Fit pics after a hot soak/handwash in the bathtub. They would surely slim down after wear and a hot wash. But I like it, it's something different from what I usually wear and it matches well with the 21oz

measurements size 34x36

waist: 32,5

front rise: 11,5

back rise: 15,75

thigh: 13,5

knee: 9,75

leg opening: 8,75

inseam: 37

[sixsails]

Can't wait To start wearing my 0500s the fit is great, alittle baggier then I expected in the legs but that's fine.

pre or post soak?

i had trouble with the buttons on mine, not because they were too tight, but because the button holes need to be worked in a bit before they get easier to fasten. are your difficult because the waisband is too tight or are they hard to button up even when you aren't wearing them?

post soak, even pre soak i didnt manage to button all..

i downsize 2, but it was hell after soaking....

tried a while ended up with bruises...so i thought maybe i can buy a waist expander...but wait, i can DIY it myself

LOLOL:D:D

[Alex3000]

My BK's stretched about 1.5" past raw and I sized up so its a bit loose for me, Im usually a 32-33.

B_F that fit is perfect.

Hey guys, I've been debating recently on whether or not to get a pair of the samurai 24ozs, is it really worth it? Personally I want to experiment with such a heavy denim. Does anyone have any fit/fade pictures of them for at least 7 months and up. Thanks so much guys.

If you are up to it then sure. I recently just got the 710s 19 oz and they actually put rashes on the back of my knees. It didnt bother me at first, but after a while I had to wear long johns for a day. I only had to deal with breaking in the denim for 3 days, but now they are amazing. If you think you can put up with wearing 24oz denim then go for it especially if the fit is good for you. Other posters know a lot more than I, but I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents.

I don't know, does this look like it's worth it to you?

looks a little grey cause I turned the contrast down.

I'm never going back, ever.

And dude, if you need fit/fade pics from 7+ months you aren't experimenting, you're following.

Here's me in my Samurai S0500XX 15-oz Texas Cotton (tagged size 28) bought from another SuFu member recently. He had done one soak. I did a HOT wash/HOT tumble dry.

[chantheman]

you are on a buying spree lately

[shubharamani]

you are on a buying spree lately

Indeed, fit pics in the Sugar Cane section soon ! They fit absolutely great, chantheman.

Ok Samurai 0140xj 7 months

Worn probably 5 times a week. Not as hard as my 5000vxs because as I've said I work from home now and don't have to walk anywhere.

Finally showing some wear but a lot, a lot, a lot more work to do.

[sonagi]

i have a pair of worn S0510XX III size 31x36 for sale if anyone is interested...

[beatle]

am I understanding your sale thread right and you never washed these ? Judging by the amount of indigo loss this sounds impossible...

[cocoquangs]

Dude alot of nice 710 pictures being posted up as of lately its freaking nuts!! I am gonna try to take pictures of mine in the sunlight because the contrast is much lighter when I am walking around in the streets.

[iGIT]

Ahh, im so sad. Lot12 710s are sold out on big and take5 doesn't have any lot12 710's left either. =(. Does anyone know of any other denim store in hong kong that might have it? Also what are some denim stores in tokyo that might have it? thanks all!

[morse9443]

agreed, something fishy about those.

Stacks - are you taunting us? please post some decent pics, looks like those are approaching amazing. and what do you mean - you'll never go back to lighter weight denim?

[Alex3000]

Morse put up some more pictures of your 500's, and according to my tracking number my BK's have reached uncle Gordon at BiG can't wait to get back into those not much time before Texas turns into a sauna.

oh no the no wash was just the description BiG had on their website in contrast to the one wash denim. sorry for the confusion

Don't really know where 2nd is situated, but I bought my 710xx lot 12 from them last week. Guess they got plenty left. So worth a try!

I like. I'm not following at all...i looking for fit pics because I don't want to buy a pair of jeans then not like the fit on them. But thanks for the pics though.

Do you have a fit pic though?

[Alex3000]

Well the 510 cut is a fuller straight leg, it's not intented to be a slim cut so

that may be what your looking for maybe not.
