[rome1]

Congrats to tha winners!!!!

[JohnnyRed]

congrats all, the winning jeans look awesome!

Hats off to everyone though, this was a great contest. Everyone's pairs came out pretty different, and this was a great way to showcase some unique denim. Good show everyone!

[rnrswitch]

So do we just send BIG our address, so they can send out the complimentary handkerchiefs?

[mrjuby]

congrats to edwithoutahead, was it los? and soonami.

free handkerchief!

[soonami]

I haven't had a working computer at home for the longest time, but I'm at a friend's and decided to check up on this and am so happy with the results, but I have to say any of 10 other pairs could've taken my spot and I couldn't complain.

I think part oft he reason why I placed so high in the contest was that I got the perfect day to take pictures with a slight overcast and beautiful leaves on the ground.

When I get internet back at home, I'll post updated pictures, there've been a lot more repairs since the last pictures.

[was ist los?]

Received my prize the other day, thought I'd post some pics.

And of course, the bandana:

[salaami]

if anyone for whatever reason wants to sell the bandana PM me.

[soonami]

Cool Was, I can't wait to get my belt. Do the jeans have the horny chimp patch?

and yeah the bandana is rad

[chantheman]

had a couple holes starting to form in the crotch of the warehouse 660s so i had my grandma fix them up

no before pics. just got them back

[was ist los?]

Unfortunately soonami, no chimp on the new 660s. It's the standard 660Blueingreen. I'll keep them deadstock until i need a backup pair of jeans.

[Chicken]

i got my red bandanna today. thanks blue in green!

[rnrswitch]

Got mine too. Looks great. Cool western scene.

Blue in green was pretty prompt with shipping these out.

[soonami]

Gordon told me he is communicating with the crew at Warehouse about the belt, but I am anxiously waiting!

[kenthenoob]

all participants are supposed to receive a bandana?

[JohnnyRed]

all participants are supposed to receive a bandana?

No I thought just the top places....

[rome1]

I thought it was just the people that submitted photos to BiG...

[rnrswitch]

Just those that submitted photos... the real participants. Anyone can buy a pair of jeans.

[kenthenoob]

oh cool. can't wait for mine to arrive then!

[rnrswitch]

I think you need to send gordon your address. Maybe not, but I did for good measure.

[JohnnyRed]

oh nice, I didn't realize! Just sent gordon my address. thanks for the heads up!

[I<3Bacon]

<3 BiG/Gordon

[soonami]

These bandannas are fucking bad-ass

[soonami]

I talked to Gordon and Warehouse was out of stock in my belt size (b/c I'm a fatty and need a 36) so he offered me a new pair of 660s, which I took!

So here they are, with the bandana:

Also, I wanted to post some updates, worn about 1/3 of the time since the contest ended. I've needed a lot more repairs since that last wash before the end of the contest.

[iamstarwars]

Wow... They're beautiful... I love the color of the threads you used in the repairs.

[soonami]

^^ just what I could scourge up, but now, it's nice too see what was repaired and what was OG

[kenthenoob]

kind of an update:

[salaami]

soonami, i wish i could +rep! fucking wow....this makes me so glad to have the 1000xx denim to wear as my next project. i woke up this morning and i thought,''i should wear my warerhouse today'', but i would hate to miss a day on my FC, since they are just getting good, so i used some discipline. but damn the 1000xx is dope!

[Florian.FloC]

660s are easily my next purchase, the results are fantastic

[shekki]

Better late than never... #193 reporting in:

So I wore mine for about 8 months straight and just abandoned them (didn't like the fit) for a pair of diors. I recently picked up on them and don't really mind the fit anymore, in fact I quite like them now.

Been doing a lot of bike riding lately, and they're beginning to stink. I'm debating whether or not I should wash them now or just wait til august because it's going to be a long summer.

9 months total - 1 wash @ 4 months

I might post fit pics later on
