Per ed's post, here are his one wash measurements, BiG style:

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^going by that the jeans shrink 2 sizes under tag size? and will stretch back out I guess

[volvo240thebest]

those look good to me. front rise of  +/- 29.7cm  on w36 is my sweet spot, not too high not too low. waist will be snug to start with, but will stretch with wear..

looking forward to torture my balls in the august heat with these pants!

Damn, I could fit into the 34, and that seems pretty slim. Tell me I am missing something so I don't regret joining.

do it.  $200 bones, a swell group of individuals, guaranteed glory for all....

[bradl]

Committed to too much denim at this point, and need too many tools.

 

Wish I seen those measurements a few days back. Will enjoy watching this though.

^^^Though the waist seems smaller, the rise and thigh on the TCB appear to be at least, if not more full than the Trophy you were wearing for the Dirt Dash. I thought I caught on the NoKipple thread that the Dirt was a more full cut then you were used to...for what that's worth.

That being said...the price is right, the list of participants is outstanding, and I say jump in.

Machine wash bro and dryer. But you guys will get it raw so if you think the measurements small just do a cold soak unless all of you wnats it in washed state

Yeah, I've never really factored in thigh, so always ignore that. But that's a full inch in the thighs than my R400, which is my loosest cut.

good to hear.  That means a machine wash and hang dry might not shrink the waist as much..

It's usually something I'm not too concerned about either unless the sizing is real slim. I thought it worth mentioning here since I noticed a huge difference in how my jeans felt going almost a full inch large in the thigh from my Samurai s5000 to Trophy's standard cut.

Alright guys, we've decided on a patch and I'll have the ordering details up in a few hours! We'll be opening up orders through July 7th as the deadline; this should give everyone some extra time to gather funds but of course the earlier we get things in, the earlier TCB is able to construct our pairs!

[erk]

So my good buddy registered ok SF so he could do this contest, but he's pending confirmation from an admin. His username will be

Barenderson

We should hear from him as soon as he's confirmed.

[gratefulmelon]

Awesome! Can't wait to get this contest started. So, is the general consensus to order tts or one size up? I've seen measurements but still unsure of stretch.

Great stuff Aho! We wanna see that patch!

[fellini_esque]

Hahaha I know what the patch looks like and you guys will not be disappointed! But you're gonna have to wait for aho or Inoue for the reveal

[aho]

gratefulmelon, Inoue-san says they'll stretch 1-1.5inches in the waist depending on if you wear a belt etc. But yes, consensus is order TTS or up one for a looser fit. My waist measures 33 inches where I will wear the jeans and I'll be ordering a 33!

 

Can't wait to get this rolling everyone, I hope we can get them earlier than what we have slated because my Ooe's are beat to pulp right now haha

[gratefulmelon]

Sounds good. 36" it is! now I've just gotta figure out a way to sneak this pair past my wife.

[aho]

^It usually helps when you have a fair amount of other pairs..."I've ALWAYS had these, just never got around to wearing them!"

[gratefulmelon]

I use that one often. "This pair? You don't remember when I got these the other month on that sale I told you about?"

At this point she just nods and acts like she's paying attention when I talk about denim.

[aho]

Drumroll please!......

 

I present to you, the official contest patch! (this will be on leather!)

 

 

Congrats to our own fellini for his entry!

I wonder if we could get a modded/checkered pinstripe volvo in there? haha just thinking out loud; I think it looks great as is, and to be honest all entries were spectacular! Thanks again to those who submitted!

[garden gnomes in space]
