550ish days.

Boy do these not feel like heavy weight denim at all, soft and breathable. Gonna be no problem come summer time.

@MQR looking great! I’m hoping to grab a pair of these when they drop again. Considering hand washing too since my washer marbled my UHR. What was your method?

Update on the 295ib I’m doing for Re(pair).

@pechelman you know what, introducing a theme ahead of time might be cool. High contrast, slubby, vintage etc and judging off that theme would be dope.

@olblue always gonna be upset people at the end of a competition. Sorry you didn’t crack the top 10 man yours were definitely one of my favs.

@Alex i think he was last year maybe, he’s not this year.

@olblue the wife and I were just talking about this very thing. I can’t imagine finding judges is easy for Bryan so I don’t really blame him but I think I would prefer judges who have properly faded denim and are as passionate as we are.
All that being said I’m really happy for Scott he’s a cool dude and my UHR brother. I basically just tried to keep up with him the whole time.

I vote we just have Ruedi Karrer be the sole judge of the entire thing.

Just wanted to share this because I found it kind of interesting, I asked AI to develop a weighted scoring system for a year long raw denim competition that would promote fairness and it gave me this.

Wish we could work out a way to have the same judges every year. Would just like to know going in what the preference is going to be.
This whole thing is super subjective.
I also don’t think I like the collage that’s made for us.
I’d rather make it myself so the quality of the images and cropping of the pics are my own doing.
All that being said I’ll sign up again because I don’t care about the prizes or recognition.

@Yoprst really cool shots!

@Oaktavia beautiful fades man. I should have grabbed these last time they were in and just sat on them.

@pechelman I actually agree with you there. It definitely should have ended then.

@Matt rewatched all of Frasier recently that was a good time. The haunting of hill house was great. Dexter was good.

@jebrand man that 19L rocks too. Tough choices. I guess eventually we’ll get a chance to try everything.

I never liked any of the current popular TV shows like The Sopranos, The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, etc.

@jebrand I’m working on the 21oz and I get the hype now, it’s so comfortable.
Anyone else considering a second lap with re(pair)? I’m thinking I’ll sign my UHRs up but maybe do the XHS or ib version if I can get my hands on one.

Congrats everyone!
