Samurai Jeans

[mlyngard]

Bought a used pair of sammies, the 2 top buttons were pretty loose on them and on my second day of wearing the jeans the top button fell off.

Is there any way to get spare buttons for these? Who should i try to contact? Sorry if this been discussed before.

thanks for help.

Contact Gordon at BiG ([email protected]). He replaced a button for me on a pair of Momos with a Sam top button. He may not have any around though, so there may be a wait.

Alternately, you email Kiya at SE, Blue Owl, or Denimdoctors and see if they can provide that repair service. Or check around your local tailors that do denim repair.

Or you can look online for denim buttons. Craft stores sometimes have them. Some are hammered on, some are screw-back.

my new 710s. post soak fit pick

thought this looked cool

[nycsurfer530]

i sized up two, size 32 normally 30

[Warakia]

That fit looks spot on nycsurfer, def. gonna make samurai 710 my next pair..

[lilfatsupra]

nycsurfer530- Thanks, I would get 710's after my 5000vx's, but I think I want something thinner...

[fatpikaboy]

nice fit just ordered a pair of 710s last night

[kit99bar]

nice fit, looks true to size to me though.

[jim_n]

nycsurfer530 you have any measurements on those? haven't heard of many sizing up 2.

[nycsurfer530]

post soak measurements after 2 days wear:

waist: 16.25

front rise: 11

back rise: 15

upper thigh: 11.25

knee: 8.75

leg opening: 7.5

inseam 37

i sized up two because i like the 19oz cotton and i like the fit but i wanted it to be a little looser and not to skinny

you could always go s003jp, that fit is pretty skinny but not a fan of the exposed selvedge on the pocket

Worn for about 2 weeks. S710XX

I've soaked them twice but been told that there is probably still some if not a lot of shrink left in them.

What is the best way to go about getting most of the shrinkage out of the way?

[lilfatsupra]

nycsurfer530- I don't really feel the back pocket... I like the levi copycat arcs. I'll find something sooner or later.

JAbad- Those look crazy baggy for 710. Maybe you should have sized down.

[JAbad]

Well I have 23" thighs & 16" calfs so they're definitely not going to look super slim on me.

There is a little room on the thighs still, which is why I think there could be a bit more shrinkage.

I think I will go with the machine wash/dry which I will do tomorrow.

But I don't know about sizing down, if I did, I don't think I could button them cause they fit very nice on the waist (went TTS).

[kit99bar]

Machine wash on hot, take out before spin cycle, then hand dry (in sun if possible). that'll get most of the shrinkage out.

[JAbad]

What do you mean by taken up an inch?

I went TTS & they fit great at the waist & I like the fit overall, but I think I would like them even better once I get most/all the shrinkage out.

[kit99bar]

the fit looks awesome to me, not everyone needs skin tight jeans. repped you

I think he's taling about hemming your 710.

I like the fit and as you only did 2 hot soaks so far they will definately tighten up after your wash

[JAbad]

Thanks guys! Appreciate it.

I'm actually going to do the wash/dry right now, hopefully it will get most, if not all the shrinkage out of the way. Luckily I have only really worn these for 2 weeks & not even that hard cause of work/classes.

***** EDIT *****

FRESH OUT THE WASHER/DRYER!

LOVE the fit now.

[nycsurfer530]

i wouldn't hem\, i like to see some crazy stacks form

You could also contact Samurai about it, I had them fix a loose button for me once before, and they did it for free. The only problem is that it is pretty pricey to ship the jeans to them and then have them ship it back to you after the repair if you don't live in Japan.

My wife has a pair of the Geishas that they sell at BiG, but they won't be skin tight, they are cut pretty straight for a women's jean.

So the Geishas are straight? low rise?

Im kinda looking for the stitching in the back also.
