710's just got 3rd? wash. About 2.5 years old now.

[Megatron1505]

Must spread Morse, they are beauties.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I also have to spread but will come back at you. really an inspiring pair!

[rockon99]

+1 must spread.. beautiful though

[Oldswag]

@Morse nice jeans

Was wondering if anyone knew anything about pencil cases made by Samurai? Seems like they come packaged with their more special jeans.

Is it wrong of me to want one? DIY pencil case made from scraps is also a possibility but just wanted to know about the ones made by Samurai or any other denim company for that matter.

morse those look awesome! gotta spread though

[DeForel]

^Morse, thats amazing.

I've seen some pics of nifty pencil pouches and assorted coin purses that come from Samurai when you buy them direct. Does anyone perhaps know if they are doing anything for the 003JP?

With tax and shippings its about the same as getting from BiG, but if they don't throw in anything special, I'd rather support BiG, plus the hemming. Anyone know? I checked rakuten but didn't see anything on it. Cheers guys!

[tvshooter]

Morse- gotta spread. damn impressive.

[Alex3000]

Morse those suck, if your 811's look anything like that I hope you'll enjoy that 2nd place gift card (10)

Just got some 710's size 30, they're a little loose probably should have gotten 29's, but I still like them.

[An Oxymoron]

if you already soaked them, soak them again.

my 710s shrunk the most after the second soak....

[dawei94]

I'd hot wash them at least once, mine shrunk even after the second hot wash (but not nearly by as much as the first hot wash)

Yeah I already ran them through two soaks. I think I shrunk him much as I could.

Better yet, do that and then let them hit the dryer. I was going to give up and sell my 710s because they didn't have the fit I was after and seeing around here, but I spontaneously decided to give them a go in the dryer today. I'm totally in love with them now, and they are still plenty crispy straight out of the machine, no wetting/drying necessary.

Lots of people have experienced Samurai's potential to shrink a lot, but their stubbornness to do so all at one time.

[Planetarium]

also sup hardcore buddy

Hmm I might give them a run through the dryer inside out to try to get some more shrink out, but if not I'm kind of ok with them fitting as straight leg.

Also, where are you from? Always good to meet someone into hardcore.

[Planetarium]

If your experience is like mine, you'll lose some in the top block so that the hip flare calms down to reasonable levels for new heavyweight denim, then the rest of the legs will tighten up just enough to make the silhouette more flattering, not change it entirely.

I'm from LA, not the biggest hardcore city, but I used to live in Boston.

[Phoenix_XS]

Nice, well like I said I'll give it a try, and I won't be too crushed if I don't get too much shrink out of them. Cause, hey there still Sammys.

[Guest nooblet333]

Good fit still man^^

I got some 003jp from the Samurai store in Osaka, and they threw in a few denim mousepads, stickers and a postcard if that counts?

[BlueOctoberFan]

They're nothing compared to the 710s that have been posted recently, but here's my LHT collection which have hit 4 months and 11 months of wear respectively...

S0110XJ

jins are lookin great , should realy start mine but its so hard to leave the 710's, plus rep

[kit99bar]

Blue, great vintage looking fades of a man who doesn't wear them too tight!

[Case]

Here's a few photos of my recently sold pair of 5000vx. I wore them off and on for about 2 years. They've been washed a bunch of times.

[Planetarium]

Yea, just one minute too recently...

Great vintage fade though!

[shinobi2000]

beautiful! you guys who are selling them faded -- are people paying jacked up prices for them or do u sell them for less?

[HAZARDkid]

^i would assume for less, or else i'd make denim a part-time job
