I believe the confirmation auto-email is not working, but mega manually puts it all down in a spreadsheet. If you've paid, you're in.

Fair enough. Who do I contact about my entry number?

Loosening up my Left Field cone mills jeans the past few days.

Decided to join last minute, will be wearing a pair of Oni X Blue in Green, 612XX, 16.5oz. How many participants this round?

[mpukas]

I just paid my entry fee. I'm planning on wearing the IH-888-NT - they just arrived today. I still need to soak and wash them to see how they fit post-shrink, but based on initial raw measurements and fit pics on the IH forum, I think these will be good for me.

My CSF 1937 are too light to get any crazy fades, but I don't know of any faded examples of this fabric so this will be a fun journey anyway.

Light fabrics have a really fun, unique fading of their own! Digging that cut as well.

Quick shots of my Freewheelers 1947; the denim starts off a bit lighter, more like a dark blue than the almost black of one-washed jeans. Not sure how many times they wash these; the 1951's are a lighter blue than this though:

just paid. Joining (just received, hopefully they will fit) with IH PIH10ANT

I originally planned to enter with Flat Head K011 but I wasn't connecting with them for whatever reason and decided to change at the last minute to a pair of 1001. Here they are with one soak and 5 wears.  Should be a interesting and fun contest with all the different denim participating. 

[longshanks]

I'm in! Gonna be rocking the Tender 129's!

Hey all, (especially @bartlebyyphonics ) 

I meant to have these done four or five days ago but I've been busy.  Last night and tonight I got to business, sent my $20 and lo & behold, I have an entry:

18.5oz Kuroki Mills by Jorge Pantalones.

 

and a quick soak before I wear them tomorrow:

 

I made these along with 12 other pair.  Here are a few process photos:

 

Cutting table chaos

 

Setting the run & fell, then finishing it on a Kansai dbl. needle chainstitch machine

 

My beloved Singer 69-8.  I honestly wasn't sure if it would plow through all ten layers of this 18.5oz denim but it handled it with aplomb.

Contest hasn't even started yet and I've already had a blast.    I'll get some pics of them on tomorrow when it's light out.

Cheers!

Ordered a pair of tcb 60’s from Inoue with a hem job. Ordered a week ago so hopefully they’ll arrive soon. If they don’t fit right I have a pair of lvc ‘47’s on the way as well but hoping for the tcb. Anyone got a clue as to how long it usually takes to the EU? I’m based in Sweden.

All my orders from Inoue have arrived in Sweden about 4-5 days after he posted them.

That’s good to hear! Haven’t heard anything yet so I don’t know if he’s gotten them in the mail yet though.

We should just have 1 contest thread.

If you send him an email asking for the tracking number he'll give it.

Think it's been split in two so that people who only want to see pictures can view that thread, and any discussion is posted here. Can make things hard to follow if it's not strictly followed and posts are not referenced

Sent an email earlier today. Thanks!

[Spiraltoy]

Emailed Inoue-san Friday regarding my TCB60’s but no answer yet. We’ll see when they’ll arrive. In case they don’t fit i started on a pair of LVC ‘47’s today. One hot soak and a 40C wash.
