New 710 update on Blue in Green Twitter.... Black and blue offerings

I saw those too.

"Preparing samples for our 2013 Samurai 710 Collaboration Black and Indigo "Hawk Series" - The 710BK Black Hawk and Yellow Hawk set to start things off this Spring."

I'm definitely intrigued:

[Max Power]

So these are the said collabs...Indigo is hard to resist. 17 oz and slubs as it seems.

I`ll just stick with the standard 710xx with arcs and tabs direct from Japan :P

[Max Power]

Good for you but what are you so proud of?

[Sugar Mountain]

The ability to kop moar jawnz?

Good for you but what are you so proud of?

Why do you ask me what am I so proud of?

[Max Power]

Maybe there's another way of interpreting three flashing tongues and the mentioning of arcs and tabs, that I didn't see. It just sounded like mocking those who buy at BiG, that's why I asked

I think anyone who spends enough time on SuFu, or has ever been to BiG, can answer this question for you. I'm wearing 710s purchased one month ago from BiG and they don't look much different from those in the picture

So I'm looking to purchase a pair of Samurai 0510xx.

I just measured my waist and it's a true 34" or so below the navel. I've got generous thighs/butt (tmi i know) , and I used to be able to squeeze into a size 31 Sugarcane Okinawa. I was thinking about going TTS re: the guide for the s0510xx.

Does that jive with everybody else' experience? Thanks.

Maybe this fit guide from B_Freak can help you

The 510 is quite generous, so I'd guess you'll be fine.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yes TTS or SD1 like I did, it's all possible.

So a size 32 should/could work

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

Thanks guys. I ended up measuring my true waist (34") and went TTS.

I opted out of chain-stitching, just in case.

Need advice on sizing for Samurai 0500XX from BIG. size 31 or 32?? (I have big thighs)

For reference I'm wearing these right now:

Somet 005 sz31 - these are the perfect silhouette, but too low rise, need more room for my junk and a bit more in the thigh too

Eternal 811 sz33 - These are great fit, but silhouette is not as nice as Somet.

[Mild7]

^ My 811's are sized the same as my Sam5000vx. Both 34. Both perfect for me (not tight not loose in the waist) Not sure if 0500xx fit same though, sorry.

Somet 005 sz31 - these are the perfect silhouette, but too low rise, need more room for my junk and a bit more in the thigh too

Doesn't quite sound perfect to me if it could be improved on 2 counts.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I take the same size in S0500XX and S5000VX..and I'd also look into the same size if I was about to buy a pair of Eternal

Edited February 8, 2013 by beautiful_FrEaK

[Max Power]

Same size in all Samurai and Eternal Models here as well.

[BrownMetallic]

mine as well on 500/5000 & 811

[confucius37]

Cool thanks for the replies. I might try sz32 in 0500XX

I have the 811BG onewash version so it was basically full shrinkage when I got it. I also wish they were a little slimmer knee down, which looks like the 0500XX is going to be if I get sz32. Also like the fact that it would be a touch lower rise, the Eternals fit a little high on my waist. Thigh measurement is identical.

811BGRAW sz33

waist: 34

front: 11.75

rear: 16

thigh: 12.75

knee: 9.5

hem: 8.75

0500XX sz32

waist: 34

front: 11.25

rear: 15.75

thigh: 12.75

knee: 9.25

hem: 8.5

Any comparisons of the stretching of Eternal 811s vs 0500XX denim? Thanks again.

my 500XX W32 stretched to 33.5

[confucius37]

Any chance you could get a BIG style thigh measurement? I've got 32 waist but big thighs

Edited February 8, 2013 by confucius37

W32 500XX u/t= 12

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

Hmm, need some advice on s0510xx sizing again.

Received my 34" pair of s0510xx from BiG, but I've got an inch to spare in the waist. I'm going to trade it in for a 33", which seems like the best idea. How much do these guys tighten up in the waist post-wash?

Thanks.

[drew_breeze]

waist is not a big deal to me, if i like the way the jeans fit overall and the waist is a little big, i wear a belt.

This x 100. Bigger concerns should be does it fit your thigh well, your knee and does the hem width suit your body shape (no point in wearing carrot shape if you look like a muffin top).

You have a belt for your waist. Belts for your thigh do not exist however.

[Rightyow77]

sorry to derail...

Finally got a pic of my S5000VX 21oz.

Well it was the best I could do. (yes I am mid thrust) Haven't hemmed them yet, so monster cuffs at the moment

Edited February 11, 2013 by Rightyow77

[po_boy_fuuma_hatesbargerz]

Feels like the hip flares/sizing is far too pronounced compared to previous pre-soak images, so I'm sizing one down to a 33. Any other advice/input?

Edited February 11, 2013 by Just Another XY

[beautiful_FrEaK]

taking the S0500XX in size 34 maybe?

What's Samurai's closest interpretation of the Levi's 1947 501 chaps?
