Jason, California, USA - 888NT

230 wears, 13 washes

Just awesome jeans by everyone, I only wish mine can achieve the same level eventually.

As life got in the way, I wasn't able to wear my jeans as much as I wanted to and are still in their infancy. I still love them and my favorite denim in my collection.  Posting final pics for formalities, when new, evos, a pic of me and my CHD heart warrior in Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, and final pics.

Awesome pair!  I hope mine start to look as faded.. it'll take another couple of years though.. [emoji1787]

A quick update on my Nama Tako after 11th wash.

Thanks Neph! She has 1 more surgery to go, maybe this August, just waiting on her cardiologist to confirm. As for the jeans, I'll try to get in as much wear as I can until the contest is over.

Update on my Nama Tako's. Sorry, been MIA caring for my baby daughter who's in between heart surgeries.  These jeans have only about 6 months of wear as my weight has fluctuated (lots of stress eating, unfortunately).

@spitfiredealer:

Thanks guys. I just hope the back catches up with the front. Otherwise by the end of it I could have 2 tone jeans lol

I have a solution.

"And everything is to the back with a little slack. Cause inside-out is wiggity, wiggity, wiggity wack."

@Chris:

Yeah, g-tubes are a mixed bag.  Our experience was pretty good.

Realistically, both are pretty shitty, though.

Agreed..

@Chris:

She on a g-tube?

She's on an NG Tube. Trying to avoid the G tube as much as possible, one of my wife's family's baby son had a bad experience with one of those.

Beginning to think it was a bad idea to join the contest while caring for a cardiac baby. 2nd time my daughter puked milk all over me. (Yes, it's milk and formula). I guess this will be a "wear often, wash often" pair..

@Chris:

I've had similar mishaps, from both ends of my children, though happily, not both ends or both children at the same time.  Iron Heart, Studio d'Artisan, and Oni jeans have all survived infant attacks.

@Chris and @YesBlank, ah yes, the diaper mishap. I had my old PBJs hit with a diaper blowout when my older daughter was a baby. I remember my wife wondering why I ran off to the washing machine so quickly that day. Good times…

Thanks @Matty123 and @Neph93, that's a relief. I did forget to mention that I used a bit of Dr. Bronner's soap in the wash, hopefully that doesn't "set the dye" like what it says all over the web.

Great… 6 days into the DWC with my 888 NTs,  and my 5 month old daughter puked all over them. Washing them this early won't really ruin the fading, will it? I'd rather not wear jeans that smell like putrid milk vomit.

@Megatron1505:

Great pic @jmg65coupe302 , as stated no auto emails so I'm going oldskool on record keeping.

The rules on posting are that you should post regularly if you want to win, by regularly I'm thinking a monthly update is not too much to ask.

Thanks Mega! This is my first ever contest and haven't really followed any since the very first Samurai contest years ago o n SuFu. Looking forward to finally participate in one!

@jmg65coupe302:

Since the contest officially started, i was wondering if everyone who has already registered for the DWC received their entry numbers yet?

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

@jmg65coupe302 I think it was specified in the other DWC thread there are no numbers.  Mega is just keeping a list of names and contact e-mails to my knowledge.

Cool, thanks for clarifying! This is my first denim contest and not sure how everything works (other than beating the heck out if the jeans).
