So, Its no question to those I love that I love volcom jeans. Actually, I really like volcom clothes as well. So, the story starts like this. I wrote a blog entry about the top ten things that I want, a wishlist of sorts. Anyhoo, this article as you can see was written on March 28th. A few days ago, I get this comment on my blog from a guy named shane that claims to be the IT administrator of the Volcom site. He tells me he wants to send me a free pair of Volcom Jeans, go ahead check it out for yourself.
So, I send him this email in response to administrator@volcom.com:
Shane,
This blows my mind man. You wanna give me some free jeans? Ok, I’ll blog about your great company if this is for real. Here is the info:
What do I want? Volcom Ergo 2 Jeans size 34 waist, 32 length
If you don’t have those, anything full leg and whatever you think

Here is the response I get back from his administrator at volcom account:
Ok, done deal.
Thanks,
Shane
If this is true, screw apple, Volcom is a cool company. I’ll post back with more on “The Jeans that were”
haha! that’s faukin awesome! can he get me a volcom beanie for my special place?! Hehehehe.
Blogging with benefits!
Ok, here is the update. nem0, I think it is NOT blogging with benefits. I think that Volcom is too l33t a company to actually be generous, in fact Volcom is the kind of company that likes to make people feel special, when in fact they are screwing you over.
You know how Volcom jeans are $60-$80 a pop, yet make you feel cool? I think it odd that the Volcom IT guy shane made me feel good by offering free denim. It turns out that really I now feel like crap. The reason you ask? Here is Shane’s most recent email in response to my ever so cheesy email.
First lets start with my email:
Man I hate reading my own desperately cheesy emails. Pretty bad eh, here’s buddy boy Shane’s response today:
Nice. I guess a wish list is truly a WISH list and the answer to the age old question has been answered. Santa Claus is NOT real. :(
Shane, I hope you have a nice life with that kind of karma floating around.
What a jerk.
Shane,
Do you want people to accept you as you are or do you want them to like you? I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you, you dreamcrusher.
Ok all,
Now I feel like the idiot. Shane, you are a good man. Today I received 2 shirts, 2 pairs of jeans from Volcom.com. My apologies for the pissed off comment. I think it was the whole “Have a nice life” comment is what got me questioning.
So I will comment further on these articles of clothing as soon as I get the time, but I do say thanks to Volcom.
p.s. The age old answer to the question “Is Santa Claus Real” is YES.
p.p.s. Volcom is now cooler than apple. Maybe my I love Apple link will now be I love Volcom. We’ll see ;)
thats great love! VOLCOM RULES! SHANE RULES!
Haha, hooray for Santa, erm, Volcom Claus.
Hello Everyone,
I am a golfer myself and I like to play whenever I get a chance.
A short while ago, a very good friend of mine told me about a great golfing equipment and accessories website that has discounted prices on all their products, same day shipping in most cases and there is no state sales tax, they are paying that.
So if any golfer here is ready to save some money on quality products at highly discounted prices, you might want to check out their site at; http://hoffmangolf.com
