Joris was one of the first to enter the competiton and it seems like he really has been wearing his Average Joe Dry Dirt Organic a lot since then. And it pays off.

Nice result & nice pics. Did the elephant help you out in the wearing & tearing?

We are proud to announce the first winner in the Nudie Jeans Wear & Tear Competition. The winner is Karin from Århus, Denmark. Congratulations Karin! And happy shopping, you have 500 euros to shop for in the Nudie Jeans Webshop.

Karin’s pics can be seen here. Maybe it was the snow angel that can be sen below that was the secret trick. The jeans turned out beautiful!

From Karin’s presentation:

I’m a jeans-girl – just can’t help it! Besides that i’m studying at the school of architecture in Aarhus. By the time this competition runs out, I will hopefully be an architect! These jeans will follow me night and day in the last dreadful month’s in school. And whether I pass or fail they will picture the process!”

Did you pass Karin? We hope you did.

Stay tuned for the next winner, it could be you.

Adam, did the sunbed have any effect?
