not so much.

[vjiforlife]

hope you fellas can help me. want to finally buy a pair of 710's but unsure on the sizing because im unable to try on a pair. Does anyone have sg 1105's or eternal 883 or 811's to compare sizing and fit or to give any insight? any info is appreciated. thanks

[shinobi2000]

much more snug than the 811s

Nice Foxy...where did you pick those up?

Initially, I placed an order with Take5 when Samurai announced the model release.

On arrival we noticed that the sizing was off compared the their regular sizing so I had to re-order through BiG...

Great service from both Take5 $ BiG!

Now drying after a wash/soak - it came as a one-wash...

[supersalami]

wow foxy, fit pics on those chinos?

[Foxy2]

Still drying - will take them to Berlin over the weekend and try to get them hemmed - maybe I get to take fit pics, too.

Fit pics people, more fit pics! Looking at jeans sleeping on beds is nice and all, but I'd really prefer to see how they look when being worn.

ok..thanks B_F and flash

If it helps at all I'm a true 29 inch waist and down sized one in the vx to a tagged 28. They fit perfect, after a warm wash cycle and I am expecting a bit more of shrinkage in the thigh and hem.

Measurements are.

Waist: 29

Thigh: 11

knee: 8

Leg: 7.85

Rise:10

Cheers, and as always big thanks to b_f for the sizing advice!

Here's some photos of my S5000vx I've had since February. I haven't been wearing them much over the past few months, as I've mainly been wearing my Roy RS04s, but I really love these jeans. It always feels good to put them on again, as they were my first pair of really nice jeans.

I wore them nearly every day, all day from February through mid april, then nights and weekends until July. They've had two initial hot machine washes, and two subsequent cold machine washes. I really like how they've turned out and am looking forward to having these for a few years.

For samurai jeans, should it be tight or have some room for the whiskers to come in?

[slipnslide]

Looks like I've packed on some pounds... My new size 32 710XX's are way too tight around the waist after a pre-soak. If anyone plans on getting these and wants to go for a size 33 and trade up let me know. Mine are still unhemmed/unworn... just the one soak.

Meanwhile, I'll be on the treadmill.

edit: actually they seem to be stretching out decent, I'll just keep em as an excuse to loose 5 lbs =)

Fuuuuck I got my sz 31 (true waist 32.5) sams 710xx lot 14 from BiG today but im on the fence deciding weather to hot soak or send em back, unwashed they fit really snug in the waist, how I would want them to fit after stretching but Im afraid that I might not be able to button them up if i wash -________-

Anyone else in here unable to button the top button(s) upon first hot soaks? will they really end up stretching back to the raw size?

They may be tough to button at first, but they will stretch back to original size. IMO if the waist is perfect now, keep em.

[udon]

Well heres some Pre soak pics...

[Mixture]

those are way to small. size up

[beautiful_FrEaK]

first...wear them where they belong...5" higher...

then change underwear...and then...mhh..maybe size up. but from my experience if you can button them up pre soak without any problems they will stretch out eniough

[melbatoast]

do you think you're jay-z? pull them up to where pants actually sit!
