Samurai Jeans

[calvinouch]

710s, 8months one soak no wash. @ great wall of china. So godam hot that day. Bad idea but totally worth it. The humid air and my sweat seems to have made my jeans tighter. Probably gona need a wash after this trip

Does Samurai make a relaxed fit? I need a fullcut, comparable to AW Cougars.

Not familiar w/ the Cougars, but 510xx is more relaxed.

I don't know how the Cougars fit, but the 3000 is a more relaxed cut, coming with nice painted arcs. There's a black version as well.

I sized one down. They were VERY tight after my first hot soak. I had to get my friend to put them to help me stretch them out. They stretch pretty quickly though.

2nd has started mailing out the 24ozers, which also brings up... why would anyone purchase the 23 oz IronHearts for nearly 100 bucks more?

[Stacks]

can anyone who reads japanese explain what the deal is with 2nd and the 24oz's actually? For instance, size 33 says "Reservation 33" but size 32 just has the size "32," so apparently not all of the sizes have come in yet.

I guess what I'm asking is, is there anything on the page that explains when the reservation sizes are coming in? Google translate isn't explaining it well "Reservation minutes are due in around 9"

[paxmadam]

reservations will be sent around the 9th month, september

I just bought some Sammys from BiG and I can't wait to soak them. Does anyone know where I can get arcs and the red tab added? I'm down to go to Osaka.

[infinittiii]

if u wanted arcs and tabs why didnt u just go to osaka and buy them there? i know u can add red tabs yourself dunno about arcs tho

[selaviso]

yeah if you are down to go to osaka why didnt you just buy em there...

i was thinking about this... i want to go to a tailor and get the arcs sewn in and just cut a tab off a pair of levis at the store (blank one that is) if i do get a pair from big that is...

BIG sent one of those samurai lanyard with my 5000s. I've been thinking bout using that red tab for a while now. I just need to get Gordon to send me some thread.

I exchanged something and had store credit to be used.

I don't think denim weight is directly proportional to quality although, there is nothing about ironhearts I find appealing. So maybe the only reason to buy the 23 oz ironhearts is because Kiya told you so.

[selaviso]

the ih and sammie 24 and 23 oz denim looks the same to me... well at least the selvage does.

not a fan of the way IH's fade at all, especially in comparison to sammies.

[lowrider]

I own both IH 21oz and a pair of Sammies and I think they each have their appeal. I can't say much for the Sammy since I just got mine and they are natural indigo w/ bamboo dyed weft so I'm sure they won't fade the same way regular Sammies fade. But I think IHs are awesome. Here are my black overdyes after a year plus of wear:

Didn't someone on SUFU get the owner of Samurai to paint/sign his back pocket or am I mixing that up with Evisu?

that was the dirty dozen +1 evisu jeans.

no i just mean those two heavy heavy jeans cuz if you read what kiya said in the ih thread, he said that these will fade faster than regular ih denim because its a new type... so that got me wondering.

[Joweee]

Is the S5000Vx similiar to the Levis 539? Does anyone have some fit pics?
