Yeah I got a pair of these. It's weird that they're half selvage. I did a hot soak the other day and the whole bathtub went dark blue! They didn't shrink as much as i expected

selfedge is killing my wallet right now.

You will be pleased to know that the new production batch of Sammie S5000BKs are into Samurai-Japan this week. For those doing direct purchase, now is the time to contact them.

I felt the same way before buying my s5000bk's but now I have them I still want the pbj 005bk's, and the black onis are tempting too, and the black somets

You gonna nickname the black sammies Afro samurai poly ?

[sneakeraddict]

wow, that denim looks sexy.. The half selvedge looks sweet IMO

but my big question is why do all Japanese black jeans have to be 'slim' fit and do any of our treasured j-brands ever make a 'regular' fit black jeans, or dare I say it, a 55 cut or similar black jeans?

Samurai 5000BK... Denime 66... Skull.... Flathead 4001BK....

Slim, slim, slim..... Aarrgh!!

Amen! If it ever happens, I'll certain be right there with you in line to buy 'em.

Buzz Rickson does a fuller cut in black. It's from their William Gibson collection. If the SD-103 cut isn't too slim, Studio also has a black jean. I think you can find it on C-Point. Tangerine might have them, I think.

oni do the blue fit in black denim, though I cant remember if hinoya has any left or not, but yeah - they would be pretty regular fitting.

Holy cow... I didnt realise Studio D'artisans were so cheap!...

*Nervously thinks about reaching for credit card.... Gulp*

Everything is cheaper when you buy through Rakuten.

Edit: Jeans are typically a lot cheaper when purchased through Rakuten stores.

You may have won this battle Kiya, but i'll win the war. Just kidddiiinnn..

Actually, non-denim items such as accessories and shirts tend to end up the same price after shipping, etc..

he fucking better

[Sanctimonious Kid]

I have the Denime 66 Black and it ain't that slim. It's 501 style anti-fit all the way. I'll grant it's slimmer than a 55 cut, but just size up one if you're worried about it.

Yeah but Selfedge and BiG provide a great service for people who like to try on their jeans first, returns/exchanges and get expert advice in ENGLISH !

I was talking in general that even on Rakuten, those studio d'artisans seem so cheap in comparison to Samurais etc.

But damn, I read FlatHead (and probably the SDs too) shrink loads anyway, so these bad boys arent for me, so I give my jealous envy to whoever buys them.

More pics of those flatheads please...

[tangerine]

sneakeraddict, the DP-292 started out slim but have stretched a fair amount, you can see how they look now here.

Still, I guess they are not a true vintage cut, and certainly not as loose as a 44 or 55.
