Skrawny 13 Denim Project (Kicking Mule Workshop)

[TPR950H]

It looks like 386 is about to blow up and become green. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

or hungry.

[386]

Judging by the anger in my last picture, you know that I'm ready to move onto different denim pastures. I have still been giving these my all as my month is not entirely "up" yet, but I'd like to know where to send these. Then I can prepare them with a gentle bath and some pictures of that mess.

[evilgeniusdan]

Thanks for all the updates 386

So where do these go? I think we need Sam to chime in.

I'd be waaay more than happy to give them another run *cough cough*

[386]

I sat around and watched some friends play video games and enjoyed a dram of Lagavulin scotch.

This one goes out to Kiya. I bought a sweet Yomega original Brain from a flea market for a quarter when my friend and roommate, Gabe, and I were waiting for a pizza. What a deal.

"I don't think it's gonna fit through the hole!" "That's what she said." We got a really big pizza from Luigi's Pizza.

Drove home.

Later, I read a book.

I'm not quite to the "hating putting these on every morning" mark yet, but I'd love to know that I get to mail them somewhere very soon. To be honest, I am kind of tired of them but they are decent dungarees.

[386]

Please let me send these to someone soon. I feel like my time is up. I can take it- it's the jeans I'm worried about.

[Thorns]

The last two people who are supposed to get 'em are Heartworm and Sam. But I dunno haven't heard from either party in awhile.

[Leonard Leroy]

I would volunteer but these have already been around NYC/NJ.

[sam113]

OK-

Heres the deal:

Heatworm is out.

Opie is gonna take em for a month, then they'll come to me at CONTEXT.

386-

Opie will be PM his shipping address to you.

Thanks for being the most consistent updater(?).

[386]

I know it sounds bad, but I'm so excited to get these off my legs. Whenever I get the address, I'll soak/handwash them, air dry them, and ship them out the next day.

Owning up a game a frisbee golf. Totally tore my friends a new one.

[Opie]

Adress will come in a few hours.

I'm at a boarding school in china at the moment so it will probably be a little weird.

Pre-wash Pictures:

Neat Details:

[386]

And some washing. I used Thunder Soap and it makes the water all milky and awesome. Dry pictures to follow, much later today or maybe even tomorrow.

[386]

I am about to mail these to the Communist Republic of China. It was a good run, young Kicking Mules... a good run. The washing really brought out a lot of the color and washed away the nasty gray that seemed to be taking over the jeans. Now that they are ready to go, I'm finally starting to enjoy their color. It happens.

[386]

I added these few things and a few things last minute that didn't get pictured. The patch denim was donated from a pair of Samurai jeans and is 21oz denim.

[Thorns]

I think Sam should set up a little month long shrine to these in Context with all the things in the goodie bag. If anybody loses the goodie bag I'll be upset.

[sam113]

Never fear, Thorns.

They will definitely be added to the hall of fame we have at the store.

Goodies included.

[Opie]

I'll include the little red one and some chopsticks for the display

[Thorns]

Hmm... have jeans will travel.

Think these have made it over the Pacific yet?

[Opie]

I'm beating kids in ping-pong and looking into the distance for these..

[Action Waffle]

looking good, these are almost exactly what mine look like a year in (only like 7 months of wear though) complete with that stupid antifit crotch hole that I desperately need to get patched the next time I'm down at silk street or sanlitun

once i do that i'll wash them (second wash) and take some pics I think

only real difference is the patch- is it really that dark? did somebody treat it that i missed?

[Opie]

They arrived safe and sound this blessed thursday evening!

Here is me being happy about the fact that i can actually fit into a size 28:

I'll give you a tour of the school later and throw around interesting fact about why i'm so amazing.

[Opie]

What is it with this audiance being so damn dead?

Well here is a picture of me building up some knee-fades.

[Opie]

Hands up the ones of you who think i got laid!

[Thorns]

Im having a bad day at work and feel like being a jerk sooooo here goes:

You look like the kind of guy who probably builds up a lot of knee fadez.

[386]

I'm not the only one who wears the same clothes every day! Yay.

[ChaseDizzy]

I think they fit you very well.

And yeah thorns they've been over the pacific and washed in it...my philippines/japan/hawaii

excursion last year.

How much of the shit is still in the goodie bag? i hope none of it was lost.

[Opie]

Thorns, thorns, thorns. Be nice!

Unless it is placed on adriana lima, i'm not into ass.

386, Those pics were taken on the same day, but yeah, i'm stil living out of my suitcase so i'm limited.

ChaseD, thank you! I'm pretty sure that everything is still there. Pibe, lids, denimpatch, money, white horse, you name it!

Btw, would anyone bitch if i gave them a hot soak this weekend? It is hot and humid down here, i get to play a lot of basket, badminton and tabletennis in them, and i want them just a bit sweat-free before golden week.

[Thorns]

Go ahead and soak 'em. I'm sure no one will mind. Be sure to take pics though.

Also feel free to puff on the pipe! Its good luck.
