2009 Fullcount Contest thread

[edmond]

actually the one on top fits almost like a 55 type cut

[hysteric]

id be down, ive always wanted some mccoys too, that would be my top choice

[poopslush]

I would def be down on some McCoy's or smaller/uknown brand ish. SDA's are cool but I don't know if they will be beat enough by the end of the contest (12 months?), as they seem pretty bullet proof. Hopefully someone gets shit together before my Oni's have to be put into retirement.

Someone post up some possible McCoy's models and fit pics too if possible. (edmond?)

[Denim Phenom]

The Real McCoy S614, I think these are more on the slim side.

The only problem is finding a place that will have enough pairs available and accessible. I don't think any of the places that have them on Rakuten ship to the US either.

[Opie]

Nothing to do with the contest, but that is a damn nice fit!

[edmond]

t5 has them they ship anywhere in teh wurld

[40ozprophet]

ooo, looks like another awesome contest in the works! LHT is my vote

[themexican]

In thinking a pair of jeans with a 11-11.5 front rise, 14-15 back rise, 12-12.5" thigh and between an 8/8.5 inch leg opening. I can't fit into slim/straight jeans anymore because I've put on some weight and I cycle to work so my thighs are getting bigger. Plus, almost every pair of jeans that circulates through the board or is contested, is a slimmer fitting jean.

A contest like this will give the people who don't wear jeans like that a chance.

Real McCoys would be nice but they are expensive. I'm not particularly fond of a 66 cut and isn't that running with the Warehouse 660s? FOB151 are a slim/straight right?

Would everyone be into a jean like Oni's that have a lot of vertical fall or something that fades more like Sugar Cane, Levis, Warehouse?

Cheap jeans would be nice too, but not ones that will need a lot of repairs. If we set the price cap at $200 then I think we could narrow down our options. Maybe even getting a store to help us out with it. I wonder if Blue in Green would be interested in hosting another contest but with a limited amount of people. I'm thinking a 30 person cut off like the Samurai contest. Blue in Green also carries SDA and Sugar Cane's, both jeans that could be options for this contest.

Cheep, do you think Gordon would be interested in something like this or burnt out from the Warehouse contest currently happening?

It seems like there is some interest so I'll look around and come up with a few pairs to see what people think.

the straight fit Momotaro's from BIG are these measurements. super comfortable. the price is not quite what everyone had in mind

[poopslush]

If there were enough participants maybe we could get them straight from real mccoys?

[Opie]

Takumi could also be an option?

Pretty much an undescribed leaf..

[opethrapture]

Great suggestions so far guys. I might add one candidate while we are at it.

Sugar Cane slack Denim. Thougts?

[Opie]

Now that could be interesting!

If you could kick this of during the summer it could be great with some slack..

[flex0r]

how about SC 1945B? I think a leepro contest would be awesome, since we're all so used to levi's repros.

I think the 45s would be interesting. BiG sells them and I'm sure we could special order all the sizes we needed through them.

I think we should stay away from the slack denim because Selfedge is going to make a custom pair with it. I'd like to stay away from anything affiliated with Selfedge since they are already sponsoring a contest.

^^

But isn't that collab going to be a slim fit?

It probably is considering all SE collabs are slim fit. I'm not sure what the price on those jeans would be but we could look into it. I'd like to see examples of the fading on them first to see how they turn out.

[edmond]

pls no slim and no 66 cut please regular 55 cut or ww2 cut pls

[opethrapture]

How would you guys feel about something similar to the S0500xx cut. Enough room in thighs and taper from knee down? What other brands have similar cuts?

[edmond]

^^^ ehh s0500 is almost a sized down 66 cut

[Denim Phenom]

Edit double post.

I've owned the S0500 and S5000 which are both too small and contest/circulation favorites as that type of silhouette is very popular.

The idea of this is to run a contest with jeans that aren't the "norm".

[fre-co]

I'm liking this idea. So far from what I've read, the real McCoys look damn nice and they are some denims I've wanted for a while. Oni denim is fantastic but not for all. Plus I have a pair so I wouldn't be interested. Eternal could be interesting. I think Sugarcane could be a winner though because they are relatively cheap and wonderful jeans. Okinawas?

[opethrapture]

Well from my experince having own them both the s0500 has alot more space in the thighs then the 5000 cut.

Would be ok if they came in a longer inseam!

[fre-co]

Ah the sufu giants...

It's odd because at 6' 2" I have my jeans hemmed to 34" and still have enough for a cuff. But then I'm not a fan of loads of stacking.

[opethrapture]

How about some Ande Whall's??

[oohh AN]

truthfully, i think ande whalls SUCK.

they fade like cheap mondays.

KEEP THE PRICE UNDER 200!!!!!

and i still dont know what a "regular" cut is. someone give me a model that is regular cut.

[Decoy]

I am totally in on this! vote goes towards eternal but pretty much down for whatever pair is picked, haha. was pretty sad I missed out on the warehouse contest.

[knucks]

how about some regular sugar canes...union stars or even the 47s

[oohh AN]

how about people stop naming slim jeans

[Thorns]

I will highly consider this. My nuts need to breath after a summer month in these kmws.
