Ooe Yofukuten: 2016 Contest Interest Thread

[lsaylor]

aho, Love the fit px. I would love to get a fit like that. The denim looks soft and drapes nicely. I hope I can achieve something close to that. I am assuming that is normal waist +2?

im 6' and the OA02 that I have is 31" and I do a single 1" cuff.  I dont like breaks or stacks so yea...

Indeed, waist +2 at that time...I've gained some weight since then though! 

[lsaylor]

any updates ?

[mrsmiff]

any updates ?

 

Deposit was paid, and I'm going to see Ryo & Hiro tomorrow, so I'll find out more then.

[aho]

^Say hello to Ryo-san and Hiro-san for me please! Wish I could make it out to Inspiration LA as I told them I would be, but have to miss out after all...

[ironheartfan123]

is OOE going to be at Inspiration LA?

[aho]

^Not to participate with a booth (at least I don't think so), but they'll be there for the festivities

[mrsmiff]

They're just walking the show.  

 

I'm going to try to meet up with them there, if timing allows for it.

Every day I'm reminded it's not April 1st! Wishful thinking but hopefully we can get these mid-March, it's been a long wait on my end (Haven't bought/worn new jeans in over a year; Nothing against my OA01XX's of course, but I'm sure all denim heads can relate)!

[guthriegking]

I am in the same boat as you aho (havent had anything new since my eternals last january). Getting this started couldnt come quick enough.

[mrsmiff]

Things are moving along on their end - I'll request some photo updates for you guys!

[tigerstrom]

That's great to hear! ^

i had a dream about these jeans that other night.  I saw on OOE's instagram that there is a S&S/Ooe OA02 collab and that set the subconscious in motion.  NEED PICZ 

[aho]

Would be great to see pictures of Ryo and Hiro's visit to the states too since it's somewhat related!

[aho]

And so it begins!

nice to see another contest running.

I still have my last custom pair other than the contest pair very dark in indigo, with QA02-XX and collaboration pair with barn stormer untouched...

at the end i only have only a pair of legs...

Cool!  I like the red selvedge ID

[Broark]

I'm really excited for this! Looking forward to some closeups of the denim.

Also having my OA02XX's out for repairs makes me sad that I don't have a pair from Ryo and Hiro to wear right now!

[givemefive]

Can't wait.

 

 

Are we still on track for 4/1 ? I don't know how long it takes to make 20 jeans. Hopefully not too long!

[aho]

^As far as I know! Hopefully we'll make the April 1st start date, but that'd probably be the first time in denim contest history if there are no delays and we start on time!    

[mrsmiff]

Can't wait.

Last time I checked in, we were on track!  

 

I need more legs, guys. Got too many denim!

[whackedout]

Its a joke.

[Broark]

Here we go!

^  Love the patch!  Dag would be happy with it, if he wore jeans ;-)

[mrsmiff]

I came here to post that same image but you guys are too quick for me.  

[aho]

hahahaha too damn excited! Especially since that is my patch! 

[tigerstrom]

Cool! Looking forward to this!

[aho]

I plan to do a ton of Insta updates throughout the contest...Any ideas on a good tag? #ooecontest ?
