Warehouse Denim Contest [pics and discussion]

[wesc]

Gordon = Denim Mastaaaaaaaa

[morge]

So I just got my pair yesterday, bought an extra pair that Beatle had. Did anyone else have an issue with the inseam on these? I asked for a 34" post soak and after I hot soaked for a few hours and tumble tried for 15 mins I have at most 32". Gordon sent the extra that he took off and it was 3" worth. Does that sound right? I don't know what to do, they are actually a perfect fit in every other way but the inseam which at the moment is barely wearable, but I'm worried if they shrink any more they won't work at all.

Wet them again, and stretch out the inseam by stepping on them and pulling at the top.

Thanks for the scans, Chicken. Does anybody in the US carry this magazine?

You can probably get it from kinokuniya or asahiya.

I also have the stitching on the right leg by the crotch coming undone. On the left side the stitching is weak too so I fix both sides. It's been about a month and a lot of wear, I'll post pics when I get a chance tomorrow.

Thanks, I checked kinokuniya earlier and didn't find it. I'm going to try calling the New York store Monday.

Asahiya had this, but I don't think it's the right magazine:

hey panda, I think the latest one is Vol. 165.

You can find it here from the publisher.

Last night I had a dream that my contest jeans were developing huge crotch tears, fortunately I woke up and realized it wasn't real.

[kenthenoob]

you sleep in them?

[skiniks]

i've slept in mine a few times now, they're really comfy.

[chantheman]

ive passed out in my pair a couple times, then again most pants are comfy to me at that point

[ogre]

there's also a big celebrity residing in new york participating in this contest, making this even more exciting.

Thanks for the translation, Chicken. Maybe I missed something, but who's the big celebrity participating in the contest?

[skiniks]

well, i believe both Jay-Z and Lebron James have pairs. I don't know if they're in the comp, though.

Every time I see Lebron he's wearing nice Japanese denim.

what is he your next door neighbor or something? name droppers suck!

[rnrswitch]

He's my next door neighbor and I don't think he would like the tone of your post. I will have to notify him.

[rnrswitch]

Anyways, here are some pics of my jeans. About 1.5months I guess.

[lilldavid]

Thank you chicken! now somebody's got to help me get this magazine to sweden

[kenthenoob]

i'd like a copy of the magazine as well

yes! today is officially the first month of wear!

pictures will be posted tomorrow!

[beatle]

Good fit next to the xmas tree...

[cheep]

as far as the big celebrity, i know that jay z and leborn both have pairs of these.

[apocalypse later]

rnr, that's some really nice evo for such a short time.

[dunkin deeznuts]

damn the jeans are making your face look crazy...i'd take em off for a while if you were you....

[spunkey]

Had to wash at 3 weeks due to drunk piss and BBQ sauce related accidents

And sorry for being a noob, but my jeans don't feel like they fit right unless the fly is to the left a noticeable amount, is this normal with all raw jeans?

[jubei]

erm... no

that's just your junk.

[dunkin deeznuts]

i do notice these jeans have a significant crotch bulge when i'm sitting.....

or maybe its just my stiffy from wearing these awesome jeans

I can imagine they got pretty 'funky' fits going on tho...
