[RedHeadedStranger]

[horriblyjollyjinx]

yes

[Shishido]

really? where are they sellin em at?

[toufu]

rakuten?

no where in the US thats for sure =P

[PG2G]

My guess is its the discontinued 505 but with 19 oz denim. I'm just assuming that because the 710WX is the export model of the 505, so it'd kinda make sense for them to follow the same numbering.

So this is the recontinued version of the 505?

I keep reading people say it is, but just want to get complete verification.

Either way, its their slim cut. 7.5 leg opening, somewhat relaxed in the thigh, and one pair of denim I wish/hope to have another pair of.

If only they made them with a 34inseam, or even a 32, Id be really happy. Im tall, but I wouldnt mind having a lot of slouch with these.

stuntastic:

no, this is not the old 505XX. but it is the same cut with 19oz denim.

all sammy's come with a 36 inch inseam so you have nothing to worry about. in fact, you might want to get them hemmed, if you're not into cuffing or stacking.

if you get your jeans at BiG, they stitch them for free on their vintage union special.

[dancancer]

Im pretty sure these have been out already.

If they are the ones with the two color selvedge.

[kiya]

Very odd that every place is saying these are brand new.. We've had these exactly jeans in stock at Self Edge for two months. same model, same denim, same black arches etc..

[poly800rock]

the exports don't have the red tab though right? these aren't the export models right? don't really care to be honest, have too many samurai as is.

[PG2G]

The WX is 15 oz, these are 19 oz. They have the black arc like the WX. The WX is red/blue selvage though, and these are blue/blue. And yeah, no red tab.

[rocker4life]

what cut is this?straight maybe??

[M.O.A]

wow, those are cool. So they are or are not modeled after the 505?

[horriblyjollyjinx]

710 != 505

You guys think they would make a new model name just for fun? They're similar but not the same.

[M.O.A]

i want a pair. Kiya how much at the store?

Yeah, the cut may be a bit different now that I read through the page. The translation comes up with "It is the thinness which is close to samurai S0505XX" whereas the S710WX translation says "As for silhouette the same as S0710BK and S0505XX, thin straight." Though, I guess its kinda hard to tell with translations

yeah, but even if the cut was exactly the same it doesn't mean that the S0710 is the S0505. Different details, different denim etc. There's more than one thing that makes a pair of jeans.

It is wrong to say that the 710 is the __ of the 505, instead you should say it is the same/a similar cut.

[stuntastic]

Theres a 710BK?!?!

I need those.

The ones at Self Edge are the 15oz 710WX. I guess they just made them with the heavier denim. Most likely not much of a different feel. Compared the 15oz with the 19oz Samurai denim, about the same feel to them.

Either way, theyre really nice jeans. Im satisfied with mine.

710BK is from a few seasons ago, was a limited edition Pictures of worn S710BK are the reason everyone was so excited about the S5000BK.

i don't think many people give a shit about the denim. maybe denim weight, but i don't think there are many people that pay much attention to the denim. I think people are mainly excited because of the slim fit.

[Guest jeffvyain]

and the buttons!

we'll see how money treats me over the next few weeks. i may have to actually purchase these...i was planning on holding off for a while, but i've been pissed at myself ever since i passed up the 505s

[Chponglasia]

I'll definitely be picking up a pair of these from BIG when they arrive in mid-January.

[sycamore no more]

I'm so picking up a pair when I get $krilla.

[dino might]

*these had the silver "sword" selvage, not blue/blue

Oops, I saw a baby blue for some reason

[stuntastic]

710BK is from a few seasons ago, was a limited edition

Thanks for bursting my bubble...

[moondog]

man its this or some red moons, i wish i could feel this one, or just touch it a little bit.

[Chponglasia]

OK, so I was all set to grab a pair of these when they arrive at BIG this month, but now I've just learned of the SDA D1293's, and now I don't know which ones to get.

The only real denim I have right now is a 4 month old pair of SD103's which fit and look great, but I wanted my next pair to be a heavier denim, and I've been swayed by SF Samurai love, which is why I was gung-ho for the S710XX's. Now I'm not so sure...

Any thoughts? (and please don't say both...)

Thanks!
