Heavyweight Denim Championships 2013-2015 - Official Thread

[tatmantall]

hey mega,
I just wanted to tell you and I am sure I am speaking for the greater majority when I say this, but am very greatful for all the time you are putting in to not only host the competition but also makes things available for us like the competition shirts hat belts jeans….. ALL OF IT! As Giles stated I think at times people have an issue with their manners.

It is an amazing effort on your part and you deserve commendation. On top of all of this, you have even managed to start the HWBC comp at the same time... I didn't get in on that one in time because was not sure what was going to happen with our IH viberg boot... I know that I am a new guy in th eneighborhood but you are doing a lot to help make this place a great experience.... and for that I wish to say

I wish to sincerely thank you for your efforts mega

[Megatron1505]

Thank you sincerely, but not necessary. I do it for my love of well worn heavy denim and boot pics

Hello Mega and everyone else.

I've been lurking the previous heavyweight contest thread since it began. It's  awesome to see the transformations of all  the denim.  I'm thinking about joining this one but not sure what denim to go for. Been wanting a pair of iron hearts for the past couple of years.  Is there and that have a selvege fly and lined rear pockets besides the 634-raws?

Another thing, I'm in dire need of a belt. If I order iron hearts and a belt would it be possible to ship those together to Chicago when the belts are ready?

Thanks again Mega and Beats for putting on the amazing contest.

We can certainly ship belts with jeans, and I would not worry to much about the selvedge fly, just get the right cut for you. After 2 years the novelty of a selvedge fly will wear off, the cut still needs to be golden.

You're in the right place for advice on cuts though, lots of knowledge, and IH has a cut for every taste.

666-XHS. All you have to do is figure out the size.

[Megatron1505]

And now we are joined by Van Olzon, we are 3 people away from 200 competitors  ???

[CLJ]

Wow!! Even with competitors tapering off as time goes by the picture thread is going to be enormous.

Are you f-ing kidding?  This shirt is awesome and the price is good.  I'm gonna be pissed if you people kill my shirt (yes, I'm one of the SEVEN that pre-ordered already).

[Megatron1505]

I know, when Vincent told me I was like  ???

I just assumed there would be about 50 orders or so, don't know what the issue is.

[Giles]

3/4 sleeves imo.  I love the design and the colours, just won't do 3/4's - same with Haraki….

[Chris]

Doesn't matter to me, I'll have them pushed up to my elbows regardless of the length.  But that's as good a theory as any.  I'm still mystified that only 7 out of 200 want the shirt, though.

[Megatron1505]

That's because you don't live in a hot climate, such as Texas or Mansfield 

[unharmed]

Preeeeeeeee-copped.

[Finn666]

I guess that this comp. might cost some guys an arm and a leg (hat, longsleeve, t-shirt, denim, boots) so maybe it's just a bit too much going on for some…sometimes less is more as they say! just guessing though...

You're probally right but I get picky sometimes with things. I just like the clean look of it more.  Most like I'll get the 634s because those are the only ones that would fit my thighs.
My current pair I measuered the thigh to be just under 13" and they just fit without them looking like they are painted on.
