I just received some Lot 147’s and I’m pretty hyped. Does anyone have pre and post soak measurements? These would be my first wide pair of pants and still trying to figure out how to get the best shrink and fit in them. Thanks!

Inseam : 84/83 cm

Fr rise  : 34/33 cm

Back rise : 40/40 cm

Thigh in crotch : 35/34 cm

Knee : 29/27,5 cm

Hem : 26/25 cm

Do you mean LHT @vIGGiou riou?

yeah LHT...

Hi Tilmann. Yes, of course they arrived. Picture I posted in start of April was my picture I did. They are Orrizonti era.... very nice piece. If RHT will do same evolution as my vintage Lee 101 Storm rider jacket, would be great.

They are now vacuumed in queue and waiting for theirs time to be worn...

Raw measurements of W34 is

W 88cm

Fr rise 31cm

B rise 41cm

Thigh in crotch 35 cm

Knee 25cm

Hem 23,5cm

Inseam 89cm 

SC is almost in all types true to size. Just 1947 are in waist little bit snug, so many people buy them 1 size bigger... 

I think sizing of SC is same as Warehouse

looks like my patch, but I used only 30 degrees wash and NO machine dry...

really fast faders Maynard.... 

Today 100 days in. Initial wash and one more 2 weeks ago. Amazing denim of Denime... yes Warehouse/Denime

How are these coming along @vIGGiou riou?

I know you're in your 220a's all the time at the moment but I just picked up a pair of these 1000XX 25th Anniversary DSB as Hinoya had another restock, so I was interested in how they looked now.

Can I just check on your thigh measurement above also, is that Hinoya style (10cm from crotch seam) or right up at the top??

Hi Alec. Sorry for late response. I measure thigh just up at the top in crotch. They look same, without visible fading. I wore them last year only 50 x...

Ok. I take note of that. Waist shouldn't be a problem it has around 89 cm and usually it's going back to origin. And I think 5 cm of hemming off would be sufficient. Inseam is really very long 90,5 cm...

Did you buy the last W34 he had? I know it says sanforized but I doubt it is. Naoki said he wore this pair twice already and if he says its unsanforized, it definitely is.

Because of this I only cold soaked my pair as I am quite fat ATM. Gonna wash later when I lost some weight again.

Yeah, I bought last pair of them in size W34. Also Noaki wrote that denim doesn't shrink too much, but is not sanforized. Any way I plan to wear them next year, but would like to know how much cm's to let them hem.

Did you register some changes after cold soak ?

Maybe could be a reason I washed them together with FC western shirt. But it's OW and I washed it already third time.

And some more pics with better lighting 

Hi b_F. Can you please share your experience with shrinkage of those beauties. They have on inside patch SANFORIZED. I bought those Lee 101B repro from Noaki too. But Noaki says, they are not sanforized.

Did anybody register change of color of leather patch on 220A ? After initial wash, I washed them only once, almost after 3 months in. Wash was done in standard condition... 30 degrees, long cycle, inside out. After initial wash the patch was same as new.

Aww that's too bad. 50's might be my favorite pair at the moment, would love if they brought the black back some day.

Try SC 1947 black. They are now available in stores (after couple of years) and I think cut is very similar...

Fading of black denim is slower than blue one. Think I will start to wear them next January. This year I am due to the Indigo invetional busy with Denime 220...

I have also SC 1966. In size W33. Both cuts are completely different. 66 are generous in top block, while 47 are tighter in waist. 66 are tapered and 47 are loose straight....

Hello Guys,

I'm interested in S710XX25oz-25TH - 25oz "25th Anniversary Limited Edition" jeans from Samurai.

However, i never deal with Samurai jeans and this kind of heavyweight fabric before and because i lived in a country with no raw denim retail store around, all i can do is doing research on the internet to find as much info as possible.

But even with all the info that i can find online, i wanted to ask help from people of this forum to give advice on the S710 cut sizing for 25 Oz.

I normally wear size 32 or around 82-84 waist depends on the jeans weight fabric. I've compared several measurements chart for this produce across several retailer website and for one washed version, size 32 looks to be around 82 cm range.

So the question I'm currently need is, will this Sammy 25 Oz fabric stretch out or

I don't wear Samurai quite long time. But what I remember my 710 19 oz I sized up from W33 to W34 and they shrunk 5-6 cm. After wear they stretched 4 cm back and after couple of washes they stoped to stretch back. So they finished on unwearable level... Almost all denim pants  I have, stratch back to raw size. I think more heavy denim (oz) less stretch. But also, I have no experience with denim more than 19 oz....

So, along me size up...

nice tux. starts to show fading development...

and those Russells are on my wish list....

RIP Ande

Congratulations b_F...

SC49007 (1946) restock -- turned up in a few shops (Barnstormer, etc) but in one-wash only. Anyone seen a shop with restock in non-wash?

I scored just now one pair of SC49007 in NON wash version at Hinoya store https://hinoya.shop/en-ch/collections/sugar-cane/products/sc49007?variant=44502862332139

I took size W34 and it was in that size last pair....
