Full Count 2009 Contest Redux

[SLAB]

WTF, my pair looks like new compared to mr hagas. great evo!

I'll upload some pictures myself tomorrow, gave them another machine wash a few days ago because they stretched too much (especially the knee area)

[daveo]

fckkkkkkkk im behindddd damn this salary man business

You're not the only one dude.

[salaami]

HaGa you'd better stop before people start thinking FC denim fades fast,LOL!

[Mr HaGa]

Thanks everyone!

fckkkkkkkk im behindddd damn this salary man business

wesc,whats the problem with being a salaryman? i am a welder and cant wear mine to work,means about 6-7 hours a day and weekends.looking at my pair i think iam not that far behind from pwing or Haga.its all about what you do in your leisuretime.

[wesc]

i guess i do a lot of nothing in my leisure time ? haha a lot of light wear with it i guess .. after work its hanging at home then weekends its like walk around the mall with the gf or something.... very light wear.. what do you do in your leisure time then !? climb mountains on the weekend ?

[almostnice]

having two little kids helps a lot.after work i go often to the playground with them,resulting in sliding down sledges,playing football,or soccer here in europe ,and yes,climbing trees from time to time.i also have to tidy up the flat after they caused a lot of chaos resulting in great kneefades!

[JayFourEyes]

I've noticed a stronger fade on may left knee from kneeling to pick things up and change clothes and stuff on the little one. Laundry day by the way.

ha i guess ill have to convince the gf to pop out a few of my own ? ..........nah.

[almostnice]

why not keep the pants on while you are enjoying yourself? would be the the best bet having no kids! sorry iam drunk! do it like Klue&co,climbing trees just for fun,explaining people walking by you search for your nephew,niece,son... you see,the list is endless.no excuse for being a salaryman!

[JayFourEyes]

Gentle machine wash 40c, little detergent. Never seem to take pics in sunlight so it's inside with flash. Fairly accurate colour.

Kind of tighter post wash fitpics. With the Rokin boots I just bought for the right look.

[salaami]

yup, it's all about what you do in your down-time. 'hard-wear' can mean wearing them consistently for long periods, or just whenever you do wear them it's during strenuous activity, or both. the more active you are while wearing the jeans, the more they will show it. the denim never lies. there's nothing wrong with a nice slow fade however. nothing at all.FC indigo is not really fast to fade...i'm about to post pics in the evo and repair threads, if you want to check em' out...

[Mr HaGa]

I only wear mine to work, I usually change out of them when I get off. The cut and size are perfect for work, but I wouldn't want to wear them all the time, so I rotate 2 other pairs when I'm off work...

[pwing]

after repair.

great pics everyone, keep going hard mr haga! peace.

[Knugget]

dammit i cna't give rep to pwing and haga..but wow.

[tvshooter]

^yeah, me too. I'm really diggin all the stuff you guys are posting. i know some of you are ready to try something different after this, myself included, but a two year of this contest would be intense. Salaami has already stated this but i'm just sayin it again.

[Mr HaGa]

I'm going to keep wearing mine long after the contest ends I'm sure... I know they can go alot longer still.

[Knugget]

seriously the denim is extremely durable and the indigo takes forever to fake.

[Snake]

I'm in. Should we start a list?

1. tvshooter

2. Mr Haga

3. Snake

anyone else?

[Mr HaGa]

I meant only that I will keep wearing them, people are still wearing sam and 660 contest jeans and they're going strong... I don't really want to change the terms and make it a 2 year contest at this point though.

[Snake]

Sorry Mr Haga, didn't mean to put you on the spot. My enthusiasm got the better of of me. My apologies.

I was hoping to get a handful of us to wear the contest jean on a consistent basis for another year. I would like to see the full potential of FC denim.

[almostnice]

this contest wii end in march for me,than its Denime time.but at no doubts this pair will not spend the rest of its life in the closet,these are just too awesome.one i would ever buy again,but next time probably the 1108.

[SLAB]

My pair of 1108 - seven months wear - 5 washes (actual color is lighter but again failed to capture it on picture; my picture skills suck)

crotch rip in the making

some fit pictures

[tvshooter]

damn SLAB! those are lookin good. nice shoes too.

[BrownMetallic]

@SLAB__ another 1108 to aspire for. nice!

[salaami]

i would love for all of you to wear the jean until it's unwearable(i know i will), but i know how hard it is for some to go that long on a pair. the rules are already set, so@this point perhaps it would be unfair to make the contest officially for 2 years. but maybe not, since prizes haven't been officially announced...just my humble opinion.

quote:''I would like to see the full potential of FC denim.''--snake--

i'm working hard on it daddy! after repairing the 1108s i feel like i'm just getting started again with a new pair of raws! for me @this point nothings beyond repairable...i'm in it FOR THE DURATION.

on another note the samurai contest was so hot due to people posting pics of the shit they do in the jeans every so often. that's what makes the FH world tour and the yofukuten one so tight. i love almostnice for posting pics with the kids, and just doing random shit. with he ,pomata and atzec in the denime contest it's a guaranteed burner. what i HATE about the samurai and WH contests is that my favorite people from the contests not only stopped wearing the contest jeans when it was over, they stopped posting on sufu altogether. i don't know if they fell out of love with the denim, or what. beatle and cheep,lil'dave and poly800 are the only ones who still post on the regular.

[wesc]

to frankly honest these things are so durable that i can simply bet that i'll be wearing these for the rest of my life i mean considering how much "leisure" activity i do outside of salary man concept ... its pretty much a safe bet that these will be with me my whole life, i would post some pics but to be frankly honest ive got next to no wear compare to other ppl

[Mr HaGa]

Sorry Mr Haga, didn't mean to put you on the spot. My enthusiasm got the better of of me. My apologies.

No need to apologize, man.

Great picture! Aldens?

[setterman]

Washed my jeans again Tuesday. Now that the weather has cooled, I should be able to get back on a once a month schedule. Took this photo today, under overcast skys. Color is pretty true though a little on the light side.

[almostnice]

setterman,great vintage fades,love the cuffs!
