Max Power 1,648,807 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) As there will be no official superfuture thread for the upcoming Denim World Championship, I figured it made sense to create this thread (hopefully Megatron approves). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All the detailed Information can be found here : http://denimworldchampionship.com Divisions 7 – 10oz – Flyweight 11 – 14oz – Lightweight 15 – 18oz – Middleweight 19 – 21oz – Heavyweight 21oz + – Super Heavyweight Division --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Winners will be put forward to a final showdown to compete to become the undisputed Champion.

I'll try to keep a list with the contestants and their pair - so PM me if I forget you and I'll add you to this very first post. Cheers - and now choose your pairs. There's also still the 30 day amnesty wear rule going on - so better be quick! Edit: I might as well start the list by putting me on No.1 1.

beautiful_FrEaK 1,662,840 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 Still interested but still not decided with which jeans I will enter. Most likely lightweight...but maybe middleweight 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Power 1,648,807 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 What pairs are you thinking of? If I got it right, it is possible to enter with two pairs, right? In that case I might add my Samurai 710 BKB to the middlweight division. In any case, if yomeone magaes to find a decent flyweight Jeans, he might have good chances of winning the division championship - there's not too many Options ans fans of that weight out there. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beautiful_FrEaK 1,662,840 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 Denime 66XX (LW), Fob F151 (LW), Denimbridge 3rd (LW) or Denime 25th (MW)... And I know which one you want me to wear Yep, Flyweight is pretty rare. If the limits would have been up to 11oz, some more LVC pairs would qualify 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
setterman 912,213 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 Signed up for light weight, and have a pair of LVC 551ZXX I'm considering along with four other Japanese brands. Tough to decide because I don't feel like dropping another $200+ on a pair of jeans, and I'm pretty happy with my current rotation (WH 1003XX, Fullcount 0105, and four other pairs I wear when I please). 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Easy solution - you wear the Denime 25th and I get the 66XX, which you outgrew anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so maybe someone can correct that for me. I registered lightweight I asked Gavin about that a few weeks ago and he said, that the weight doesn't get rounded up, so even 14,9 oz will be lightweight. So I assume you're in the right Division (I already put you there because I figured it'd be the regular FH denim).

Connors Sewing Factory? haha all good! I've yet to see any updates on the Ooe collab's but I'm guessing it'll be months until we see any movement on that end, as they've been focusing on non-denim items as of late. Turns out the Fortyniner's will be too expensive for me however (41040 yen!), so I'm likely to go with the Freewheelers 601xx for the contest... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

louisbosco 325,679 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 awesome flo. you're fast! Don't forget about me! 21+ heavyweight div. iron heart 66uhr. What pairs are you thinking of?

In any case, if yomeone magaes to find a decent flyweight Jeans, he might have good chances of winning the division championship - there's not too many Options ans fans of that weight out there. you mean we can enter with two pairs? do they have to be in a different division or can it be the same? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Power 1,648,807 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 ^Gavin should answer this, but I think I heard that somewhere. After all, it's your own "fault" if you split the wearing time on too much pairs. But then, it's also against the idea of a 2 year contest, so I think I'll stick with the one pair. Added you guys and some Information about the prizes and judges. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broark 5,706 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 I'm a bit torn on what I'm going to wear. What I'm considering: Ooe Yofukuten OA02XX, Fullcount special run 1101, Stevenson 714 (new cut, I think I read somewhere that's what it'll be called), Pure Blue Japan XX-009. They're all right round 14 oz. which I can easily wear year-round here, just a matter of actually deciding. And I'd like to be number 10 if that's alright. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bradl 904 Report post Posted February 26, 2015 I'm not 100% decided yet but I'm thinking about entering the Denim Tux division with my new 20 oz. Flat Head 2111s and a Flat Head 7002W denim shirt. This sounds like a dope setup, been mulling doing the tux, but can really only wear A shirt for a few months in the year. But add me to that list, still haven't decided but will be in Tue heavyweight for sure. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
