looks realy nice mate , they do fade fast

i think im in love with this denim . someone needs to buy my 1109's so i can buy another pair that fits

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well if you already hjave some WH and no FC...then go for the FC because of change

[SLAB]

mmm, those 1109's are exactely my size... must resist temptation

[beautiful_FrEaK]

no you must not

[demonator]

so im a size 34 on 1108?

[Flash]

Ed , the 13.7oz 1108 will shrink to tag size

So you can go tts for the room you want in the thighs but you will end up with a slightly loose waist ( I went tts 30 and mine fit fine )

Or you go down 1 and get a tighter top block but you give up the room you need in the thighs

So ive decided to keep my 1109's

Here is a few (bad) fit pics

Since my partner sarah insists on using energy saving lightbulbs i decided to take the door off the closet and find better lighting

I was realy unsure of the cut when i first tried them on as im not used to cuts this slim but i think it will work out fine after a few days wear

[Maynard Friedman]

Flash, keeping them is a wise decision. They look good on you, I think your physique suits the cut.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

to be honest they don't look much slimmer than your OOE 9202 fit

they look good and great that you decided to keep them

[Flash]

Thanks guy's

I'm going to get them hemmed sometime this week and ill try to get proper fit pics

[oomslokop]

^was goin to say what b_f said abt your ooe, flash. lookin great. from here doesnt look like you even need to hem.

[Flash]

Thanks mate

I have them cuffed inside out for the fit pics , there about 3 inches too long

Acid wash!

Life's been chugging along nicely in my Full COUnts.

Done a fair bit of driving in this across the South of England...

Sadly, the battery failed. I pulled it out a couple of times to work on it. Which is why I now have a pair of acid-washed Full Counts. Did a part wash, but the fabric was still being eaten away... so took advantage of a brief bit of sunshine for a full hand wash...

[Maynard Friedman]

Nice to see you back Paul. I reckon if you cut them off just above the acid damage, you'll have a nice little pair of 'cheeky' shorts!

[movingslow]

as much as it sucks that the acid is eating the fabric, I think its a sweet little detail/story for the pair

[Paul T]

Maynard, i thought you'd have had time to work on your jokes since I last encountered you?

i"m proud of my acid scars, shows off my tough, globe-trotting lifestyle. Err...

[garden gnomes in space]

get yourself an Optima battery. I had to re weld a new battery tray into my 914 because of leaky battery acid. never again.

[demonator]

how good are optimas?

[garden gnomes in space]

they are expensive compared to the OEM, but if you have a car thats non-galvanized, it could save the cars structural integrity.. Performance-wise, they seem to be a bit stronger when cold starting, but other than that, I didnt really notice much difference.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I have to say it again, I really love this denim!

If Fullcount and a/the 15,5oz denim wouldn’t already have been used, and if I wouldn’t suck so much in organizing contests, and if there wouldn’t be so many contests going on and starting soon (HWDC2)….man….this denim would be just great for a contest!

And again you could choose between 3 different cuts with this denim (0105, 1108, 1109)

[aho]

^just do ittttt

[movingslow]

^just do ittttt

yes

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I think there are quite some problems we would facing. First problem: I would have to buy a new pair as I wear mine since 6 weeks already

Then we would have to find enough cuys willing to join and I think we would need at least 15 guys who are active and post regular to keep this contest interesting.

We would also need a supplier/shop/sponsor. AND-Japan would be the cheapest option with all pairs in stock but Gordon has more experience in contests and stuff

[Maynard Friedman]

There has recently been a Full Count contest organized by BiG, so that would probably not be their preference. I'm sure they'd like to showcase another brand for their next contest, whenever that may be.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That's what I also thought and said before. Although the contest was 2009, your opinion ist still valid

[aho]

i remember after the lht samurai contest idea burst, gordon suggested the lot 906 mccoys...my favorite (and yet to be seen) would most definitely be a leepro however!

anyway, dont mean to derail, but id def. like to see a fc contest play out with that new denim!

Took BiG forever to sell off all their left over jeans from the Full Count contest, especially the 0105C. Edit that, they still have the 0105C on their website in sizes 27, 28, 29, and 30. I can't see them having any interest in doing another Full Count contest any time soon.
