Samurai Jeans

[wgmds]

why do they look indigo? is it blue warp dyed black or something? or just the light?

[Planetarium]

Just the light/camera phone combo in the fit pic.

Yeah I think I'm just going to stick with my wrangler Jins for now whenever they do get here. I had called Gordon 2 weeks ago and he said they would get to mine by the end of that week. Should take long too patch up one pair and hem the other.

What model are the Wrangler Jins??? Thanks.

Hey saintkeat regarding those 003 jp that u have not sure if u soaked em or not but just wondering how is the shrinkage and shretching on that specific pair?

[saintkeat]

Yuichi at Kaizoku Pirates did the initial hot soak for me so he could have them hemmed, they have not been soaked or washed since (heck its only been a month).

I know it shrank 1.5 inches from the waist in the initial soak and 2 inches on the inseam. probably 0.5 everywhere else.

These would stretch out if you want them to, like I prefer to sag them a bit so I started pushing them down to my hips a lot, now I could pull them off with a good tug without unbuttoning them. So give them enough time and effort, they would stretch plenty.

i've had some black knights for a while now just sitting around, because i dont really like the fit. can anyone please pm me a place where i can taper them? it would be really appreciated, i wanna work the beautiful denim!

[Alex3000]

You don't work black denim it works you. .

Anyway my jeans came in this morning Gordon is man, my BK's had a small hole in the crotch Gordon patched up the hole and then patched both sides and stitched them on both sides. Then he hemmed my Jins to a 33", the Jin denim is really something really rough and textured feel.

[rxin94]

how much shrinkage in the leg opening and inseam should I expect in 710xx 19 oz?

[DeForel]

Crotch rip on my 003jp after 4 months. a bit sad because the only thing physical I do in these is board around town.

sent them to SE LA and got 'em stitched up. Will post some post pics when I get a chance

Have you considered tapering them a bit below the knee? I think they'd look much better.
