Samurai Jeans

[pat!!]

Fixed

More info on them Pat? How much wear, washes etc.

I've worn them for around 2 years, but been wearing my strike golds more in the past months. Soaked like three times, washed around 10 times? Thanks for the love everyone

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah the first week was really bad, but after that they fit fine now not tight. Im about a month or more in.

I guess we have to thank you for not showing us the direct post soak pics

It could really be that those will be even tighter after your first machine wash

@ Isneakerhead,

I think a fuller cut might suit you better. Also, I hate to be critical but those flip flops and white socks are a complete no-no. I'd suggest alternative footwear in future to avoid breaking more fashion taboos!

[501cult]

^Could'nt agree more. Spot on, Maynard!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^and that coming from you?

I'm backing Maynard on this one too. The S0500XX as a slightly roomier cut would be the better option

[501cult]

Yeah, sometimes I'm good for a surprise. But I have to admit, it's not just the fit, but in particular the "foot situation" (i.e. sandals/socks) that triggered my agreement.

[Sinji]

Yo Isneakerhead, dawg, nice sneake... wait whut? O_o

I don't think any pain could be comparable to the one after you wash those tights mate. Like previously mentioned, go for a looser cut.

[lsneakerhead]

Lol the flip flops was for the picture only. I dont dress like that for sure.

I only wear clarks, jordans and nikes.

Yeah but im always dropping and gaining weight from lifting.

So hopefully when I wash them ill be at 180. In a few months.

[stingray1381]

They are just riding up your ass like crazy. Not sure losing weight will get rid of the wedgie effect.

Convince me to get those bkb, thanks for the pic

*are they unsanfor or sanforized?

edit: nvm, recalled the last comment couple pages back, they're unsanfor

"all" Samurai denim is unsanforized

[Knugget]

Production on black shadows is complete. They'll arrive at BIG around next week.

what happened? been checking BiG multiple times a day for updates.

[Fincarelli]

I'm sure I would have already convinced you satya if I wasn't having trouble sizing these, the prospective expense of an additional pair having dampened somewhat my enthusiasm. Don't let this fool you though and don't sleep on these. The denim is awesome I know that my trouble now will be totally worth it; I am going to wear these a lot and I want them to be perfect. As you would expect, the zero denim is very slubby and the construction of the jeans is great. The super darkness gives way to a chalky white fade, and quickly too. After only two days of wear, the crotch on this pair is already showing some serious fading potential. I expect very high contrast fades. What I like the most about these is the blue stitching however. It kind of tricks the eye into seeing the jeans as a very dark blue instead of black. So cool.

LOL... Remember the PBJ 012's

[Satya]

@b_f

thanks for reminding me that, now this is the real black denim, somehow I thought that the bkb is overdyed, that's why

@fincarelli

congrats for the bkb, cant wait to see them evolved

[beautiful_FrEaK]

even if it was overdyed, it would still be unsanforized denim..just washed

but this pair is just a plain black pair of jeans.

and I look forward to the evo pics!

[kit99bar]

Gordon said they shipped on Monday. They will be here this weekend or early next week

I want those. Any reason on why I wouldn't want to buy them?

[Flash]

i like the denim on the JP jeans but the exposed selvedge and the silver rivets allways put me off , but thats just down to personal preference

[laxlife1234]

Yeah, personally I really don't care for the exposed selvage. The Silver rivets I wont even notice. But It's more like how do they fade? I'm too lazy to look, but do they have good fading properties?

[Flash]

well ive only seen the standard yamoto denim ( fades realy nice, lots of vertical falling ) when i was in Take5 and a guy came in wearing a well worn pair

but im sure the 17oz denim will fade simalar

Edited November 11, 2011 by Flash

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you have no money?

[saintkeat]

Flash you say the 17oz will fade similar even though you ignorantly missed out the fact they're a completely different fabric with a completely different indigo dye used.

Well done. Expected better from someone in these parts.
