samurai denim contest [pics]

[seatiger]

I think the norm for samurais is upside down "A". The contest jeans have upside down "A"s so its up side up.

So is this shit dead?

I just made my first post on the site. I clicked around for a while afterwards, and it looks like a lot of people (like more than 10) haven't made a single post yet.

[polishmike]

i think a lot of people don't have too much wear in them yet. i have some but there is nothing to brag about, plus you won't see much in the pictures.

[386]

I'ma make my first post tomorrow.

[BrokenGlass]

ya there's not a whole lot going on with mine yet either, and my camera phone isn't going to pick up what is actually going on... ass/lap fading...pretty minimal at this point though, I just don't get to wear denim as much as the rest of you.

I'm still going to win.

[Dick Danger]

Well hell, I don't have a lot going on either but I still have to post. I would have posted earlier but I was waiting to get a real digicam.

[Seething Tortoise]

Hell, they're wearing in quickly. Especially the button atari.

Looking at the pics posted in this thread it seems like most the jeans have a regular "A", who has a pair that actually has an upside down "A"? Did Samurai mess up production and made them with regular "A"s.

[386]

Samurai did not mess up. Once again, ours all have a regular A. Go ahead and don't believe me. The original limited edition S0500XX is the only of the model that had it upside down. Then they realized that everyone wanted the dungarees so they made more.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

My bad. I had your named spelled "horriblyhollyjinx" somewhere so it wouldn't work. Fixed.

thanks! uploaded mine.

[derdankhund]

i'll get around to doing mine here in the next week...i'm up in bc skiing and partying, so denim contest profile maintenance hasn't exactly been at the top of my list since I got done with finals...

Ok thanks for clearing things up, I actually thought the contest jeans were the first 30 pairs made since they have the first 30 serial numbers. My mistake.

Awesome fit 386 and please don't hem, loving the cuffs.

[BrokenGlass]

[Chicken]

[Superstar]

[BrokenGlass]

[horriblyjollyjinx]

no, it's just a box of mints. I have a round tin with VASELINE for my lips though, but it's too big for the coin pocket. I usually keep it in the pocket of my denim shirt or in the left backpocket.

[poly800rock]

i love how your jeans have their own professional photographer digital

[the black arm]

he also had a pair from the pres? of iron heart and some other employee of sugarcanes, all 3 looked amazing . . big props for setting those up, very inspirational. I say whoever wins the denim contest donates the winning pair to self edge to be framed . . i mean since they'll be getting a fresh new pair anyways, and self edge IS the west coast capital of superfuture . .

[poly800rock]

I was going to take them to Sears or Picture People, but Ayn volunteered.

The Sams next to the Firetruck and Easter Egg would have been cool though.

bring em to sears and put the studio's and whatever else you got hiding next to em, one big family

[Chicken]
