Samurai Jeans

[Episode3]

if your talking about the collab pair, its a limited run. 100 pairs i think. cant sleep on that

i'm not sure if it's the collab pair or not but the one i'm referring to is the 15 oz 710xx that has gold arcs, if it's limited then oh noooooooes!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

it's a collab and limited

[inthemix_]

is it much harder fading the 19ozs than the 15oz?

[Skip2MyPou]

Here are my Samurai s710's after a warm and hot water soak, and a hem. I'm trying out the double cuff.

Opinions?

...generally speaking, the heavier the denim, the harder it is to fade...

[rnrswitch]

Actually I would say weight has very little to do with. A lot of thin denim is extremely hard to fade, but the 21 oz sammies are pretty easy as well as the 19oz.

[Flash]

its all to do with the weave and the indigo thats used , also the cotton

[chambo2008]

wife spilled gloss paint on the back heel of my sams, pic's 2moz they also seem crap as stitching is coming undone all over the place, worn for 2months

looks like there is more shrinking left

hot WASH them and they should get more shrinking out of the way

Yeah true. I've seen flimsy ass 10oz wesc denims that hardly faded at all and the 19oz and 21oz sams fade real fast, the 24oz probably too.....

beating a dead horse - my 710's faded much quicker than my 0500's have - and they'll both look amazing when paired with my Bounty Hunters arriving in 3-5 weeks.

Holding up MUCH better after the denim doctors repairs (which cost like $100 but were TOTALLY worth it). The stitching between one of the pocket bags and the coin pocket is coming apart but that's about it since the crotch blowout for problems.

They're a bitch to fade, but after 10ish months of wear and a bunch of washes they are showing progress. Under incandescent bulbs they look almost unworn but in the sun you can see the streaks. Another couple of months and I'll put up some pix.

Man that's weird, my AI-10SPs seem sturdy as fuck (knock on wood). I've only probably given them 30 wears (been beating the shit out of a pair of AI-Ns and wanted these to be my dressy jeans) and I already got some comb fades starting. By far the "crunchiest" denim I've ever worn, even moreso than the 24oz in my opinion.

Sizing help from the gurus here:

I wear a 33. What size should I go for in 710s (from 2nd)? Don't want them to be skinny tight... a little loose/comfortable is what I'm going for.

[Episode3]

you can always refer to the first page, but if you insist... i suggest tts as they are already slim

[Hendodo]

o.O

you just said you wear a 33. if those are comfortable, then keep that size. if not loose enough, then you would mos def size up 1.

[NoobyBeast]

Anyone going to get them 24oz?!

[chantheman]

[NoobyBeast]
