Yes, masked bandits are poised to hijack the jean shipment. You caught on with your impressive investigative skills, comparing the twitter record to the styleforum record and noting a suspicious inconsistency. Excellent work, Holmes.

Chad has sent out ONE in each size to Mauro for delivery friday, so mauro can take measurements and photos off them and upload on friday for everyone to look at

Mauro will not have the full stock on friday, I presume those will be in his hand and ready to ship by early next week

Are you implying Mauro's 140-character limited tweets are ambiguous compared to page after page of repeated, detailed information?

i will have a size run tomorrow and all measurements and fit pics will be taken. then they will go on the blog and web. I will put them in the inventory and the selling will begin.
If chad happens to have a pair or two just paypal me and take them home.
I need to collect the cheese so I can pay Chad( factory ) and keep the books straight.

everyone in LA should go to his pinewood derby!!!!!!!

stayed tuned for pics tomorrow!

Thanks for posting those prototype pics today, I've been anticipating some preliminary shots since these were first mentioned. I like what I see and if I can get in on time once they launch, I hope to add these to my collection. They look great so far can't wait to see pics of the final product...get good pics of those "bells and whistles" too! I think this looks to have been a great collab.

My dial is tuned into this thread...fo sho!

a small detail: when mauro showed me the in-store prototype he said the black buttons would fade bronze. i think that will look really cool

IMO its because we're a pretty dark krew at the farinelli's, and the blackness reflects the turmoil of our soul
