2010 Samurai LHT Contest Interest Check

[Alex3000]

voted the 0130xj aswell it's still a 510 cut though

[almostnice]

interesting discussion going on here.as long as you dont decide on a low rise,slim fit I would be in.

[Alex3000]

id love to see your mega cuffs on samurais

[almostnice]

lol,my cuffs are a natural progression,FCs where fucking 40" and the Denimes are not fully shrunk yet.

[raspberries]

oh man, i'd be down to join this contest! i was looking forward to the next contest so that i could join..

[mr.invincible]

why the shat is 710 on the list? im not down for another skinny cut contest.

if s5000vx is picked, i hope its 21oz.

[Knugget]

they make 21 LHT?

[iGIT]

Does this mean theres not gonna be an eternal contest?

[aho]

why the shat is 710 on the list?

I personally am against the idea myself (710), but its just another reason to vote!

iGit- eternal contest is still very much in the works but won't be set up until January IIRC...

[itschrisb]

Is 710 really that skinny of a cut? I heard it really not as skinny as people think plus I'm sure it can easily be sized to fit nice and fitted instead of super skinny and stuff.

[aho]

^They aren't really a "skinny" cut per se, but they're definitely slim...I think people are just tired of seeing the same cut over and over and want more variety...Plus many of us are just gaining weight... All around, I think a roomier cut would accommodate more people...I'm kind of wishing I didn't put the 710 in the mix lol but if its what the majority want...

Anyways, keep voting people!

[Knugget]

I'm also against the idea of a 710. It seems that a lot of interested people want a more fuller cut, and every new contest seems to go against the idea of a slim fit cut.

[kino]

the vote seems to reflect otherwise though

[Knugget]

wish we could see who voted.

[beatle]

wish we could see who voted.

the people..it's always the people

[kino]

i personally would like a slim cut because it will suit me better but any type cut would still be very special imo

[y7bbb6]

Definitely interested if there's no cinch

[chambo2008]

im down for my first comp, i picked s0500 as long as i can get it sized the same as my lot 10...

already have a pair of eternals 864 unworn might see if i can join the eternal guys also ..

[thephantom]

If it's an option, I wouldn't mind Yamato S003 like fit.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

please not the 710...

as for know here are way too much diferent opinions...we should narrow it down slowly. first only the cut, then the hardware and styling and then maybe if they can do a special denim run ant at last the patch.

oh and if the customization goes out of hand and Samurai won't do it: just take the 4 Jins cut, already existing

[hiro]

If it will be the 710 than I am definitely in. When will the contest start if it will be one?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

so I voted the 0500-cut. IMO it's the most versatile one. The 710 is again very slim and I see many younger users voted for that. The 5000 is pretty low-rise and therefore not that appealing to me.

Orignal I was after the S0110XJ-cut (or any of the regular Jins) but after this customization-fever broke out it doesn't seem likely.

My biggest concern about new cut with new denim is that the sizing will be the biggest problem and I see many pairs on the supermarket and/or trades already

[kino]

i'm sorry off topic but is s003jp slimmer than s710?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yes it is. but I doubt we'll find much who want that.

but for you as a woman it could be more attractive

[Flash]

what happened to the jin idea ? i think the jin's would be great and there is 3 different cuts

[beautiful_FrEaK]

it's even 4 different cuts...dunno. the customization went out of hand

[itschrisb]

I voted for the 710 bc I'd like a tapered cut. But basically what I'm looking for in the cut is something with a nice roomy top block without a huge tube leg bottom half. My thighs are fat compared to my calves and ankles so it just looks rediculous on me if there is a nice amount of taper.

[weinfeld]

Just voted for the 0500.

Aho, are we going to have the option on voting for arcs? I know you mentioned that Gordon said they were possible, and I don't want to give up on having those on the jeans.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

let's first decide on the cut...than the hardware and so on.

@itschrisb: the 0500 is also tapered and it has far more room in the thighs

[ssheat]

No 710 please! The 0500 is the perfect cut for a contest, it works for all different people. Maybe something that will work even better is two variations of the 0500, one with a more extreme taper, maybe .25 less in the hem, and one that is .25 more in hem. Then you have a slim, fitted jean with a smaller leg opening, and the average mid-high rise slim-ish straight jean. You wouldn't have to worry about different applications of details and stuff if you keep essentially the same silhouette.
