Happy Jeans - Tcb 20s contest thread

...getting close to McD - I hope they won't be suing...

[tigerstrom]

I've had some shit happening in my life the last couple of days so I'm not able to join the contest after all. I'm so gutted but I can't afford it right now. Sorry @volvo240thebest for the inconvenience. 

[Capsicum Fried Meat]

stay strong dude, good luck.

[volvo240thebest]

sorry to hear @tigerstrom, hope for the best! Also @Fooleo pm'ed me to say he won't be able to join. I'll update as time permits.

I'll send the list to Regiment and Inoue on sunday, so there's still a little window for joining anyway, as long as who joins PMs me full name delivery address size and inseam and paypal email right after posting here.

still need to have the definitive size + inseam from @Paul T

I have everything else.

I will ask that the paypal invoice to report size inseam length and suspenders choice, just to be sure there is one extra final check before paying.

I've looked and relooked the list and the xcel file, but you'll never know.

ciao everybody

Are the proto arcs sewn on the same fabric as the pocket bags? It kind of looks like indigo canvas. Not sure if I'll unpick or not.

Also I'm kinda bummed there are so few contestants but the odds are pretty much 1:4 to win a prize so thats awesome haha.

^similar number to the OOE contest

[Bobbo]

I reckon we've got a great committed crew of TCB fanboys to make it a fun ride.

Already have some fun plans in the making.

[nycsurfer530]

I'll be kicking off the contest with a cross country road trip. I'm moving to SF at the end of September and I'm gonna buy a nice camera to document the ride.

Hey all, I'm gonna have to bailout, just dumped a bunch of money to get my car running again so it's not in the cards right now  

 

[Inimitable N!]

Aloha! I'm in! I figured y'all could use a stocky american in this thing and I've been eyeballing the TCB's 201s for a bit... Volvo thanks for cross posting on Denimbro.

19. Inimitable N! - confirmed W40 L39 inches-raw

update and I'd say final list

I'd appreciate if

@KrunkyB1 could provide post soak inseam length

@Inimitable N! could provide post soak inseam length in cm

@aho could provide full delivery and payment details

I'd prefer that all sizing criteria coincide for each and every order, as to avoid confusion.

SO: waist in inches inseam in cm POST SOAK.

At your own risk you're providing different type of measurements. I'll mail back to the sender any horse head that will be sent my way for sizing vendetta purposes!

well, not so much a giant as one might expect but my knuckles do drag from time to time!

actually, my biggest hangup with these was going with the 38 or the 40. based on the comparative differences between the sizes I'd be a 39 but figured I'd be better off sizing up and going with an additional hot/warm soak (or *gasp* a stint in the drier) than hoping to get some additional stretch. plus I truly want to make use of the cinch/buckle as well as throwing on suspenders when inspired. I will be climbing in 'em for work, so a bit of "roominess" won't hurt there either.

length is based on wanting a definite cuff, much like Inoue's initial pics... I'll make sure to get measurements back to @volvo240thebest and the group! 

[aho]

How we lookin?!

[volvo240thebest]

hey @Aho

funny I just sent an email to Regiment Store now to ask an update.

I've sent the full list exactly a week ago and never heard back. last I've heard from Inoue was two or three days ago and he still didn't receive anything.

If I was in Manila I'd go straight to flog Ed's big ass now! Seriously though they've just opened a new shop so they may be busy.

Anyhoo I'll make sure to torture them with daily emails til something happens...

[nycsurfer530]

As long as we get them before the September 1st start date otherwise I'll need to pm Ed a different address. Shouldn't take too long to make 20 pairs of jeans though. 

[edmond]

We have around 8-9 people here who wants to join!

He must have meant 18-19 rather than 8-9?

Or 8-9 non sufu participants not on the list?

Probably the latter

I think he meant 89 people, due to a sudden surge in interest.

[Inimitable N!]

this is going to sound silly, but in a perfect world we'd all get together for a group picture after wearing our 20's for a year.

of course if someone is a "photoshop ninja", we could fake it, but it certainly wouldn't be nearly as fun
