Word of Mouth - Contest Feeler Thread

[aho]

Not in a rush at all, but wondering if anyone else's shipping is showing an estimated 16 more days til delivery?

[Broark]

Mine don’t have an estimated delivery date yet, USPS doesn’t usually until it’s in their network. Thinking they’ll land mid next week.

[bartlebyyphonics]

for me: ‘label created, not yet in system’

[Alec Leamas]

Mine = Exported from origin country.

As I'm only in the UK and it's usually a 24-48 hour job from export to arrival through a customs location here I'm expecting it to change tomorrow.

We will stand by the start date of January 17th.

But I promise I won't start wearing my pair until everyone has their pair in possession. I want to give you guys a fair chance to beat me 😉😅

AI doesnt really ‘get it’. But I tried anyway…

Mine is showing this Tuesday as delivery, but it is "Processing Exception, Regional Weather Delay" because I am in Los Angeles...

The addition of “crust” into the contest lexicon seems a good AI contribution. Not sure how to work it in but I bet it will be appropriate for at least a pair or two out there…

While you kids play with names, THE EAGLE HAS LANDED!

[edit] just tried on. Exactly as I expected, the pre soak fit is already good, meaning that I will just soak them, as suggested but the man himself.
Beautiful pair of jeans, great everyday cut, not too loose not too slim, just right.

There is an interesting white dot on your jeans

[Maynard Friedman]

^ Like an uncooked mini pizza base, in fact.

[reallypeacedoff]

Hope it isn't a cauliflower crust.

Inhale, exhale... just got these beauties in the mail 😘

You're in the UK right,  @MJF9?

I'm a bit puzzled as to why mine don't seem to have left Italy yet, according to tracking. Doesn't look like I'm going to have them in time for the start date cos I'm away on the 16th till the 21st.

[ATWM]

^ same here - or last scan 3 days ago was Italy. I’d bet they’ll pop up in customs tomorrow or so. 18 months though, I can start a few days behind. 

[MJF9]

I explained to @Mtvare that the italian post update was static for a few days for me too... then on Sunday UPS emailed me to say they'd arrive on Monday... and they did ...

So overall, despite the pause in updates for which I was equally impatient, the end to end journey was rapid 

Here's hoping all jeans arrive safely, without causing any Sufu health issues!!

[Alec Leamas]

Mine have been stuck on "item exported" for a few days now, which is always the case for me with EMS packages. Next update will be when it gets to Parcel Force Coventry, then to Leeds depot. 

Ideally, that will happen tomorrow, but let's see!

More importantly, how's the raw fit? Looking good?
