samurai denim contest [pics]

As Bobbito would say, "Where'd you get those?" I've been diggin the Hosoi vans, but have no idea where to find them. Don't worry about competition, I live too far away for it to be crampin your steelo. I saw in Sneaker Freaker an ad for them saying they were Limited, so I don't even know if it'd be possible to get a pair at this point.

This is why you take your bottoms off before you have assraces.

i saw them recently in a skateshop here in denmark, so i guess they might not be limited...

Just to keep things all in their own neat little group.

Not much to look at yet but I got bored.

I can play too..

twistedtrees- picked up those vans off of ebay... new for $50 bucks... some time ago?

[twistedtrees]

yeah, I found some on eBay, but the cheapest in my size was $70. There was even a pair with a buy it now for $150. Thanks for the reply, now back to the contest pics....

It's not of utmost importance, but using the photo hosting on the actual denimcontest website will allow all of the images to remain. I know a lot of people use photobucket and flickr and whatnot, but people tend to delete their images on these services which would make some people's posts blanks. Even years down the line the photos will still be with the denimcontest website, but the photobucket link may not.

Just throwing that out there.

It looks like it was another one of my great spelling mistakes. I have PM'ed you new details. It was my fault.

[Dick Danger]

so i'm not a wordpress guru, I tried to upload a pic and I have no idea where it went, my pics are at flickr so I don't think they'll disappear any time soon

[ayn]

Rethinking my Red Moon.

[Dick Danger]

I figured it would wear a hole, but I thought it would take longer than 20 days. I washed once a month ago, going to wash again this weekend.

[M.O.A]

see thats just fucking insane....these jeans fade out so much. The contrast is crazy.

[poly800rock]

i wouldn't believe it myself if i didn't wear mine everyday, but when they said these were made for MAXIMUM ATARI, they really were....CMF was right in saying these will be some "NEW STANDARD" in jeans....just wait another 8 months till we all see the end results

[tweeds]

i have a question about samurai denim - given the quick fade of the sammies, is there a chance these will be like the japanese version of nudies, fading fast, blowing holes out, etc?

just a thought, because i have seen plenty of holes.
