Samurai Jeans

[IM SOLE CRAZY]

I just bought a waistband stretcher to ignore all that hassle!

[KicksNotBombs]

Pussy, man up.

[edmond]

yeah man up buddy.. you dont deserve samurai if your a pussy

[fndmybetterhalf]

alright, decided i cant dig the 0500xx cut too much...so they're going up for sale.

Samurai 0500xx sz 31 with tab and arc - $280 shipped in US. barely worn, soaked twice. PM me for more info or check supermarket later tonight for pics and such.

[KicksNotBombs]

Awww, they looked really nice on you though.

Yeah I agree - you probably have one of the best 0500 fits I've seen. If I were you I would definately stick with them... You're call though

[fndmybetterhalf]

Its just the crotch/hip/thigh area of the jeans are so weird fo rsome reason. idk..maybe i'll hold onto them for a week ro so and think abotu it.

possible trade for a pair of Samurai 710BK sz 32? :]

[meta]

Here are my s0500xx at ~3months

I soaked them twice, and about 2 weeks ago my girlfiend and I got in a fight at the beach and she threw them into the ocean to fuck with me.

I think if its how they feel that's bothering you I wouldn't worry about it too much. Cosmetically they look awsome and are a perfect fit and it would seem logical that the feel of the fit will just follow with time. I too have had a few pair of jeans where at first I didn't like the fit but after a few weeks - a month it all just stretches around and fixes itself.

just my 10 pence worth

[fndmybetterhalf]

yeah...ughhh lol. I remember looking through the Samurai contest thread and reading from alot of people complaining about the fit around hips/thighs/crotch.

Well...i put them up on Supermarket for sale or trade for 710BK or Eternal 811 cuz maybe the fit on those might be something more close to what I'm looking for...but if I dont get any good offers, I'll hold onto these until I'm finish with my Oni Blue's.

about 2 weeks ago my girlfiend and I got in a fight at the beach and she threw them into the ocean to fuck with me.

Did you shake the shit out of her?

[Knugget]

meta good shit. Seems as if she did you a favor. I'm liking the colors on those.

raii Are you wearing those everyday? Seems like you ojnly have creases with only 1.5 months in.

[rockon99]

It was pretty sunny outside so i figured i'd take a few pics, theyre coming along nicely.

I love how they turn a really blue color - rather than brown/blue. i'll soak them again in june. maybe wash..

yeah i wear them everyday, they are starting to fade in the whisker region and some in the combs but i guess the pic didnt pick it up

[beatle]

Honestly - texas denim rules ! Always great fade patterns

[BBC]

S710xx 1.5 months

Too much stack IMO. But nice back pocket fade!

[bustinxjustin]

So dope chantheman...

I can't wait to see what those will turn out like with some wear.

Got any fit pictures to share?

[Smoleu]

Very nice. Mine are at the post office waiting to leave Japan.

Any initial impressions?

[chantheman]

from the "how do jeans fit" thread

probably wont get to break these in for a while. still working on some jins and tasukis

pre soak measurements

waist 31

front rise 10.5

back rise 13.5

thigh 11.5

knee 8.5

hem 8

inseam 36

[blm14]

what's the name of that cut? This one I mean:

[chantheman]

s5000 cut

initial impressions are i think these either feel tighter than a 31 or ive gained a little weight since i last bought a new pair of jeans. not sure if samurai fixed their sizing issue, but these are about on par with the 0500 that i ended up selling. wanted this cut more. inseam is only a 36 raw. fine for me but i dont know about for others. overall im pretty happy with these, but well see after a soak which i dont plan to do anytime soon.

[Smoleu]

what's the name of that cut? This one I mean:

It's a 2nd/Samurai collaboration. 5000vx cut with contest 15OZ texas denim

[salaami]

this is a very noobish question, but what does the XX in the model names mean? does it stand for xtra-heavy weight or something? sorry, but my e-time is short, and im not going to the small questions thread. neg rep if necessary...just answer the question.

[rockon99]

^I always thought it meant it was raw.. i have yet to see a washed jean with the XX in the name

[ogkush]

dos equis = hidden rivits?

[rockon99]

wow really? i never knew. how come the cheop old levis 501xx is bar tacked?

[zombiefood]

dos equis = hidden rivits?

The VXs have hidden rivets as well.

[plongin]

^^ the man is right, XX traditionally stands for hidden iron rivets (in relation to the back pockets at least...)

chan, what about em did you like more than the 0500s? I'm trying to figure out the difference in cut, cause from what I remember frm your 0500 pic, they kinda look the same!

beats, did you wash them 0500s with the construction paint in the end?
