Warehouse Competition Poll (Part 2) - DD-1003xx / 1946

[SLAB]

Voted! I'm in no matter how long the wait

[JDelage]

Well, I already have a pair of 1003XX (1945) that I have not been able to start yet. I don't think it makes sense for me.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

But these will have the new Warehouse denim. Your 1945 probably have the standard Memphis cotton denim?! (if they are this model: https://www.ware-house.co.jp/?pid=109364283)

 

edit: or do you have this pair: https://item.rakuten.co.jp/mix8699/10004116/ ?

thanks for organizing fellas. i voted "longer time needed", but the intent is that i'm willing to wait as long as we need to allow everybody to participate!

[JDelage]

@beautiful_FrEaK -  I have the "WHPA-17SS003", so the ones in your first listing.

To me they're all new fabric...  :-)

[dudewuttheheck]

I voted to start now, but if we have to wait, I'm still in. This will be my first Warehouse pair and I'm good with the general details so I'm pretty happy no matter what at this point.

A look at the denim after a bit of wear 

Creases look like they have had a bit of help but the denim looks nice and grainy 

[SLAB]

reminds me of the Memphis denim somehow; looking forward to fading this new denim fabric 

[JRendon02]

I'm ready to go now or I can wait until more people are ready.

[bartlebyyphonics]

@Flash - reckon they borrowed @volvo240thebest's Dremel... great to hear that many posting above are willing to wait - I put myself in that category also: voted ready to go, but very very aware that pause buttons are healthy things to have access too...

[MJF9]

Definitely happy to wait til we can make this a full team event... I'm in irrespective of start date... plenty of jeans to wear in the meantime...

Also happy to go with longer seam if the standard means Sufu'ers who need the longer would otherwise be excluded... Ed said he'll hem so all good...

[edmond]

boys

 

well do the hemming for free! we just need to know the final length

and if it comes in RAW how do we hem it? let us know

 

 

ok warehouse is bugging me on the details !

 

 

help! xoxo edie

[edmond]

lnger insseam means maybe around a 34 inch post soak and dryer?  or what? i need to tell the kids at WH

[edmond]

start on JANUARY 1 2021 what do you think guys? ship out in november to december?

 

let me know

[dudewuttheheck]

I know generally where I would need it hemmed before soak so I will happily take advantage of the free hemming. Shipping out November/December is fine too. I'm down for earlier too, but I can do either.

[SuperJackle]

I’m not sure I was ever counted as “in”, but since I voted in the other thread I thought it responsible to let it be known I won’t be participating. Look forward to the contest folks!

[bartlebyyphonics]

Hi @edmond!!!

sorry this poll was set up a bit later than hoped; my fault

however with 51 voters (when 66 voted before) and with the margins of preference some things seem pretty clear:

Definite confirmation of model: dd1003xx 1946

Special patch request: Can we have a revisiting of the '95-'96 patch (of two horse pulling apart jeans) with green ink for the Lot No. and W and L numbers

Yes to Delay 

...  I think that what you propose below seems most excellent. Are there other who find this a problem? If so, please say...

Raw & Inseam: My sense from the vote for Raw and Standard Inseam is that most people just want the standard model inseam length, just raw and not subject to a one wash treatment. Your offer of a free hem is very generous though.

Is having a blanket provision of standard inseam excluding the long-legged brethren and sisterhood? I know I was pretty clear what that vote choice meant in my response to Unders... (My personal interest is in retaining the original WH hem stitching and their standard inseam post-wash measurements seem basically the same as a 34" leg of a washed LVC which is hyper fine for me - and I stand a 6'2" so at the taller end of the group, but don't mind no break style - so I would be asking for standard model inseam length, just raw and not subject to a one wash treatment). Is there an interest for you to carry a longer inseam in Signet for the pairs outside the comp. here? 

The vote as it stands is currently (51 votes in...) over 70% in favour of standard inseam (and 76% in favour of raw) so it seems pretty conclusive?

I wonder if others would want to chime in on this in response to the number please as I clearly have a personal agenda? I am just the poll setter and feel out of my depth on this one as I feel like I would happily let my style choices/preferences override inclusiveness...

I personally prefer the standard inseam length as I’d prefer to have the WH original hem.

Aye, happy to go with the poll outcome too. The green ink will be a very nice touch. 

[wmb]

34" post soak would work -- is that the standard WH length?  32 post soak would probably not work for me

[Docxm]

I'd prefer 34" post soak as well.

I'd also prefer we start earlier (fall?) but I'm still in for whenever!

[lemmywinks]

back into raw denim after laying off for a few years. happy with whatever the forum consensus is! Only strong opinion is for the regular inseam.

32" / 82cm is the regular post soak figure for this model as the standard, yes: similar to a raw LVC 34" leg...

[erk]

I think I’ll still be in for this. I’ve got to sell some things though. 

[lemmywinks]

I'm starting to think it makes more sense to start later... Not much to achieve fade wise if you're just at home all day.

[wmb]

Apologies, but another fit/sizing question:  is the '46 sizing similar to the '47 (as measured by S&S)?  I am still interested, but these would be my first pair of Warehouse

[unders]

@wmb

Fortunately the WH website has comprehensive measurements: https://www.ware-house.co.jp/?pid=137031000

Albeit the competition pair are looking like they’ll be raw rather than one wash. I expect they will shrink to the one wash size(ish), but we should probably confirm that with Ed & Warehouse closer to the time. 

[edmond]

Honestly between shit like this and his odd support of our Head Cheeto in charge president I'm considering just getting a pair of the normal 25th anniversary jeans...
