Samurai Jeans

[hurhur]

hurhur whats your true size cause it looks like its at least one size too big

i wear a 31 in omingod and 30 in seXsc06. so i bought a 31 in account for the shrinkage.

[horriblyjollyjinx]

soak or you'll be sorry

better soaked than sorry hahahhahahhaaa

[hurhur]

post soak: soaked for 2 hrs, changed hot water every 30mins

jeans are still a little damp though. sorry for the blur pics. taken late at night. no natural light + lousy camera.

The waist has certainly shrunk and so has the thighs. do you guys think they can be shrunk any further? one more hot soak or wash?

[akuma no uta]

hot wash em. just to be sure

[cmo]

710 x 2nd collab been shipped and headed my direction!!!

[bernielike]

after wash pics, indoor color is probably the most accurate

Holy crap I love black Samurais

Cross post from evolution. Here's my Samurai s5000vx at about 3 or 4 months wear. Really loving the fade on these. These are lot 8 so they fit a little loose and are taking a while to break in. Love them though

[opethrapture]

Those have faded really fast for 3-4 months of wear!

[rockon99]

shit poly!

those are delicious lol

[Bigyen]

0500xx's. 4 months. 2 initial soaks. 2 soaks with soap to destink.

[chambo2008]

looking very nice, make me want to wear mine did you stay true to size?

[sbbbjm]

how does everyone suggest i size a pair of S0610LX? ive read a few schools of thought on here- true to size, or down 2, as they only run in even sizes. do they stretch much? havent had experience with texas cotton

true waist of 32

measure your waist - if you're a true size 32 than go with the 32.

i'm glad i did. i was a true 33 when i first bought them - hot soaked, threw em in the dryer to dry completely, and thought i had gotten all the shrinkage out.

i've lost 15 lbs since and my waist has gotten down to a true 31.5. i have soaked and dried them again, and they DEFINITELY shrank down a little more bc i put them on after drying and they fit pretty snug.

i can't imagine trying to put these on after the seconds soak/dry if i was still a true 33.

i'm of the school that def thinks that texas cotton takes a couple or so soak/dries to get full shrinkage out. mine fit perfect now. also keep in mind i dry mine (which some poeple think is sacrilege on here) if you just soak you might not get it all out.

[Bigyen]

true to waist. 33.

[fur]

am i crazy or do i remember someone saying something about a 23 oz model coming out.any info?

[sixsixtie]

Looks like Samurai started a 20 person contest with the S001JP.

[edmond]

Glad you're okay, but we need to see the battle damage to your sammies!

I don't know of a thread that basically discusses motorcycle wrecks and their effects on the jeans, but it doesn't really matter. A few months ago I took a spill and dragged for a little bit and I was wearing some 17oz Samurai Jins and they have slight abrasion on the ankle on one side but were pretty much unscathed. My skin underneath was fine, but on my elbow where I was also dragging (and I was wearing a padded motorcycle jacket) there was a lot of blood and scratches into the skin.

[Guest patchmb]

Hey edmond how is the sizing on those 2nd x 710's, can you tell me what the waist measures raw as i am about to order a pair in w34 myself..

[cocoquangs]

is there any way i can get my hands on buying the samurai tabs to sew on by any chance? my 710s so empty with out it seems like everyone has tabs but me T_T

[7-eleven]

The Samurai keychain comes with a tab on it. I guess you could use that.

[deadendpro]

^ lol, very nice.

Had the same bad experience with my sc okinawa,jeans came much better out than my trusty Vespa:

Did you take pics of your jins?

[ron2331]

idk if this is old news but supposedly black 710 are gonna be discontinued:(

[Mr HaGa]

^If this is true, I'm very glad I got mine when I got them. Great pair of jeans.

[386]

Did you take pics of your jins?

Yeah, here is one showing the damage. I guess the knee took a lot of the damage too, but you can also see the damage at the ankle on the right leg.
