LVC free-for-all Contest

[Medine]

So, here's the details..

1 year contest

pick whatever cut from LVC you want (as long as they're new)

let's shoot for an oct. 1 start date.

I e-mailed dejan at cultizm, and he's down to support the contest, but i still have to see if he will offer a discount but ill keep you posted..

Who's down??

[aho]

dibs on the sz.31 47's....

[dr.house]

Nice idea, but I've picked up my 44's 2 or 3 weeks ago and they're soked once...no chance to join in?

[Medine]

i supose just a soak doesnt matter, just hold off with wearing them

[dr.house]

Soaked, worn for 1 or 2 days. It would be a pleasure. Hope there'll be more news soon, it's time for an LVC contest.

[salaami]

im suprised no one thought of this earlier.

[setterman]

Would love to participate, but I'm currently involved in the Full Count contest, got a pair of Warehouse #800s I want to start wearing, and I'm thinking of picking up a pair of 1947 Sugar Canes before the weather turns cold. Too much denim on my plate right now.

I do like the idea of opening the contest up to the model of the participants choice. With all the various LVC models, there's no way you'd get people to agree on one.

[dr.house]

Time for a nice banner, time for rules, time to win contestants. Maybe LVC is interested to promote a contest?

[erbs]

I have a pair of unworn '37s sitting in the closet. I might be in on this; depends if I want to rock a looser cut for a year.

[blm14]

I have a brand new pair of 1915s which have only had the initial soak and are totally unworn. Maybe I'll join in!

[sayocean]

dr. hizzouse not to be a dick but I think contestants should all start with a brand new pair with picture proof that shows date and condition.... but I guess its up to whoever will be judging in the end.

[sayocean]

Oh, and I'm down to do this

[aho]

I personally like the idea of a free for all because of the variety...not too many people believe in the power of LVC so this contest would be a great way to showcase the different denim (Cone, Kaihara, etc.) and cuts throughout the line IMO...

agreed. we should come up with a "codeword" and tag it into the picture with the brand new pair

[L555BAT]

Damn I just bought a pair of 1955 501's soaked them, and wore them yesterday. If I fish the packaging or invoice out the bin can I join in? lol

[m0t3d]

I'm down for this. Hopefully I get mine in time before the contest starts.

they should, being that LVC is in a slump. but levis is HUGE, so they might just ignore you. here's the progression of faces you'll make if they do:

:rolleyes:''maybe they'll answer me back''

:o''it's been a week, maybe i should try again''

:confused:''WTF, i know they have someone who answers e-mails...maybe i was high and forgot to push send.''

:mad:'' fuck em', we don't need their permission to have a great contest''

:cool:'' i can't believe i put any hope in a billion-dollar corporate mega-monster , but oh well, im over it.''

:rolleyes:'' i wonder if i can score a pair of those thai fakes''

[Guest jbone45]

I'm down..I have a brand new pair of 1915's sitting in my closet.

[Medine]

If anyone knows a email to reach LVC could you shoot them one, and see what they say?

I got this from dejan, too..

Hey Mike,

it sounds interesting. We could offer for all contestants free shipping.

Hopefully ok for you.

Best

Dejan

[aho]

heh...free shipping is good enough for me! lets get this going!

[blm14]

Would I be allowed to participate with my 1915s? They're totally unworn and I can take pix to prove it

[aho]

I mean I don't mind either way, but if dejan is going to get behind this maybe it's better off if we only allow orders/jeans from his site? Not that I don't want to see everyone else's progress...

if he sponsors prizes, i definitely agree.

[JSFU]

i'd be interested but the cultizm site is lacking in measurements.

[blm14]

I _did_ purchase my 1915s from cultizm!

[dawei69]

I'm down!! free shipping rox!! any pair of LVC? can it be a jacket??

[jyoni]

I'd rather wait til January to start, otherwise VERY interested. There's been talk of a '44 contest after the STF contest ends, so maybe the people who are interested in that, could be merged here.

I'm sure Dejan would be pleased about it. He put up the prize '44s with the hope of a fresh contest coming together in '10. However, with the economy in the shitter for a big chunk of potential contestants.....who knows if it would even happen.

I'd be interested in this as well as I've had an unworn pair of 646 sitting in the closet and figured they'd be the next out after the 501 contest is over. I have a feeling that I don't stand a chance at winning the '44s, so I'd go with those.

Man, this could showcase so many under-represented LVC. Like aho said, the variety alone would be pretty sweet.

[aho]

Alright so dejan is asking how many people might be down, and that he thinks its a great idea and supports the contest...medine, did you want to keep organizing? I might as well help out since it seems we're both back and forth with dejan on the matter...I'll ask him about prizes and other logistics as well...

Also, for all of those who wish to participate that already own pairs, would you be able to provide proof of purchase from dejan? If so, I see no harm in joining...
