Ande Whall Denim

[dawei94]

I'm not opposed to the deposit system, but I think a lot of us would want some more concrete details before placing a non-refundable deposit. For instance, some pictures of the denim that will be used, and if the cut is set, or everyone can choose their own? (hopefully the latter). And when the contest will actually get underway.

Agree, would like to know at least denim, cut(s), cost before putting down a deposit

[kit99bar]

it's a given that you can choose your own cuts.

Denim information is good info to wait for though.

^This.

I live in SoCal so I'd like something on the lighter side, and if the contest denim turned out to be something super thick and heavy I would probably pass. I would want to know it's something I can wear in summer months before I throw $50 at Ande (which I have no problem with if I know what I'm getting).

[aleopold]

man, sign me up. fuck seeing what the denim looks like, guaranteed ande has that stuff dialed in.

[robotbox]

I emailed Ande and let him know that I've compiled a list, and asked him how he wants to move on from here.

So lets all just chill and let it happen naturally. The details will work themselves out eventually.

Looking forward to some experimental fabric!!

EXClTING NEWS A COMING!

[andewhall]

Hi guys. If they were to be made with all the selvage details, there would have to either 15 or 30 pairs for the competition. Poly and Robotbox are going to compile the names etc. So I guess the way forward is names, denim, design, dough, make, send, wear and win.

[grooveholmes]

whoa. amazing.

[poly800rock]

1) poly800rock.

[grooveholmes]

For real. I think basically everyone who ends up competing should concede the fact that they'll be battling for 2nd place, after poly...

[poly800rock]

it won't be hard to beat me, i take my time on denim, plus I don't wear 24 hours a day anymore.

I'll be sending out PM's to the list of 15 tonight and tomorrow. If anyone in that 15 decides to drop out, I'll keep going down the list.

Right now we have less than 30 people expressing interest, so we're gonna work based on 15 pairs for now.

Get excited!

[robotbox]

Alright, PM's have been sent to the initial 15 people, so please check your messages!

If anyone backs out, or is unwilling to commit before seeing the details/price, I will being messaging the next people in line.

[Christmas In A Submarine.]

Just got your PM Robotbox.

I'm going to have to hold off on committing, since I really am feeling a black pair and don't want to commit and then regret it.

Sorry for clogging up the main thread, figured it was better than clogging up your inbox given the flood you're about to get.

[Jackboot]

I'm interested in the contest denim too. Can I be added to the list please?

[Exit_40mph]

man, sign me up. fuck seeing what the denim looks like, guaranteed ande has that stuff dialed in.

+1 Count me in, people the worst that can happen is you will get a unique pair of AW jeans, there is no downside here.

I think basically everyone who ends up competing should concede the fact that they'll be battling for 2nd place, after poly...

This is true.

[Dochunter]

If we are giving preference to people who are initially interested, then count me in. Though I haven't posted in the thread, I've been following he development of the contest posts everyday.

What has two thumbs and would give his right testicle for a pair of Ande Whall contest jeans? This guy!

This was my reply expressing interest a while back. I didn't get a PM though. Sorta bummed.

Bummed as well. Really want to be a part of this.. Oh well, we'll see what happens

[Noodle36]

Please count me in, or put my name on the back up list or whatever. Is this how a contest works? Someone picks the list as opposed to who can commit by coughing up the dough? Not criticizing, just don't know how that works!

[d4nvu]

I too would like to be included in this contest. Does everyone have to wear the same pair of denim, or does can it be any cut?

[stresMaldo]

I'm in! : )

Real quick, I had emailed Ande originally asking him about the contest denim and this was his reply:

The Special Roll model is different from the contest, the Special roll will be the third model up in the webstore and will change when the denim is all used up. The contest is a separate thing.

I guess I misunderstood his original post. The three rolls he mentioned are the three options that will be available in his webstore.

The contest denim, from everything I've gathered, hasn't been decided on yet.

just an fyi, if anybody was under the same impression I was.

[dawei94]

Ande said that it has to be either 15 pairs or 30 pairs, and he PMed someone who replied early to get a list of the interested people. If we can get 30 people interested, then there can be 15 more people

Thanks for the clarification.

Imagine the possibilities!

Shitballs! How did you do that. Did you try to do a split while wearing Rakers?

I did something similar last week, though not as bas as that. Ripped my 14.5oz slackers along a whisker when I tried to jump up in the air for a photo in the snow. Hopefully Self Edge will finish repairs sometime next week.

I also ripped my grifters playing in the snow. Apparently I need to grow up and quit playing in the snow.

[yliafp]

skateboarding.. is yelp a reliable place to find a good tailor?

[dawei94]

self edge can do repairs on those, so can blue owl (there's a selfedge store in ny though so that's probably better than blue owl, which is here in seattle)
