Rivet & Hide (London)

(Above: The slightly unclear typography on the patch says: Comfort & Durability, and Hand Made in Okayama. This writing becomes more readable with wash and treatment with leather oil.)

[darkstar2q9]

im about to pull the trigger on the IH deposit, just wanted to get some input on a choosing a size....

i currently wear the 666 XHS in a 30 so if the measurements end up the same as whats predicted would the 32 be the way to go?

[tong SF]

2 more to go. can't wait to see the flasher!

[Megatron1505]

Darkstar, I would go with a 32. You can always change once the measurements are published anyway.

We should have full print samples of the flasher by the end of the week, exciting times :-)

[darkstar2q9]

Trigger pulled my pre order is in!!!

[Megatron1505]

Many thanks, one more pre order and its time to get flashed.

[beatle]

okay , flash time

[beatle]

and just to make sure - we have officially hit 40 ...thanks for making this happen , still need 10 more for actual production..

[JHC76]

Awesome. I really hope we get this last 10!!! I'll see if I can recruit some friends into the world of raw denim.

[whackedout]

That flasher is awesome, can't wait till it goes comes out and add it to my collection!

These are sick. I'm going to hopefully order a pair for the contest but how long will the code work for?

[spitfiredealer]

Might have to frame that flasher.

10 more to go!! Come on come on people

[beatle]

random...25oz..makes you fly

[chazychaz]

Hye mega, correct me if i'm wrong but i believe this IH competition pair are not limited to 50 pairs right? Last pre order date should be before christmas so i'll probably grab a pair when year end bonus already in.

[beatle]

yap, correct

[tong SF]

I just noticed that on the flasher "W" in "IHXBXHWDCX25OZ" is at the wrong place.

[Quoise1203]

Not if it stands for "Heavyweight Denim Championship of the World" as in the original contest.

[Megatron1505]

Quoise is correct......I think.

This weekend there is a meeting of minds at HWDCHQ ( Beatles house), where we will make more plans (drink much beer) about what the next two years holds.

Blurry pictures to follow.....

[Highvoltage]

Awesome design on the flasher, I can't wait to duke it out with these jeans!

[tong SF]

I just saw the different comparing to the patch.

[akka225]

just curious since i didn't see any disclosures in this thread: is anyone who is participating in this contest or threat employed in any way by Iron Heart or its associated/parent companies?

jw, thanks!

[Megatron1505]

No they are not, but if they had a job going I would take it
