Samurai S0710WX export model:

[emaze]

The fit on those is pretty bad, and that wallet is just hideous.

why so? do tell....

[greentea]

hater in the house.

[Telix]

Well the thighs and area above the knees are way too loose compared to the way they are bunching around the knee itself and the ankles. They are just too long, too, which is causing too much gathering as well.

I was referring to the giant tassled wallet, as well, which is just ridiculous and gaudy. I'm not a fan of any chain wallet, anyway, as I feel it's always over-the-top silly. That's just me, though.

[frideswide]

The salient feature of the 'export models' seems to be that they lack the red tab and Levis-alike back pocket stitching. This may be Samurai's solution to the problem of Levis legal action outside Japan, in which case it's reasonable to expect all third-party offshore retailers such as Take5 and BlueInGreen to eventually be switched over to the export line instead of the onshore domestic Japanese line. Sugarcane is apparently similarly redesigning its back pockets in response.

I was talking to the very nice chaps in Duffer of St George in Covent Garden the other day -- they said the Levis legal people had forced them to cut the red tabs off all their Evisus.

damn make me so jealous

i'm thinking of getting a s5000wx from take5 too

but it's $$$

[viv1984viv]

only just checked this thread, its a bit late but emaze- those jeans/wallet/boots all look brilliant togther. I did get a special feeling from seeing how the stitching detail on the redmoon is slightly blue, mmmmmm. The selvedge is novel too.

not to self: dont buy off dnarnya.

I think you should hem those pretty short and also pull them up in the back, would improve the fit.

[MilSpex]

They`re 501 repros, they`re not supposed to be worn like Dior, sorry.

[Cameland]

one thing i learnt from wearing my 5000s is that you cant wear them in any other way then that they were intended or else it just looks wack (like rirawins problem). i agree with HJJ that you should pull them up and hem. should make it look heaps better.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

They`re 501 repros, they`re not supposed to be worn like Dior, sorry.

I dont mind jeans being worn low but it doesn't look good with this pair, or at least that cut in that size on him worn like that.

They should either be pulled up in the back or pulled down in the front, it looks a little weird right now in my opinion, kinda in-between.

Also, I think that it's repro jeans that are usually meant to be worn high, not Dior's, which look better worn low.

[edmond]

is this the 19 oz s710xx? whoa i wan tto have a pair.. how much is it in hongkong bro?

[kiya]

We recently got these at Self Edge..

$295, free shipping as usual.

arcuates intact.

we only got one or two of each size though.. very low stock on these..

[edmond]

thats cool you ship to the philippines kiya? no red label right? dayymmm im wearing size 34's on skull 5010xx what do you suggest on these sammies?

[edmond]

hey kiya so what?

[Edge_Of_Denim]

The 710's are billed as "slim", right? They don't look like a particularly slim cut model. From the knee down they look slimmer, but in the thigh there appears to be more play than in so-called "slim" jean. The 505's look slimmer. Didn't the poster say he went up one size? Maybe that's why?

[emaze]

The ones I'm wearing are not the 19oz. They're the slimmest cut out of all the sammies I own. (my fav. cut by far) I'll try to post newer pic's....

[edmond]

hey emaze whta you got are the s710wx right?

[HEWSINATOR]

Am I missing something or is this not stated in the title?

[edmond]

1 month 1 soak (showered in hot ) size 33 here goes

[Pandemonium]

wow that honeycomb formation really looks... weird and crazy.

hope it turns out well.

[edmond]

actually i hate how it formed like that i like the ones that are bigger and have sharper edges...

[edmond]

here's some indoor piucs of my 1 month old s710's

[edmond]

whats ging on here? saw these when i did the indoor photos.. stiching's starting to rip off... oh man do i need to get these repaired?

[salaami]

the combs are cool, dont be OCD about it. they are shaped according to your body, and life. just stay alive so you can keep us posted--salaami--

[edmond]

thinking of wahsing these .. i can start to smell something... hehehe what do you guys think? 2 months of hard wear..

[Chponglasia]

I say go for it.

[emaze]

I just washed my denim contest sammy's over the weekend. & it was the best thing for it. I did it inside out, hot wash in the machine for around 30mins... hung to dry.

They fit even better now and shrunk just right.

[edmond]

hmm i might go for it and not making up my mind hhehehe... these guys are kindda snug on me .. anyways.. hmmm kangkong told me to go for another 2 months before washing..

[emaze]

hmm i might go for it and not making up my mind hhehehe... these guys are kindda snug on me .. anyways.. hmmm kangkong told me to go for another 2 months before washing..

[edmond]
