2009 Superfuture Conest - Dry Bones

[beatle]

It came up in the small question thread - so here's the thought

Superfuture world wide denimcontest 2009

Dry Bones X Selfedge

Possible special run for contest

Quote Kiya

That sounds fun and something we've considered this year..

We can start it in january or february..

We can do a special run for the contest maybe even..

I would be aiming for a not too tapered leg - in order to get as many ppl as possible interested - thinking of a modern slim fit...

Shoot

[aho]

Not even a question of if I'm down or not...brilliant beatle, just brilliant!

Although I have to say this reminds me somewhat of the SExFH05 "contest" that isn't really happening save for a few proud faithful. As for the cut, isn't a "modern slim fit with a not too tapered leg" basically the F310/3001? It'd still be nice to get special detailing on a pair even if it's decided to stick with that model, however...

[mr.invincible]

man....if i haven't bough my 3001's

but i don't mind another one! man..so many decisions..there is an evisu contest and now this. what other details do you have beatle?

is there a custom made for these jeans?

[raulishere]

I would be down for sure and the idea of a modern slim fit jean sounds like a great idea. Combining that with a special contest jean I would be in heaven.

[jpsmith98]

This could be cool, but why not try something different as far as the actual jeans go? The past two contest jeans, as far as I can tell, have been more-or-less slim-fit jeans. Maybe something roomier/anti-fit? Higher rise? Cinch-back? Exposed rivets? Black/persimmon/hickory stripe denim? Just a suggestion, it would be interesting to see something different in the design.

[mr.invincible]

black sounds nice

[halberdklown]

now this is a great idea, and i second mr.invincible, black would be good

[rockon99]

hmmmmmmmm how does one enter this contest possibility

[jonle714]

flat head is cool and all, but how bout a brand that people are not familiar of?

[fndmybetterhalf]

^ agreed. im down either way, but i think it would be more fun if we could do this with a pair that people arent too familiar with the fades of. plus, no matter wat, sidneylo probably won this contest way before.

but again, im down either way, ive been looking for excuses to buy a pair of flatheads

[was ist los?]

I hope we can get something affordable like the Warehouse contest.

I'd also love a slim cut with no antifit.

[Opie]

This could be my first contest ever! Selfedge, get ready to ship to china!

BTW, i would vote for the 4001.

Would be easier for me to use while teaching classes.. Damn dresscode!

While I understand what you're getting at, I think Flat Head would be the most practical. First of all, if we want to get this officially endorsed by Self Edge, it'd help to stick with brands they actually carry. As far as I know there hasn't been a Flat Head contest and out of the other brands carried, we all know "sick fadez" can be acheived within say, a one year period. Skull? Already one going on. Iron Heart? Would be interesting as they are damn tough but again we need to consider the time period. Errr you get the point. More positive points for Flathead would be kiya's strong relationship with FH giving us more room for creativity, customization, prizes, and maybe even a cheaper cost for the jeans themselves?

[jonle714]

we should do a best fades but crappy denim contest (5)

[Opie]

Actually, it won't matter what model/brand/pair we chose since i'm going to leave all of you in the dust! Boya!

[epitaph220]

I'd be down, except I can only hope the price tag is reasonable.

[Junetastic]

Yes. Send those jeans to me in the California valley! How fun!

[Opie]

I'd be down, except I can only hope the price tag is reasonable.

Well, you best start licking on Kiya, no?

Actually, we should let all the women use the balder version.

(BTW, balder.. is that like a perverted joke?)

[thaiison]

i'm also down with a not too familiar brand. iron heart would be interesting too

[plongin]

definitely got the stamp of approval from me man

[Paul T]

I'm up for this having missed out on so many others.

I would vote for a slim rather than skinny fit, a la 505 or 47. As far as off-the-wall options, I'd like to see that with the fabric, maybe with the 5100 yellow line denim. And if we go for different hardware, something really minimal, maybe plain doughnut buttons and vintage-stlye, hand-hammered solid copper rivets. TO give us something high-quality, but super-plain... stealthy.

[edmond]

please non of those skinny shit and all maybe a 3005 cut from fh would be nice

[Supawiwi]

Yes sir, that would be my first denim contest and the begining of the year will be a perfect timing to change my 103. I'm in.

I agree with a no skinny cut, but lets try to find something not too roomy either. Something everybody can be happy with.

Anyway, I'll be part of the contest. Great Idea!

[opethrapture]

Sounds interesting. Let's see how this plays out.

Ninja jeans ftw!

No really, i agree. We need the most minimialistic design possible.

Bigger canvas = more/better possible outcome

[lestat]

slim/straight?

i dont want to size up 1-2 sizes to fit my thighs

[SLAB]

i'm interested; i'd prefer another brand though since i'm just about to start wearing my F380's, maybe some RealMccoys S614? Isn't Selfedge about to distribute that brand?

[LC_Miey]

early 09 sounds good.great way to kick start a new year but i think mmaybe some other underrated brands..

flathead has been getting alot of attention this past few years maybe its time to indulge in something else =)

[Opie]

Can you guys please look at the words coming out of Kiya's mouth?

Special run?

Let's be honest, how many times do you get to fuck around with a special run.

Also, look at all the contests over at mynudies. See how many of them that just goes right down the drain. You know why? No obvious sponsor. So just.. take the deal and run guys!

[Knoll]

Yes, would be madness not to go with Flat Head. I am also for slim rather than skinny.
