Heavyweight Denim Championships 2013 - 2015 - Official Thread

[albertabeef]

Ill be ridling into work in my jeans seeing as at 6am it's still normally pretty chilly up here in Calgary. For the ride home at 3:30 they'll be in my bag though.

Sweat makes them fade faster - that's what I'm going to be telling myself this summer when I'm walking 5km in 34 degree heat with 85% humidity.

Portable sauna with complimentary zwer fragrance! Ill have to wait and see how my samurais breath first.

I just converted your temperature to Fahrenheit and there is no way in hell I'm riding my bike in 25 oz. jeans in that heat. It would amount to washing my jeans in sweat every time. Haha. I'm sure there will be a good number of days in the low 80s that I can handle though. Also, depending on what the ByBeatle looks like, I may end up in 17s. We shall see.

Good to make both of your acquaintance, by the way.

[Megatron1505]

Do you ladies belong in the Heavyweight Competition

[Jared_Lee]

I don't belong anywhere. I just slip through the cracks.

And with 18 months to wear the jeans seven days a week, I don't think forcing the discomfort of summer wear will be necessary.

[Megatron1505]

All day, every day for me. If you're gonna be a bear......

[Jared_Lee]

Mega, where you live, you average a high of 21 Celsius in July and August. I'm dealing with 28.5 average. Just sayin'.

Oh, and I know nothing about being a bear. "I wanna be a boat."

[Megatron1505]

Are you saying that the UK is not known for it's tropical climate?

[Jared_Lee]

How dare I, right?

[Megatron1505]

Exactly, you have offended my honour as a loyal subject of her majesty the Queen

[albertabeef]

Just got confirmation my jeans arrived in Vancouver from Japan today. Should only be a few more days till they're on my doorstep. I feel like a four year old on Christmas Eve.

I hope you learn to swim.

[Mike On Autopilot]

My girlfriend really wants to compete. Should I let her?

[Megatron1505]

Undoubtedly yes, so does my 6 year old..... and I'm not sure that I can stop him.

[garden gnomes in space]

Oh shit, Tommy's gonna out fade all of you. Im calling it now

[swiss-jeansfreak]

I'm wondering myself how easy the comp will work out for me when started in April. After my old rule over the last 35 years I'm usually breaking in a new stiff jeans at the beginning of the colder season around September.

And teriffic that Tommy wil join us

[zwer]

The wee Tron will have to start with jeans a foot too long to accommodate his growth or have extra panels added like his 634s.

I'm sewing elastic into the waist band to account for my growth spurt.

[spudboyblues]

And more news - for all of those denim heads out there who have not committed their legs just yet...

Watch this spot - something huge is about to happen - if you are interested in a

tapered slim fit - and 17oz raw Japanese Selvage line denim made in Okayama

sounds like what you´ve been waiting for - be patient....

Damn you all! Just how slim tapered are we talking...Between this and the cap I might just have to say fuck my fairly recent purchase and do this competition! urgh. Details. Want.

[louisbosco]

haha. yall complain about the weather like as though it's as bad as what we have here in the equator. at least yall get to go through seasons. i'll be spending the whole two years in a place where its almost 35 degrees every day with a high humidity. :wacko2:

[Do7]

hahah where you from?

[louisbosco]

SG. but i'll be in perth by 2014. so then again i've have to brave the 40 degrees summer.

[Do7]

haha not too bad..im from malaysia man..

i know what you talking about..

its always hot and wet here..

[beatle]

Damn you all! Just how slim tapered are we talking...Between this and the cap I might just have to say fuck my fairly recent purchase and do this competition! urgh. Details. Want.

soon...and slim tapered with enough room around seat ..for all those bicycle people and all those who want to sit and not show crack

[beatle]

oh, and to all those weather comments-after having moved to the uk I am waiting for global warming to happen here..I miss wearing jawns and getting sweaty

[Davil]

^ Jealous! I want to move to the UK so bad...its the only place in Europe where I can speak the native tongue!

[Danny @ Rivet & Hide]

I love all this climate nationalism. "My country has 120% humidity 13 months of the year and I can wear 50 oz denim no sweat" "Yeah but, no but, mine reaches 1000 degrees celcius in summertime which nukes your boring lack of seasons and is a much greater challenge"

More please.....

[Megatron1505]

Fantastic coined phrase "climate nationalism".

[JHC76]

Well, it is 6:30 am here and 2 degrees F. Since I am a scientist I can actually convert that to Celsius..and it converts to really damn cold....or -17 C. I need my MBBs!!!

[SwedeAlex]

soon...and slim tapered with enough room around seat ..for all those bicycle people and all those who want to sit and not show crack

Oh! I´m so tempted even though I have seen nothing yet! I like the room in the thigh-thing alot. I do NOT need another pair but might just cop if right...
