Samurai Jeans

Recommended Posts

A little late to the party but Wrangpros FTMFW.

Are fit pics available somewhere? I am on my second pair of Jins and if I get fading like that I think I will be a happy camper.

Bought a 31 0500XX, one down from my usual size. They've been hot soaked once, and they're already a little tighter than my liking (though I think most on this board would call it slim). I did a search, but how much does XX denim stretch normally?

^^ in my opinion, its best to get all the shrinking out of the way at the beginning, so maybe another hot soak or 2.... just my 2 cents.

This has been said soooo many times but here we go again. To get the shrinkage out of sam's you need to soak them & then put them in washing machine at 40 degrees at least with no detergent & pull them out before spin.

Anyone have any experience with 811 and 0500xx ?

Are they similar cuts? or is the 811 more like a 5000vx ?

Im 34 waist got 36 811s, now im considering some 34 0500xx.

I own both, but in different sizes

811 is a slim straight, 0500 is pretty much a 501ish cut.

811 has slimmer thigh, 0500 slightly slimmer below the knee.

Both very good cuts, that don't work too well for super skinny people

Sizing question for a friend.

He's getting some Samurai S710xx's and can't figure out if he's a 31 or 32.

He's a 29 in APC New Standards. His true waist is 28", but his hips measure 32", and he wears his New Standards a bit above the hips with a belt, and he said those measure 32.5"

So i'm trying to figure out if he'd be better off with a 31 or a 32.

31 imo, i usually find that sizing 2 down on NS is best for the fit sufu likes.

so 2+29 = 31
