Dubbleworks Denim Contest

[rome1]

stopped in tonight to get my brother some Oni's and so he could preorder a pair of BiG sam's and Gordon handed me these.

....................................

Don't be such a tease and show them D:

What size are you??? D'ya know which other sizes he has ??? I want mine

[40ozprophet]

gah. post pictures! now! ditto on the sizes in questions.

[genius215]

Ok. That's just straight wrong. Post up some pics.

[will_i_am]

wtfwtfwtfwtf rome.

you lucky bastard.

how are they

[munkyballz]

^ Yes rome, details homie, details. How's the denim, fit, color, does she put out?

Don't hold back now.

PS: If there's any chance for pre-soak (of course) measurements, would be awesome. Curious to see how these run compared to BiG's charts.

[rome1]

really nice, denim is amazing to finally touch and call my own. I'll post better pics in a sec. The fit is still up in the air since I can't soak them yet so best description would be the one that Gordon already posted on the BiG site. These suckers are gonna get a hot was and hot dry to get all of the shrinkage out of the way. Question just is when? The indigo is such a nice rich color.

[Nahman]

No way....no way Nooooo waaaaayyy!!!! Yeeesss! Does this mean what I think? Now I'm going back to the city this weekend.

[Fookums]

what other sizes did they have??? quick! I demand moar infoz!

[xerikx]

why don't you call them tomorrow? I'm pretty sure rome didn't tally up the sizes while he was there..

[Fookums]

Makes sense, but I'm impatient, excited, and bored at 12am.

[rome1]

Gordon got in half of the shipment, probably over 100 jeans, or at least it looked that way. They were everywhere. He's numbering everyone of them by hand and stamping them. They are in no order, he's just putting down the number he's thinking of at the time. He also sent out a bunch of DHL boxes while I was there so many of you will be receiving them shortly.

[chantheman]

cool cant wait. looks good

[munkyballz]

^ Sick. I like the color of the selvedge. The denim looks nice and dark, and leather patch still looking sweet as the first preview.

[xerikx]

can't wait, hopefully they come out fitting well

[indigo_junkie]

Wah! I asked for them to be hemmed! guess I'm going to be waiting a little longer.

[Chponglasia]

Got mine too. Tee hee. Glad I'm in New York this week...

I was going to wait a bit to get started, but now I think I might soak them and start wearing them soon--they're really really nice.

EDIT: Fuck it, soaking now.

[tangerine]

rome1, thanks for the pics, they look awesome.

[beatle]

It's like waking up and being in heaven...

[Guest ilikeskating]

i envy everybody that bought these

[lilldavid]

damn. thats like whoa... I feel a bit sorry for gordon though, with all the hemming and numbering and stamping...

this is gonna be all long week of waiting...

[will_i_am]

looking at the samurai thread and seeing their list of competitors and comparing it to this is amazing.

this contest is going to be huge.

thanks again for the pics rome.

omgomgomgomgomg

im soooooooo excited holy shit

[rome1]

Chponglasia, great meeting you man! So my only next question is if we do deceide to soak them we just have to document it and then its just one year from that point in time. Am I correct in saying this? And how long can one put off before soaking, I don't really feel like getting into these right now still wanted to give some other pairs of denim a little more time.

[beatle]

I won´t soak before January 08...New Years soak..

Great meeting you too, dude!

So yeah, is that the deal? Did we decide on the staggered start and end dates? It might be tough to enforce, since someone could easily back date an end pic. But like people have said, in the context of a year, an extra week or two probably won't make much of a difference.

[Charlie Delta]

If people want to cheat let them cheat I guess...

And yessss! Looks good!

I'm with Beatle with the late soaking, only problem with that is that I'll have to wait a long time before I actually know if they fit, hmmmm.....

[cmo]

I'm guessing as I preordered the wrong size i'll be waiting till they are all shipped to see if Gordon can switch for me..... Bummer!!

[cheep]

i think mine will be here today or tomorrow... im soaking as soon as i get them.

[Chponglasia]

Should we set an end date deadline? Otherwise, the contest could go on for years...
