yeah... i figured. i thought i shoud do it now before i got anymore wear on them.

[Felix]

sammies stretch a lot so you might have to soak them on regular bases...

[beatle]

Finally - some sun....

[cheapmuthafukr]

[beatle]

I tell you - discovering selftimer is fun...

It's like I have a new hobby !

[cheapmuthafukr]

i know how you feel!

[horriblyjollyjinx]

did anyone measure the inseam after soak/wash? mine went from 98.5 to 95, instead of 91.5. measurements

[I_miss_lily]

Haven't measured mine but they fall perfectly for my height and I usually wear 34 inch inseams. I also soaked mine for a couple hours in hot water so I think I got all the shrinkage out. I just want to say these jeans are amazing, I knew I would love the denim but I was surprised by how much I like the fit, its perfect on me. Slim but not to tight, girlfriend loves my ass in them and they're not to low. I also love how there fading, I didn't get mine till like the 9th but theres already light blue spots around the ankles and on my thighs.

Thanks Beatle.

I took two inches off. So roughly a 34.

hey did you end up trying out that place that chainstitches? those sammies look nice man, maybe it's because of the soak, but they look much slimmer on some of these pics then they did on me when I tried them on at self edge...

[386]

My inseam was 99cm before soak and 94.5 after.

[beatle]

386 and beatle:

how long did you leave your jeans to soak to get that shrinkage? and did u use a dryer or hung them to dry? just wondering.

[beatle]

About 2 hours - really hot....it's not so much about time, but temp....and no - never ever dryer for me...

[Superstar]

Does'nt matter - ur a Superstar....

Haha, I guess Superstars can be slow aswell

But hell yeah we dig nice denim !

[Superstar]

Beatle where did u get ur Sammies from ?

Rakuten ?

[beatle]

We all got them directly through Samurai...

[Superstar]

Oh, now I see.

Was wondering how all you europeans were getting the Samurai jeans, especially the guy who lives in the northern part of Sweden close to Finland. Haha.

Hottest tap water available soak for like 6 hours and then hang dry. No dryer yet.

[beatle]

Sammie finally got some sun today...

[azn8oi]

Beatle's pants are lonely. I'll keep them company .

Btw, my feet aren't as flat as pancakes... it just looks like that because I shifted my weight to my heels + it's carpet. So yeah...

[mike501xx]

I would like to see you in those sams and the black biker jacket in the what jacket with jeans thread. I think they would look good together.

[azn8oi]

I would too ... Unfortunately, the only leather jacket I own is one my dad got a long time ago. The freaking jacket has POWER SUIT shoulder pads. Jesus the fit on me is damn nasty, I finally can realize this. :( :( .

I lack a cool jacket. :rolleyes:
