Pronto Denim Carnival 2016

[louisbosco]

well you learn something new everyday. thanks G. i was thinking either feta or blue…

[Jett129]

The patch does look awesome. Denim looks sick as well. Hope I'm in the right place at the right time when these go "Live" so that I can get a pair.

Complete the form if you want an email when they hit…

[Jett129]

I'm sure i'm not the only one who will be getting an email when these jeans hit,and if I happen to be "Off the grid" when they go live,then I'm probably out of luck. Just curious-Have you actually  seen a pair/sample of these jeans,and if so what do you think of them in terms of the fabric translating to the finished product? Have they lived up to your/our expectations? Thanks–Jett

[Giles]

Yes, we have them in UK.  But they will not go live until after the denim carnival.  That is on the 30th October, but I will will be in SE Asia with @Madame Buttonfly until 6th November.  So we plan to make them live 2nd week November.  They are beautiful.

The only issue that some of you may not like is the colour of the arcs.  They are not traditional straw colour.  personally I love them, but they may he a bit Marmite….

[Jett129]

As always,thanks for the quick response. Don't believe I ever heard the word Marmite,before just now,and I'm still not quite sure what color that is,but it sounds cool. Looking forward to seeing these.

[Giles]

Marmite is black.  But that's not the point - you either love it or hate it…..

[Jett129]

Now that we've got that sorted out,I'm guessing it's just one more reason why I'm going to want a pair of these.

Read the news that the Thailand King pass away.

Is the event still on ?

[A Former User]

Yeah I was about to ask the same. Any updates on the situation?

[Giles]

Yes, I am afraid it does….Here is a note I just got from the Pronto team...

Dear Respect Guests

We trust everyone has learned of the recent situation that fell upon Thailand on the afternoon October 13th. The local authority have declared no events or celebrations are to take place in the next 30 days.

Moreover, our landlord has requested we cancel all events booked for the next six months.

Everyone here including ourselves have made great preparations for PDC2016 which was meant to take place on October 30th - but it would be inappropriate for us to look at the possibility in setting this up during the mourning period of our nation's father.

With that, we would like to officially announce that this year’s PDC2016 will be postponed to a later date.

We are looking at rescheduling this to March 19th (the weekend after the next CCSHOW Yokohama) and will keep you posted on the final date. We hope for your understanding and would request everyone to share this mourning with the Thai people.

Kindest Regards
Chnanon and the Pronto Denim Team

Thanks for the latest info.  I was looking forward to meet the Jeans maker.  I'm going since I already bought the flight ticket. I try to make it next year.

Let's go to Tokyo or to Gasport.
Flights by change.

[louisbosco]

[Giles]

We are still probably going to go to Thailand.  We have non-refundable tickets and we have to be in Singapore early Nov anyway…..
