I’m not competing but I am curious the reference to EVH and the 5150 jeans? Just paying homage to the SHRED GOD? 

That's my understanding. Nothing more to it than a play on 501 and a nod to EVH.

My pair is due tomorrow 

And Simone is doing tests with his new die

[JohnM]

^ Your pair looks good b_F.  Not sure about the fit quite yet 😉

When IKEA will start selling jeans, they’ll probably come in sets like this.

Another view is the simple affirmations from the peeps who want their jeans shipped with no delays is a good thing eh 😉

That said, to break it up... here's a pic of someone's jeans

Simone finished quite a lot already

(& done! apologies for delay)

[theguywhoknewthatguy]

Email sent to Simone

[volvo240thebest]

Email sent!

 

[Alec Leamas]

Had an email with the balance remaining from Simone today! Exciting!

Just to reiterate, for me and others getting the email from him today / this week?

Is it just paypal payment to [email protected]?

And there will always a rivet be missing

[Maynard Friedman]

Or an extra one leaving you wondering if you missed something and where it should go.

[Mtvare]

Accidentally neg repped you there @beautiful_FrEaKwhen I meant to hit positive . Think I rectified it though.

But you'll be able to stitch as messily as you like, leaving Konaka-san green with envy and leaving scraps of thread of any length.

[Jared_Lee]

All paid up. 🤑

[Broark]

Also paid the balance, looking forward to this kicking off!
Assuming we’ll have a new dedicated thread once the contest starts?

[Dr_Heech]

@beautiful_FrEaK

So which contestants are rocking the buckleback pairs again? @Broark and @MJF9 surely ?

[fabes]

I’m also paid up. Still think a solstice start date would be cool, but looking forward to the kickoff whenever it is. 

[AlientoyWorkmachine]

Paid up. Now to just wait!

@Dr_Heech I've got a cinch, 30's pair. Don't think there were too many of us. 

[Broark]

@Dr_Heech nah I went with the cinchless ‘42 spec with the denim pocket bags.

Thanks. Looking at the previous page l think there are 5 contestants who are donning the 30s pairs, so just four more.

Ahh yes, similar to my CSF WW2 pair l think - based on pair #24 in the book?

Thanks mate, knew someone here would be organised enough 😉

[CSL]

Balance paid!

[reallypeacedoff]

Paid! To be sure, I see the WoMJ die being tested above but we are getting the comp-only version?
