Cultizm LVC Contest

[ADDIC]

I'm interested in joining this contest after deciding my next pair would be 1947s. But I have a few questions. Not sure which size I should get. I'm a W30. So should I get 30/34 or size up? And do they stretch much?

[dawei69]

well just to give u a reference, i'm 30w, and i got a sz 32x36. tried them on raw, a bit roomy in the thighs. I'm planning to soak them the take5 way (cold water from the tap, overnight).

[Tanner13]

I think I'll join with a pair of Knappave, I should order in the following days/week. I just wonder how it will turn out considering the baggier fit but I guess it will add some diversity in the contest.

[davety]

hey guys, dr house has twisted my arm so i've crossed over from mynudies to have a crack at this comp. haven't made the order yet, but will probably do so tomorrow with a 47. will keep you all up to date, still getting my head around the sufu interface...

hell yeah, we need more baggy fits, i got the 33's so we'll see how baggy they are, but they're definitely baggier then my 660's

[cloudhands69]

Hey guys.

So glad to see more people jumping into this contest. I know it's going to be tough for me to wait until December to wear them, but knowing we'll have a full roster helps keep me strong. Tanner13, it's cool to see you chose the knappave! I went with the 1915s and they will be a little looser than the jeans I normally wear, as well. I am a 30 waist and had few choices on the fuller-cut end of the spectrum.

Just in case it's useful, here's my LVC measurements from the spring produciton.

My suggestions for sizing would be to size up one inch, in the measured size, from your normal size.

So if you're a 31 waist, buy a 32 in the 47. you can size down even further in the 55, as these have quite generous thighs - this gives quite a cool 60s skinhead look. If you're a 32 waist in the 55, get ones that measure 32, even 31 would not be too slim. Similarly, the current 67 suits downsizing, and if worn undersized makes a slimmer jean than the comparatively straight-legged 47. Buy your actual size waist in the 1922 201. For the others it's a matter of opinion. Some of these are meant to be loose and downsizing doesn't suit; but for the 33 and 37, either normal sizing (one inch or two inches up) or downsizing works equally well.

I'm updating the LVC guide in my sig, as we speak.

Sorry I can't participate as I already have a bunch fo LVC (and SDA) under the bed but I'm looking forward to seeing the results. It's great that poeple are going for the more neglected cuts like the Knappave...

[dr.house]

Great job, thanks man!

[Medine]

So i was reading the first page and it says dec. 1 start date...

i thought we decided on nov. 1??!?!?!?

[LC_Miey]

i thought it has been mutually e-agreed on 1st dec...

[Medine]

ooh man, i must have missed it.. haha i was excited that there was basically only a month left

[Tanner13]

Yep, the Knappave kinda intrigue me, I like most of the features but I'm a bit anxious about the baggy fit. Slimer fits don't really suit me I think, I usually need something in between like a Nudie RRDS and I wonder if the Knappave won't be too oversized. We'll see...

[Medine]

I wanna make a pilgrimage to San Francisco during this contest

[aho]

Can we also do a carpedenim inspired old mining town dig meetup?

[Medine]

i would love to do some kind of adventure like that

do you not mean autumn production 2009

also with 55's how much do they shrink and stretch back out
