i love how there were nearly 25 pages of discussion about the jeans themselves, and when they were getting here....

while the last one is all about people "not wanting them" yet..just so they can wear something else..

comical.

Had ordered a w34 initially and after paying a visit to BIG had to change my order to a w32. Now i'm just waiting to see if i'm going to be able to switch.

If not guess I got a pair of w34 for sale!!

I wasn't sure about entering the contest until recently. I was planning on picking up the jeans just to have, but since I don't get to wear jeans all that much anyway I thought that waiting a little bit for the contest to start wouldn't hurt...

It'll be interesting to compare my weekend/night wear with everybody else.

You and I can have our own contest Jubei, I gotta wear dress pants during the day so I'm a night/weekender as well.

Yeah I'm a Friday + weekend warrior. No weekday nights though. I work too many hours during the week to even change into jeans once I get home. Straight to the shower and bed after work. I'm lucky to have casual Fridays though.

In all honesty, I think it would be totally fair to have a "weekend warrior" category. I am not going to be able to keep up with a college kid who beats them into the ground.

wow, I had never even considered that a possibility...

wouldn't it be neat if there were different divisions? I think the best prize would have to go to the open category, but maybe a smaller one for weekend warriors? And maybe we could set up a rule so that you could only participate in one category at a time to prevent cheating (it would be hard to prove that you were a true weekend warrior, so I guess you'd have to volunteer to be in that category and accept the smaller prize)

I think it would be just too silly to make two different divisions. So please don't.

Wow, no sympathy for people who work in finance (or other formal environments)!

I do agree with you that it would get silly having multiple divisions, but it's gonna take me a long time to get a good dent in these. Maybe Jubei and I can make suits out of the denim, wear them everyday and then see who gets the best wear after a year.

considering the amount of people in the contest, that wouldnt be such a bad idea. that division could be held without a prize. however, how could you enforce the nnight/weekend rule?

You forgot the Denim Tie with the Chambray Shirt. That's what makes it extra classy.

I'm sure there are other people out there in the same predicament, so I guess we can just keep it informal... a sort of "no-prize" or a "gold star" type deal.

And I think it's going to be pretty obvious if anyone's cheating on a Weekend Warrior schedule. Us guys get roughly 2/7 ths the wear time everybody else does (if you count random holidays, casual fridays and evenings, it's probably closer to 3.5/7ths :P hooray for number crunching!)

really... does anyone care that much about winning? im more concerned with the amazing jeans that we are all getting... and the great price gordon worked out for us.

i mean... a contest is fun because of the fact that youre part of something bigger... but beyond that i dont get it.

I'm going to have to agree with Cheep! I'll be getting minimum wear; yet, maximum enjoyment out of these jeans and contest.

I'm just going to have fun watching other people's jeans wear in as mine do. I know that, with my wear pattern, I will destroy the jeans utterly well before the end of the contest, even if I reinforce the crotch and the belt loops before I start wearing them, I suspect I'd get arrested if I tried to wear the jeans for a full year.

LOL..I will enjoy 2 contest free months...excited to hear they are on their way - but not in a hurry....

what do you mean two contest free months? arent we supposed to start right when the samurai contest is over?

so jealous of all you in the contest. :mad:

someone with a size 30, drop out. =X

I am a size 29 and am thinking of dropping out. I have my eyes on those BIGxSamurai jeans. Would you want a size 29?

If the 30s are too big for me, maybe we can work out a three-way. ;)

Wouldn't the winning pair of jeans be required to have a chain-stiched hem? Seems unlikely that the winning pair wouldn't have one. If that's the case, then the group of true competitors in this contest is probably quite small.
