                  Such great denim evolution seen here in this awesome contest.
                  Now we have reached the half way and until now I was standing far away behind the scene to not disturb you guys in this contest.

                  I'm happy now to announce that the little Jeansmuseum of heaviest fadings will just give a little half way contest price. I'll ask a little question concerning the cuffs of my out of the contest 25 oz IH jeans in 21 hours at 8 pm Middle Europe day light saving time to give all people a chance to win 200 US $

                  To make it as fair as possible and I'll put the question on the Superfuture HWDR2 thread ands as fast as possible here on this Forum as well. But I'm afraid it will be a few seconds later here since I'm not sure if I can upload the questions exactly at the same time on both forums. But I' ill try my best.

                  Here a little teaser pic about my cuffs where the question will be related to

                  The first one with the right answer will win this little price.

                  Good luck to all of you.
                  Can't wait to do this tomorrow

                          ….....Just 4 hours left until my little contest question will be updated here to win the $200 as a little donation from the Jeansmusuem of heaviest fadings for the 1 year anniversary of the HWDCR2......

                          And you have no big chance for early guess and yes, your guess is wrong @Snowy

                            From what or why  do my cuffs have a fading line going around somewhere in the middle?

                                  The line comes from the end of the (original) hem.

                                    looks like you've recuffed. Those different 'lines' were once the bottom portion of the cuff that rubbed and wore against your footwear.

                                      Thanks guys for all your guesses.
                                      The right answer is: It's the end of the original hem just ending halfway inside the double cuffs, which pressed against the outside layer of the pants and created this fading line during the regular daily wear of those pants. It's true that I also had worn those jeans several times on long ski touring trips with the cuffs very tight pulled over my ski boots during the last few months. But the fading lines where already there very strong before I started the ski season as I checked back on older pics. When I noticed this fading lines half a year ago I decided that this will be my contest question here.

                                      The first person who answered this correctly was given by Flo (Max Power) on Sufu just 5 minutes after I had posted this question at the same time on IH and Sufu Forum. What is still strange is that Sufus time is 9 minutes ahead of the correct time. But still then Flo was before van Olzen.

                                      Congrats to the winner and after I have received the confirmation of Mega that Flo is still in ( I guess so ha ha) and the Paypal infos from Flo (PM me or you can also mail me at ruedi.karrer@jeansmuseum.org), the 200 bucks will flow in to the winners direction.

                                      And here an additional little surprise price for the answer I had to laugh out loud: I know that people will get shorter when getting older and I'm already going to be 55 years old. But the answer from Chris (on the IH Forum) that I used to be taller 1 year ago beats it all. I hope even in my age that I'm not shrinking that fast yet ha ha .
                                      For this answer I'll send you Chris a special fun price of $50 if you PM me or mail me your Paypal account.

                                      Thanks again for all your answers and keep go rocking your contest stuff the hard way for another long time
