Samurai Jeans

[Guest nooblet333]

Fit looks good on you man!

Just got these 710xx, I can't believe it took me this long to jump into premium Japanese Denim after all my time with APC's and the like. The details on the Samurai's are AMAZING. I can never go back now.

Fit pics (yes, I know they need a hem)

How's the fit and thickness of the denim compared to APC NS?

[SNg]

The fit is extremely similar between the APC NS and the 710s with very small and subtle differences. The measurements may differ slightly since the 710s requires an initial soak and that results in shrinkage, but they should still be similar.

The denim is much thicker and slubbier than that of the NS.

There goes my plan to buy a pair. I was going between 710 and PBJ 013 and leaning towards 710 because it seemed like it had longer rise but if it is much thicker, then I won't be able to wear it in LA.. maybe if I move to NY or somewhere cold..

Pre-soak

Post-soak

Sorry for bad pics. Borrowed my better camera to my dad for his business trip.

Not much shrinkage though. The only significant shrinkage was the waist, shrunk bout 1.5".

I don't know if I should give it another soak. Any advice? :/

@boey,

any measurements of pre and post soak?

You can always go for another soak, or hot wash with the machine.

some close ups of my 710s 7-8months everyday

^nice close-ups!

@boey: from those measurements I would say there is still a fair amount of shrinkage left
