[salaami]

i've e-mailed them several times about how much time i had left to register, and if my 'aftermarket' patch would be a problem, but no response. i've been trying to hit up fung for weeks...

I've never received an answer from them...

^I gave up on contacting the "info@take5" address and just contacted gardnerfan directly...He's been prompt and very kind to respond to my various inquiries even though just getting back from vacation...

Your request has been forwarded to Take 5. I also verbally informed them your request. I think they will contact you asap.

Many thanks! I just can't wait to get started...so much catching up to do but I'm not too worried...

Nice pics MHP. I wear my Denimes in rotation with my 47's LVC.

x-post from myNudies:

It's pretty much fun, cuz' both pairs are so completely different. But every time I wear the Denimes it's like comin' home...

[salaami]

MHP, the fit is perfect. are those doc martens' boots? they look perfect with jean and bike

[tvshooter]

^agreed. food looks good too!

[MHP]

Thanks. Yes the boots are good old Dr. Martens.

[mr.invincible]

^ can't rep MHP, but that fit is perfect. good pics, too

[pomata]

yeah great pics mhp and perfect fit too

[gardenerfan]

Thanks. Yes the boots are good old Dr. Martens.

DM X Denime is my favorite style. I am an old DM collector, especially those Shelly's DM.

I'm too impatient but wow I can't wait to get these...can't say how many times I've read through this thread over and over, but hopefully Take 5 shipping will surprise me as it has everyone else once they actually get back to me and tell me who to pay, when the jeans will be available, etc.! Not to rag on them, understandably they must be busy given the holiday/new year season...

[salaami]

gardnerfan agrees, so i'm in good company!

They ship faster than many other brands that i have ordered from directly. this is one store that has great service!

[aho]

Unfortunately I'm going to have to step out of this despite wanting so much to be a part of the contest...I didn't realize that the discount no longer applied to later participants and I just can't justify shelling out $374USD (hemmed and shipped) for a pair when I could get them much less from BiG...Anyways, best of luck to all participants, I am mighty jealous of you all but it looks like I'll just have to watch from afar...

[amardeep]

that's a shame aho

sounds like more time for the LHT contest though

[pomata]

3 months update

not much fading, I love this denim!

[appfaff]

nice pomata!

those boots looks super-cool w/ the denimes

[salaami]

looking good pomata me boy! beasty boots my dude. i bet that pup will bite the fuck outta you if you step on em'.

lot#775 have been getting their ass whopped this week @work in the ole' tobacco warehouse. it's 2 months tomorrow, i'll wait a month before i beg lendo to snap&post some pics. with the FH tour, i'm sure he's fed up with pics for a while

damn, $378? that's a grip. you could probably get the 20th anniversary evisu or the 20th anniversary denimes for that much...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

nah, for that much you just get the No.1 denim

[salaami]

or some really nice natural indigo jawns. thats my next move after the contest. gotta go move some concrete slabs by hand. tonight's wash will show the ass-kicking these have gotten this week.

yeah, that's the main reasons I never joined the contest. when I contacted them I didn't enough $ to snatch up the last week for the 20%, which still made them like $335USD after shipping and stuff, haha

We should have organized a visit Take 5 in person, got a 20% buyers card, and got them for a super deal!

ha contest is looking good guys!

[almostnice]

salaami,did you manage to sort a digicam out?whenever you talk about your daily duties i wish you could feed our needs with some pics!

[salaami]

i know my dude, but $$$ is tighter than virgins soaked in vinegar...when i get my tax return, a digicam is first priority. lendo doesn't live far but i don't want to bother him to take denime pics with the FH tour here in richmond. he's got enough on his plate. when i get my cam i'm gonna make you dudes tired of seeing my jeans.

speaking of the jawns, after i got off of my usual 8-hour gig(in which i busted my ass today), i had to move some(6) concrete flower pots for my moms, and those bitches were at least 90lbs each. i had to carry them on my thighs since i had no help, and i'm 135lbs wet. guess what, my thighs are faded as all fuck now, and i got traintracks from the concrete scraping the sides of my legs. sounds great, right? well superphysical toiling does have it's drawbacks, and now i have NO whiskers, cause the indigo that pools between the whiskers and gives them contrast/definition is gone with my wash-water(wash#7, dr. bronners baby soap). the whole front thigh is white. my bad, i'm substituting blathering for pics...btw i machine dried them on high heat. i haven't gotten them out the drier, but i'll iron them if they have some weird creases. can't hurt @ this point...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

my only hope is that you destroyed your pair before it can be judged

man, we need to see pics!

[big truck]

Clearly all of us except salaami are in the wrong job! Would love to see pics soon. Mine show little progress but I will post pics this weekend. Ciao for now

[Atzec]

but when i wasn´t, i took my denimes on some winter hikes. here are some impressions:
