Don't sweat it edmond. You speak your mind -- sometimes it bites a little, mostly it entertains. Your contributions to this forum are appreciated and enjoyed by others. Plus, you may do another FC collaboration 😉

Quick shot of the coin pocket of my 710x at ~2months 

[whozdrew?]

S710XX, lot. 13

 

 

Haven't worn them in years and they're fresh from a hem. Can't believe I used to wear them at 35" (I'm 5'8"). They're much better now, around 30" inseam.

Shameless plug: I have an unworn Samurai undershirt size "L" (it's a small L) up for sale in the marketplace.

 

Edit: Sold!

My S5000BK with somewhere around 3-4 months actual wear. Love that Zero denim!

 

FULL ALBUM with more images than necessary.

 

 

 

These are my favorite buttons as the convex nature of the design produces some excellent button fly fades.

 

 

This pair is also showing some loose stitching at the front pockets that others have mentioned.

 

 

 

 

My favorite little slub-nub.

Those are looking great for 3 months. I actually like the dirty look.

Does anyone have experience throwing the 15o denim in the dryer for a little extra shrink? My S0500xx are just slightly looser than I'd like in the waist and I've already hot soaked twice. I went with the same size as my 710's and am wondering if I should have sized down. Something tells me the top block proportions would have been off had I done that.

Anyways- any stories about a wash/dry and shrinkage would be helpful.

try machine washing them about 40 on a low spin

Yea I'm think an agitated wash makes sense. Are you talking 40 celsius I assume? 

 

I'd rather not put them in the dryer since I've heard that can lead to uneven shrinkage. On the other hand, I've also come across plenty of people who always throw their raw denim in the dryer on low. I suppose it depends on the denim. 

[Flash]

yes mate , 40 celsius

I have the S510 15th 25oz and I got them a size too big. I've hot washed and threw them in a hot dryer a couple of times to get them to shrink AMAP. They still stretch out a bit after a few hours/days of wear. I've not had any adverse effects. They're still jeans, they're still blue, they're still fading.

Cool - so it sounds like you got more shrinkage out of the dryer as hoped for?

Putting them in the dryer didn't really yield any more significant shrinkage than just washing before. 

[Blue Nemo]

and besides, they are likely to stretch back out again anyway.

the middle way between flash's advice and the dryer is a 60 C wash with a low spin. This hasn't done harm to any of my jeans so far. Agitation always helps too. But all that doesn't prevent them from stretching back out again....

[edmond]

Fuck samurai they shoukd start making a 12.5-13 inch front rise on the 510... In a 14 oz texas cotton

[Raoul Duke]

First day on a pair of S5000VX 21oz...Now I remember why I sold the 17oz like 6 years ago. 

[Blue Nemo]

what? the denim too tough for ya?

[Raoul Duke]

Naw, it's just not a particular flattering cut on me.  

[Blue Nemo]

too bad man, its my 2nd favorite cut, thinking about getting the 510 in the same denim sooner than later. Or a flat head....
