DWC - Denim World Championships 2015 - 2017

[Megatron1505]

Although the new contest will not be forum based outside of its own web space I thought it might be a good idea for the members here to have a space in which they can discuss this, or ask any questions that they might have (as I am here more often than elsewhere). It also allows me to make contest announcements as and when I have them to anyone not following on social media, and I'll begin that with a couple of very exciting announcements on competition jeans and boots …..

Are the Foot Patrol Boots the only boots for the BWC or it´s possible to enter with another boot?

I have never seen the contest before. As near as I can tell you are supposed to wear a pair of jeans for two years and the end result is to be judged. Correct so far?  I see there are many categories for weights. I wouldn't really consider doing something like this except I think it would be rad to represent the great people who run this place. My question is does this BB heavy jean breathe much? I work outdoors in Las Vegas and six months of the year super heavy jeans would be potential torture. I might be able to suck it up in 21oz.(maybe) just wondering how this denim would work. I'm really hard on pants and usually just blow out Levis and would not consider wearing high $$ jeans for work. That being said I probably have some nice potential for knee wear(more like wear out) and those creases on the back of the leg. Summer is usually for shorts here. So, do you think this is something I might want to take a crack at and have some fun, or would it honestly be a bad idea because 2 years of beating jeans up to potentially nothing left even sooner and being hot and miserable is what I'm staring at? By all means please be honest. Thanks!

[Giles]

Do NOT consider the 21/23 UHR denim if you live/work in a hot climate, they'll be torture….

[fanya]

Weave is tighter than the 25oz after a soak?  Also do you think the 21/23 will be faster or slower fading than the 25oz?

[Giles]

Weave is tighter.

21/23 will be faster and more contrasty (IMO)

[Cfk87]

Thanks for the honest answer Giles. I appreciate that.
