samurai denim contest [pics]

[Guest jeffvyain]

any ideas for the next contest.

something heavier so people aren't wearing holes in their jeans 6 months in. samurai loves this cotton thread...it's great to be authentic and all, but people's pockets be fallin off...not too cool. while i have the same issues with my 5000vx, it isn't nearly as pronounced, though I attribute that to the fact that I need to get my ass off my computer chair and out doing shit. i've been climbing a lot, and that has a lot of potential on the jeans, but I'm scared to wear them with a harness on, because i'll get some weird ass fading. other than that, i prefer to move as little as possible, and it shows.

Denim Jackets?

[edmond]

how about the 21 onzers s510xx??? its limited edition.. and its heavy denim..

any ideas for the next contest.

I think Ironheart 634s would be a good choice. They are very heavy, and seem to be well-constructed, so you wouldn't have the problems associated with the Sammies. Also, I haven't seen too many faded pics, so it would be nice to see how they turn out after extended wear.

[edmond]

err i think sammies only?

[denimdestroyedmylife]

dick, i love your whiskers. reminds me of those illuminated waterfall things that they've got in chinese restaurants.

[cheep]

its really interesting how different the jeans look... i mean almost all apc or rrds fade the same... same type patterns and all... but mine are far different than dicks, which are far different than beatles, which....

i cant wait till the end.

on the subject of the heavy jeans for the next one... i think that the little repairs and things are what will give these jeans real character... its gonna show who cares about the jeans and who's just trying to destroy them.

you need to post more pics, your last batch put most to shame.

yes please. more pictures.

if this were a horse race i'd take i_miss_lily to win; all other bets are off.

[beatle]

Denim Jackets?

That would be fun. A lot of company make jackets so it wouldn't be too hard to pick a company.

no camera atm but i would be all for another year of sammies

before these jeans i didnt know so many shades of blue existed!

After seeing the result of this contest I'm wondering how many of us will want to participate to a next contest.( If a next contest is held)??

[adsurgo]

damn everyones jeans are lookin awesome. so much character.

[abstraktgeformt]

I'd vote for Ande Whall because he could do some crazy custom shit. V4 is due to the end of the year anyway, so the timing would be perfect...

[cheep]

these are about ready for a wash... they feel fucking horrible against my skin... its like they never fully dry

On the bright side, the fit of those things on you couldn't be better. I'd say the constant moisture is a fair trade off.

[Superstar]

i love how the colour just gets darker and darker downwards..

fading nicely..

[cheep]

yeah, im washing tonight.

am i the only one here that doesnt have blowouts happening in the crotch? i keep seeing people say the crotch needs repairing, but mine is still nice and strong, even with all the wear ive put in these. im starting to wonder if the frequent washing helps.

[Superstar]

the bigger the content the bigger the blowout i suppose...

[justinbaily21]

*high five*

[cheep]

the bigger the content the bigger the blowout i suppose...

i dont know about that... im also the only one whos whiskers dont go all the way across...

[Thorns]

Mine have only had one wash... I'm thinking about another, but this time to put them in the dryer. Some extra shrinking might be nice.

[cheep]

[Westbrook]

[fre-co]

They look fantastic

[cheep]
