          Not saying it won't happen mate, just saying that there won't be any "bells and whistles" next time.

          I still love seeing people's denim evolve, but I think it's time to strip the contest back to basics.

            I know you put a lot of effort into the current one mate and you did a amazing job but I gotta say I feel there was too many options. I think the best contests are where everyone is wearing the same jean or at least the the same denim weight. Back to Basics sounds good. Those old threads on Sufu when everyone was rocking Samurai 710's are dam cool. Maybe those days are long gone due the rise of social media and the ease someone can get raw denim.

              I'm totally with you SFD, if there's a next time we'll rock one jean, or one weight of jeans, and sit back to watch the magic happen  😎

                  I think a "one weight" would rock! Especially now that we have so many HEAVY options in the 555 and 777 fits. The guys who like more "fitted" jeans could slide in too!

                  In search of:
                  IHV-04, med.
                  IHSH-185, large
                  IHSH-186, large (khaki, and green)

                    Maybe a single denim contest with the new cut that's in the pipeline?

                          That sounds like a great idea. Would
                          Be even cooler if there was new or
                          Different denim to the 21oz. Not that there is anything wrong with it, I love it but a new denim in a new cut would be the dream
                          Contest!

                            Blue sky thinking (and that's all it is), I would like to do the new cut in the washed 21oz used for the Pronto collab. I'm wearing it now and it is bloody lovely  😎

                              See I was thinking new cut in OD 18oz

                              I wonder how drunk we would have to get Giles for that to happen….

                                        I think the only issue with limiting it to a cut of jean is not everyone can fit into the style. I'd love a simple weight conest, that way people could wear the cut that suits them in the right weight. But as someone mentioned, social media plays such a key role in things such as this, that it's good advertising.

                                        Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

                                          Hey, if we're going back to basics then why not just return the og format? HWDC resurrection,18-25oz, choose your weapon and get them worn. BOOM 💥

                                            I would go for that. Still like the idea of getting Giles drunk and him making a tapered OD 18oz pair especially for the comp.
