Samurai Jeans

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I wish Samurai would make the S0500 or S0510 in the 17oz VX denim.

Would be great if all the 4 major cuts would be available in all 4 main denim (15oz Texas Cotton, 17oz VX, 19oz and 21oz)

Or someone sell me his BNWT S510VX-2nd

[pyrotech]

can someone tell me how much the 19oz denim will stretch? i mean 710's if that matter.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

it's possible to get them beyond the raw measurements...but I wouldn't recommend it

[vespr^1198s]

you mean beyond the raw measurements right?

Hear, hear!! I would have loved to see Aho's contest jeans come to fruition....

17 oz Jin denim in the S0500 cut..... Yum!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah...sad that it so quickly died...

although I wasn't a fan of the choosen backpockets and some of the detailing.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you mean beyond the raw measurements right?

yeah of course...forgive a non-native speaker

[vespr^1198s]

yeah of course...forgive an non-native speaker

yeah, no worries. with your collection of raw denim (esp. sams) there is no doubt you know what you're talking about, just trying to clear up everything in case there was any confusion

[farmer]

great and thx for posting measurements..

thanks for the sizing help!

glad I could help

B's Geishas. Doesn't get to wear them much seeing her job requires her to wear scrubs. Leg twist!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

These look kinda texas cotton-like. But Geishas should be a 16oz denim, right?

I love the pic of the hem/roping!

Where did you buy it? From BiG?

[HOLY]

Just gave my 710's an ocean soak since they were grimy now they are full of mud and sand and i hope the salty water are gonna help the rusty buttons develop. (coolstorybroconcept)

[Guest Midnite8]

Just rinse the buttons with tap water?

[Stacks]

isn't deliberately jumping in the ocean with your jeans on for the purposes of artificially rusting your buttons the exact opposite of coolstorybroconcept?

or are you gonna tell people you had to swim to shore when the deepwater horizon exploded?

Buttons were already rusty, I went to the beach in the night with some friends so i decided to get into the water with jeans.

[dvskei]

everyone, do you leave the back pocket stitching or remove it for the minimalist look?

[vitasoy]

they are sold in the states without back pocket stitching.. (legally)

but i leave mine on because i like the arcs (old ones)

[dvskei]

i sea. im getting a pair with arcs and red tab intact

personally i kinda prefer no tab/no arcs tho cuz then they are easier to recognize as raw, and not mistaken for levis by 95% of people, who dont know about raw denim..

[coleslawyum]

Which is fine… the tab and arcs are a "homage" to Levi's. I don't get the raw statement since Levi's has been making raw jeans since the 1900's.

My S5000 GX-M

First day !

I can't wait to see how some of the element models fade. Tried on fire model in BIG..earth model was so dark..I want a pair of either! Eternal contest saves me from spending the $ though..perfect

[aho]

^To each their own but personally I wear my jeans for myself and not for others...I also have no shame in breaking out the Levi's, arcs and tabs in full glory...

[morse9443]

yo beautiful freak, what's up with these.. cinch back?

18oz Samurai Original Japanese Selvage Denim

[Repeat]

if you're going to take tabs/arcs of take the arcs off first because they can look pretty good with just the tab. and don't worry about people mistaking them for levi's; everyone on sufu can tell the difference

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Ed is just lazy. It's unfair to talk about Samurai when I'm asleep

I discussed that model over on mynudies.com with mikecch

I think 2nd gives you all information and pictures you need. Of course the 18oz LHT Texas Cotton is interesting. IIRC we were offered that denim for the LHT Samurai contest...I never knew why we didn't take it in the end.

As I don't like cinchbacks and exposed rivets (and am broke ATM) I won't buy this pair. But hell, the details are soooo nice!

[ranonranonarat]

wow fuck, those pocket bags are mind-blowing.
