[cheep]

since this is being done thru BiG i have a feeling a tab is not gonna happen....

Haha, yeah, I'd be pretty skeptical... but I'm sure a few endeavoring souls would find a way to create their own!

I hope a sufficiently bad ass arcuate & leather patch design can be designed/agreed upon. The current patch and lack of stitching is kind of... boring (for me and my "busier" tastes, at least)

[genius215]

Affirmative! Count me in. Missed opportunity on last contest due to not being a member. Awesome idea. P.S voted for 36" inseam.

[Robert_Bennett]

I'M IN!!!!! Let me know the details on this!!!!

[Heartworm]

It's not like it's hard to sew in a tab in your own pair, so the only problem is having them made and shipped out to people... But a SUFU red tab would be hella mint.

[ronj]

Awesome deal. I'd get 36.

[Darkadious]

would anyone here be able to mass produce sufu red tabs?

[dremsburg]

Count me in.

[kenthenoob]

dang 183! this is gonna be one hell of a contest

[I_miss_lily]

183 people seems like a lot. I wonder how many people a company like this can accomodate for a contest. Not to mention how hard it would be to vote! Can you imagine having to sift through 180 pairs of pants to pick your favorite.

Anyways I'll be in this one too, I'm just not looking forward to having to work an office job for it.

[jschenkkan]

i'm in.. with all these contests being started we're going to need a whole nother subforum.

[Dex_star]

i doubt all 183 or however amount of votes are actually gonna commit to buying a pair... i voted, but am not 100% sure... i just wanted to vote 36 so the tall folks can get a chance

Na you do an elimination if you wanna be fair

Round of 256 (with X number randomly granted a Bye) head to head to make sure there's no 'Nader effect'.

Round of 128

Round of 64...

It'd be eight rounds. A LOT of voting... but it'd be fair.

[hoodsuburbia]

im in too i just want the jeans haha go 36!

[beatle]

The tab could be at a different place - like on the lower part of the pocket..

As for arcs - I'll have to draw something later on photoshop..

if you're going to do it tournament style there has to be some sort of seeding. it wouldn't be fair if two really great jeans go against each other early in the game and have other less exciting jeans pass the round.

[Unkle Jamima]

I was playing with photoshop:

I think its fun!

[toufu]

do you think we can get some other pictures of the fit besides the one at bear's before we buy?

would be great if ayn could model a pair

[superBobo]

typical of me to have completly missed this thread. For that price, and a 36 inseam, im def in! i will not outfade Cheap, but ill do my best.

[nightdeposit]

im down for this. 36 L is my vote.

I think random would be fine. If two good jeans go together at the start, why should the result be different than the final?

That said, whoever does the pairing for the votes can easily and quickly do some quick seeding to make sure no faves go out first round.

[denihilist]

Is it too late to be counted in on this? Voted 34 but I have to hem everything so it's no big deal either way.

well it may vary because people may be tired of looking at so many jeans and their decisions might be slightly random

[ang_kangkong]

i guarantee we will get 100 people. i'm getting a pair and i'm not even competing, really.

Same here. I'll update every so often, but I have no illusions of winning. Except I'm already getting inexpensive Jpn jeans that'll fade well.

No inseam pref. either.

[40ozprophet]

Definately decided to be in, at that price why not.

[Tyro1]

would be a definate, provided these are 36 in one wash state

[Chicken]

wow, 200 votes already.

great job, cheep.

[Dick Danger]

For that price I'll buy a pair of 36s, if nothing else I'll have patch material.

[indigo_junkie]

I wonder how many of the 200 will still be around by Jan 2008. I know I'll still be wearing jeans, but this thread would probably end up being a distant memory by then. I'll probably buy a pair of APC NS in January and as I'm putting them on, I'd be thinking "Wasn't I supposed to have spent this money on some other pair of jeans... ?"

I suppose interest whould be generated early on though, to give Warehouse some time to make all them jeans, but I guess I'm just impatient. I want them now!

[scoon0224]

Tired of looking at jeans? Nonsense... take it back or I'll +1 you...

Pace it out... spread it out over WEEKS to go through the rounds... spread it out so much that the anticipation is destroyed and all that's left is weariness and a vague distaste for the contest at hand...

Just like the playoffs, but less trailer trash and beer cups.
