Samurai Jeans

[raspberries]

kk thanks for the advice!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

no problem!

may I ask what size are those and what's your waist size?

[raspberries]

i am a 37, and these are a 38.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

ok. sizing seems to be right

someone here with a rather unusaul Samurai model which wasn't seen around the board or internet too often and is still in a new or nearly new condition? A rare collab, some old deadstock pairs, some of unpopular cuts/models?

[daynym]

@ raspberries: I think a single cuff will look much better.

[kit99bar]

I bet sagged down a bit they look great

it's the s0500 cut.

i pulled them up high hence the crotch tightness and the assmunching. i'll retake pictures in a bit. they're not that tight.

pat! Those look great!

For everyone who haven't seen it yet. This must not be forgotten.

The Seven Samurai!

The first real denim contest, I think. Started 7 years ago, a one-year contest.

Would/could be fun to do a little contest like that with 7 guys again.

Good stuff B_f!

First fit pics... Please excuse the lighting...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That fit IS pefect!

Did you get them hemmed or is it the original lenght?

[riff]

Thanks - appreciated! I had 2nd wash & hem to a 33... Gives me room to cuff, and I expect that further washings will give more shrinking over time.

I learned the hard way (with my first APC's) to not hem too soon, or too short!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

from official measurements they are a tad slimmer through the leg than the S0110XJ and S5000VX.

How's the rise? How did you size? TTS or SDO?

[riff]

The rise feels close to the 5000. I SUO to a 31, but these guys still feel trimmer in the upper block than my TTS 30 in the 5000.

But that could also be because of 2nd's heavy duty wash/dry, and because I haven't stretched them out yet...

[Alex3000]

Riff those fit like a glove I guess I would size up on those like I did my Black Knights which fit fine but are loose in the waist. But if these run slimmer in the waist and thigh I guess I would have to size up one as well. Between these and the 811 contest I'm torn.

soaking my s0110xj now ill get some fit pics up when there dry

[ranonranonarat]

those are a perfect fit riff, can't rep. but really is spot on. great man!

Coin pocket:

Cheers!

+rep, nice Sebenza!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

man all those LHT awakes my lust for some the S0110XJ again

[Flash]

ive just soaked mine beautiful_FrEaK and they fit great ive just started to soak again then im gona send them for a hem , i bought a pair of 5000vx too before i left hong kong there from lot 13 with the new arcs , i realy like the black stiching and i think they have changed there leather too because it seems ever so slightly thicker

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah Samurai's leather patches were always on the thinner-side so that's a good info.

What Lot# is your Jin? They didn't change anything about them, right?

Except they moved the LHT denim production to a new mill which may lead to a little change in the denim

[Flash]

there lot 12 mate and no details have changed , the denim is beautiful

Thanks for all the nice comments & +rep, guys! Always appreciated!

Good eye, Commodorewheeler! My favorite one ever - highly recommended.

Alex, they're definitely not loose in the waist - yet. Hoping to get more stretch as they get settled. Yes, I debated over the eternals as well. But after being so disappointed that Aho's fabulous LHT contest couldn't happen this year, I couldn't wait! Really happy I went with these! Awesome details & fit! And nice to have something so different from the other denim.

[Alex3000]

According to the size chart on BIG's site they run a inch bigger in the waist.
