@xtcclassic:

LMAO at Giles for being the biggest "commenting in the pics-only thread" offender.

I don't read the feckin title of a thread when I make a comment.  It will continue to happen….

We should have a mod exclusively for G's posts…

Announcement

It is with immense frustration and disappointment that I must announce that the sponsorship of The Denim Vault has been withdrawn from the HWDC2.

The reason behind this is that we have quite a few contestants (myself included) who have not yet received their sponsor tees, I have personally been promised the tracking numbers for the shipments by Vincent twice, and he has also ignored approximately 11 further emails asking for information about what is happening. If I cannot trust a sponsor then I cannot work with them.

I am extremely sorry to all those members who have not received their shirts, and to those who had errors made with their order. I advise you to seek a refund using the following email address…

vincent@v6.co.id

If you have no luck with this then please use the Facebook and Twitter accounts of The Denim Vault to ask directly, and failing that please begin a Paypal dispute for the payment.

If after a period of weeks we have not reached a satisfactory conclusion of refund, please contact me and I will refund you from my own pocket in the order contacted, and as my personal funds allow. If we have to take this final option then I am afraid that the second HWDC meet in San Francisco may be in jeopardy, as I simply will not be able to afford it.

Once again, my most sincere apologies. Can I ask that we keep the discussion on this to a minimum, if you have any further questions please contact me directly.

@joesaintjohn:

Man, I really struggled with the buster fit because of the rise and boxy top. But, after a few days in them, I really dig their vintage dust bowl/greaser look on me. Men weren't always so obsessed with the way their jeans fit, and I think that lends an air of cool to them. It's like the difference between dudes that obsess over perfect hair and meticulously manicured eyebrows and those that have a disheveled nonchalance to them. I've always dug the looks that fell into the latter. I say the cuffs really highlight that idea of "zero fucks given" cool. Rock those jeans with confidence, and they'll be the coolest pair you own.

hmm…when you say greaser,now i'm going to "zero fucks given"..might even do a single 3 inch cuff,with a badass boot.
but i do notice that the MBB or the BB fits nicely with a pair of boots.does this mean viberg??argh being broke sucks.

[Anesthetist]

That sucks Mega, are the hats done for as well?

[Megatron1505]

No, the hats are perfectly fine. They are being made by Ebbets Field and shipped by Jimmy Crow.

[Chris]

And Jimmy is totally reliable, so no worries there.

Sorry to hear about The Denim Vault.

[zwer]

I think these are the best jeans I've ever owned.

The denim, is awesome, of course, but the cut. THE CUT!!!!

Amazing.

[Nerkg]

The Beatle cut? I'm not a fan. I tried to like it, but top block with just horrible for me.. Mabey different body types

[wariosss]

I have to agree with zwer love my fit, but I admit that it wasn't love at first sight

Nicest day of the year! 69 clear and sunny

[1moarlap]

Nice pics Nerkg.  I guess I'm a bit of a sap, but I like how many of your pics seem to have family time as the main feature   Looks like fun was had by all in covering you with those wood chips!

[Licorice Noose]

Sorry to hear about TDV. Vincent was always cool to me in past deals. He has a couple of my pairs up in the shop. Pants look awesome Jestre!

[unfairgunfight]

If this situation happen, for the winner event, you will not come to singapore/jakarta too? 

[Megatron1505]

Vincent has been in contact and assures me that anyone who requires a refund will

Interesting evo going on with this awesome 17oz. Ironheart denim

@Licorice:

Thanks LN!

I hope all of you love your new contest jeans as much as I love mine.  Because I am going to bring the ruckus for this one.  The SEXIH13's rarely receive respite from my lower limbs.

HC-IH-62

A day in Kojima.

Went to the annual Inazuma fest and the place was packed.

There was a rock, paper, scissors contest and I managed to win a cap and 2 tees. Too bad it wasn't one of the main prizes but don't look a gift horse in the mouth, right?

Bumped into the N&F crew.

Went outside to the festival area because we wanted to check out the Jeans St. and surprise… We found the brand new Kojima IH store doing a pre-opening!

Met the boss and he was really nice and friendly. I think he wasn't very sure about my choice of jeans for the contest but still gave me some advice -to do squats-.
I scored one of those lined IHSH-71 beauties.

Jeans street was fun.

The flavor of the month.

We had such a blast that I'm sure we will be back soon.
