Samurai Jeans

I just learned recently of denimio.com. Have they been around a while? Trustworthy site? I'd much rather buy direct from Japan and get a fair exchange rate rather than pay the BiG up charge.

^^ maybe you should report it to sandy from Samurai, even if it's just a heads-up.

Do you have an email address? 

[Aviv]

Nevermind. Here's some info: http://www.rawrdenim.com/2014/07/denimio-the-japanese-denim-retailer-with-japanese-prices/

She answered me from [email protected] and sent me a replacement backpatch for my Naniwa Special. Pretty cool, they even got the serial number right.

Yeah I am not crazy about the snaps. I may take it to my denim tailor and see if I can get buttons put on. If not it makes a cool lighter weight jacket to wear with a t-shirt underneath. But yeah for $68 I couldn't pass it up.

[Maynard Friedman]

That shirt gets more expensive every time you post!

[Cucoo]

Wut  snaps - and especially those diamond snaps - are the best thing about western shirts!

 

Well, to each their own I love that shirt, for that price I would've gotten two

[sardonicsmirk]

Yeah I might grown to like them more. I ended up getting $580 worth of shirts for about $140 yesterday. One of my better days of shopping

For those of you who don't follow the social medias, there seems to be a Samurai collab in the making together with Denimio.

Blue arcs. Haven't seen more details yet

[cmo]

Noted that... Wonder what the cut is??

[onehitwonder]

Noted that... Wonder what the cut is??

 

Probably 710 since that's a popular collab cut (like with BlueinGreen or Take5).

[Raoul Duke]

A few mentions of 34s/35s for sale on this page.  Interested. 

[cmo]

You are interested?? If so PM me. I have the 710OG in w35

[MKMKMK]

Guys, there some info regarding the Denimio x samurai collab..

Denimio S710XX16OZ-DMO collab jeans

- The cutting is based on the S710XX tight straight model
- Geisha 16OZ fabric with the pink/silver selvedge
- Button fly (golden top button and the rest are black)
- Wagyu leather patch with our own design
- The initial design of the back pocket is blue and green stitched arcs. We are in the middle of making the final decision whether to go with hidden arcs for a stealthy look.
- The back pockets use the same 16OZ fabric with 90 degree rotation which will create a different fading effect to the back pockets.
- A selvedge herringbone fabric is used on the front coin pocket
- Inverted A on the red tab which is positioned at the coin pocket.
- There will be 100-120 units available.
- The available sizes will be the same as S710XX's

[Max Power]

No way. Damn, I always wanted to have a pair in the Geisha denim. But they seem to have been carried away with too much details...might get them anyway.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That was also a favorite of mine for a long time...especially the combination with the 710 cut 

[louisbosco]

hmm. sounds interesting. might just get them too!

[bradl]

This sounds a lot nicer than the 24oz pair. Any idea as to when these are getting released? 

[Chubacca]

Pre order is supposed to go up in a couple of days. Too many tough decisions on which to get with this collab, 24 oz, and bkb

[louisbosco]

can anyone give me a heads up if the denimio collab is ready to order? i'm not on any social media platform anymore so i won't have a clue.

[Broark]

I might be interested in the Denimio collab more so than the 24 oz. 710, mainly because I can wear 16 oz. more frequently than 24 oz.!

If they go the stealth arc route and depending on how they turn out you can sign me up.

Dang dang danggg.

I have the S510 25oz 15th anniversary in 34, and had & sold the S510OG 16oz AK in 32. On my 25oz, the waist runs true to size, and they are too big for me by at least 1 size. So I went for a 32 on the 16oz AK's, and it seems the waist ran small on that lot. When raw the waist was too tight, so I sold. 

 

re: the thighs, yeah those measurements you listed look accurate from what I've seen. The thighs are very roomy in this cut. Another measurement that's not  ever discussed is the hip width - these are wide across the hips, i.e. an inch or so above the crotch seam, and that's what give the appearance of saddle bags on some folks. 

 

This is a great cut, roomy with a not-too-high waist. Very comfy without looking baggy. I'm strongly considering getting the S510OG 16oz AK in 33 form BiG while they still exist... but oh so spendy... but that OG 16oz AK denim haunts my dreams, LOL! 

 

what kind of shrinkage can i expect from this denim. the pair im looking at was hemmed to a 30 and thats the shortest i can go. need to find out of there is anymore shrinkage left in these or else im passing.
