And to be fair, I'm bitter too! Didn't finish but not by my own accord. Got involved in a hit-and-run on my motorcycle on the highway at the beginning of November and split my jeans near in half. Been at SELA for repairs for two months so wasn't able to get any photos in to "finish." You win some, you lose some.

To be honest, it's a disservice to the IH forum. Sounds like a bitter kindergartener who didn't get a participation award. And now you are harassing people? No wonder they blocked you! Do I think the top three/10/20 were worthy? Not fully, I have opinions, and they don't align fully with the judges and the voters. But that's the thing with opinions: everyone has one. People complaining about the way it was judged? Only those who competed voted; from there, it was just the judges. Seems like the fairest way to me. I don't think there were deals under the table only to choose certain people. A popularity contest would only show who has the most friends or brand-loyal aficionados. I for one, would have liked to have seen Evan at number one, his Warehouse jeans look amazing. Just by finishing, everyone did a good job.

I understand that adding a bit of bleach when washing isn’t against the rules but jeez if that isn’t gaining a massive advantage
Might aswell just ask everyone to buy a pair of stone washed and be done with it

Who was adding bleach to their washing schedule?

@Kasi How do you mean?

I have been thinking about this during this competition, but a competition of this size with so many different brands doesn't really make any sense to me now. Over at SuFu, we are doing a competition at the end of the year: one brand, choose your cut using the same denim, and just ~25 of us. That way, you see how the same denim fades across various fits and lifestyles. They have an 18-month duration, so there is no stress about "having" to wear them every day all day.

8 months in, 12 washes...

About 8 washes now...

Finally got around to a photo.

I'm a ~36" waist and was on the fence about 35 (-1) or 36 (TTS). I'm went for the 36 and glad I did. The fabric feels fairly rigid and less forgiving, and I think the measurements don't show how slim overall they feel. In a good way, though.

5 months in for me on the SEXI26-ST...

Day 152/366 EOM5 update for SEXI26-ST

I've been waiting for the restock for some time, so I got myself a 36 today. I hope I get them before the weekend here in Los Angeles.

Day 60/366

There's the desk job people...and then there's the labor intensive job people. You gonna be in the top 10 again, I see!

@Cents-or-Non-Cents Cool Like the 109X4?
Will be interesting to see how it develops.

Not sure what 109X4 is?

More of a boxy fit. Can easily fit a sweatshirt and/or down vest underneath (for the moto) but also just a tee in summer. I have an APC Veste denim jacket but have worn it, so I can't enter that. And white canvas should create some contrast

RRY3 registration is open...

@JunkPants said in Redline Rally Y2:

@Cents-or-Non-Cents Now I'm curious, what is it?

It's a Stone Island jacket. White canvas but indigo "resin-plated," so I'm unsure how it will fade, or if it will, but time will tell starting June 1st.

Day 31/366 EOM update for SEXI26-ST

@Jcaz6996 Hell yeah, didn't realize how that works, but it's almost like a white elephant—you just don't get to steal someone else's later on.

I'm gonna enter RRY3, but have something very different compared to most of those entering. Unsure how it will fade but not sure I can do a year straight in the same jacket.

Now, let us know what prizes you get @Jcaz6996!

Damn, looking fine already! Owwwww
