[deadendpro]

Any word on when the Samurai Go Rin No Sho Denim Jackets are going to be arriving at retailers? or have they already arrived? i've sent a few emails to T5 but i'm not getting any responses...

s710xx from the weekend

[Megatron1505]

Nice Ninja, how much wear have you got on those? That's about the level of fade that I have after three months wear and 1 (unintentional) wash.

[ninja07]

thanks megatron, my jeans do not go through hard wears, so they're probably fading slower than I would like. These 710s have been worn on and off, total wear is about 9 months and so far have been washed around 3x.

[Plalai04]

Nice s710xx Ninja,The color is still dark. Keep going !!!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Now, THAT interests me even more than the Take5 collab. Damn you Samurai!!!

If I understand it right it is 18oz LHT Texas Cotton denim. Will come out between November and December

edit: There's something special about how the LHT is put together:

Aya Aya left Supesharukureijijinzu using every part right.

経年でデそれぞれのデニムの変化を楽しめます。

Enjoy the change of each device in the interannual denim.

from the Samurai websho.

All in all that's the pair I wanted the Sufu-Contest Jeans to be!

[apples]

If I understand correctly, those have LHT on the right leg, and RHT on the left leg. Same idea as on the Americaya x Samurai s610vxj. I wish they were a different cut. Oh well, I know lots of sufuers love the 500 cut.

[BrownMetallic]

these are back on rotation for fall/winter:

***Xposted:

'talk about natural indigo jeans having reputation for retaining their color, these mofo doggedly latch on to their indigo like a pitbull. 1.5y/o = 8mos [approx effective wear] = x8 soaks = n0 wash.

it's prolly how the yarns were weaved so tight together__ every after soak, the damn jeans seem to reset back to almost new condition__ like having bigtime focus/attention disorder, lulz. but, i'm not complaining. it means that i'm getting my money's worth. all i know is that, everytime i put them on, i'm banking ataris [a few strikes @ a time]__ payback is when i decide to wash.... muuuahahaha!

Samurai s5000AI-10SP

[Warakia]

Damn that is good indigo retaining! Regardless, lovely pair of Sams and a great fit on you! I like how the arcs really seem to pop on that pair.
