2009 Superfuture Conest - Dry Bones

[kiya]

Enthusiasm seems to have cooled down considerably for these...? Any ETA for a more complete size chart?

Enthusiasm will go back up once i have a more finished product to show..

i've got a meeting with Dry Bones in six hours to finalize the specs and such..

[akuma no uta]

Excited to see the finished product

^ I tend to think of myself as a size-31 kinda guy. The jeans I'm currently wearing regularly (House of Cassette) measure about 32" in the waist... granted they're pretty well-worn and I wear them lower than I wore the SExSFxDB's when I tried them on.

Now this makes it confusing for me now. I'm a size 29 kinda guy and was planning on picking up a size 28. And somehow you managed to fit 3 sizes smaller? Sounds strange.

Then again it's hard to gauge since you didn't have a camera and have no idea how you high you wore the jeans. Either way, the denim sounds great. Can't wait.

Same, going to have to hope that the 27s fit (unless 26s are made, but I doubt that's happening), we'll see when a sizing chart comes out

[h2oyelnats]

hopefully the the final product will have smaller pockets, won't be as low, and the belt loop lined up in the center . Then I'll have to decide between these or FHs

I'm thinking the best thing to do is rely on the measurement chart Kiya will provide. I think my sizing inconsistency is more a demonstration of doing the compare-sizes-to-other-people-and-other-brands method for figuring out what size to go with.

I might be in san francisco again tomorrow. If I make it by self edge, I'll take pictures.

[h2oyelnats]

please do

Just got back to our hotel from the Dry Bones meeting 35 shochu drinks later..

The sample is now in the hands of DB, they're redoing it with the final denim type, which is different than what was seen on the second sample, and also with the modified pockets (smaller and higher), smaller leg opening, and coin pocket selvedge...

We should see a final sample in three weeks, and the poll should now be closed.

There is no sign up list, we're producing a bit OVER what the poll shows now and releasing it to the Superdenim forum all at once on the Self Edge website sometime during late January...

The denim and fit will be spot on, we wouldn't let you down if it's got the Superfuture name on it..

[Charlie Delta]

Poll now closed!

[h2oyelnats]

oo the excitement!

[rome1]

sits and waits patiently...

[almostnice]

Me too.hope the € isnt going worse.at least the releasedate is moved to late january.

time to save some money.

[rockon99]

PARTY ON GARTH.

im stoked.

[akuma no uta]

3rd page??? come on lets get stoked!!

[Potsnu]

Sounds good. Though I think you'll be lucky to have 75% of the people who voted on the Poll to actually buy.

Good move on the smaller pockets and moving it higher up.

[aho]

4th page bump....

dkatz, no fit pics??

[Boston.]

Its so hard to choose between the different contests going on but I'm holding out Kiya, can't wait for Dry Bones.

[Bigyen]

^^ look back a few pages and you'll shall see.

[kiya]

Just got confirmation on the complete order...

The final denim that's going to be used on the jean will be slightly different than the one that was seen on the sample...

Also, the fit has been improved...

I should have a final sample in two weeks or less.. and the entire run should be done by the first week of February, so we're about 8 weeks away from the contest starting.

I've said this before.. you don't want to miss out on this one, it's really a special jean... Cotton Duck sat in on the meeting with me in Tokyo last week and can attest to the fact that you'll be surprised once you see the finished product.

[bustinxjustin]

Can't wait!

Thanks for the update Kiya.

[MonkeyFresh]

great news, but otherwise im not so excited about the jean like before..

the next set of pics will make or break my decision on these jeans, but if they are like what you say they are kiya I'm sure i won't be disappointed

[who8mahrice]

Any possibility of the final specs being up by Nov 30th? That's the closing date for the Fullcounts pre-order. Not that I don't think the jeans will be amazing, but if I'll be able to fit in them...haha.

[kiya]

Final specs will be told during the first week of December...
