Samurai Jeans

[Guest nooblet333]

Thanks for the inspiration for those S710s =)

[brentos]

Since 6.1.10

fit? really diggin it. +rep.

looking for some new sams myself but trying to stay away from the slimmer cuts -- got enough of those.

want something with a slim silhouette but more room in the thigh and seat (kinda like my imperial dukes.)

thanks gusy -- looking at S5000vx and TTS or S0500x TTS or possibly sized up?

Sounds like the S5000 cut might be for you, I have the S5000VX 21oz, and S5000BK's, they're roomy in the top block, with a straight leg.

I believe those are the s5000vx.

I think people usually size down for the s5000vx to account for the waist stretching.

The pair I posted are S5000vx sized down 2, size 29.

I need to take them into selfedge. My left pocket is destroyed and I might hem them a bit...

Thanks for the rep and whatnot guys!

[coleslawyum]

Soaked some new Lot 11 0110XJ. Always a treat when I can do this. And some comparisons with Lot 10 0500. I don't wear these enough…

[devilish]

Thanks to user jwsach and supermarket I now own my first pair of truly heavyweight denim jeans. Some S510XX 21oz. Was surprised to feel just how much heavier they actually were but they are still very comfortable, as well as a perfect cut/fit. I'm going to have to adjust the rotation now to fit these in.

Will maybe take some photos later to post. Not that y'all don't know what they look like but it would start a record of their wear at least.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

great to see you posting some denim, coleslawyum!

still I don't own any Jins...

yeah the S510XX21oz is a great pair. my pair is still very stiff and rigid. and they fade fast.

brentos: if you want more room in the thigh, you for the S0500XX. I find the S5000VX to be rather slim in the thigh area

[LC_Miey]

Ive always love the texture of jins denim, great pair coleslawyum. would love to see some pics if you dont mind posting up some

Likin that Blue Selvedge

[robosco]

samurai 710xx, 3.5 months in

i think i'll wash in a month or so

sorry for big pics

[louisbosco]

any opinions on the samurai yamato S003JP?? was thinking about getting em'

[nycsurfer530]

haven't really seen a faded pair, but i tried them on at BiG and it was way too skinny for me

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah you don't see that pair very often here and I can't remember to see any faded pairs. but maybe try google to find some pics

edit: that's what google showed me.

a nice fit

and some evo

[louisbosco]

fit looks pretty awesome to me. i think i really like this pair. thanks b_F!

the trouble now deciding this over 4 others. hahahah.

[farmer]

710s coming along slowly...

always the trouble with denim...too much to chose from

btw: the S510AI-OGSP is already sold out at Samurai. So 200 pairs are gone. Pretty impressive for that price and before the jeans are out

In looking through Samurai's models, the 4000 has caught my eye, but I cannot find any info other than Samurai's rather incomplete size chart. Does anyone have experience with these? How do they fit? How bootcut are they? How would they compare to any other cut that I can see a chart for on BiG?

[Daniell619]

how much do s710s shrink when you hot soak them?

in the thigh, waist, leg opening, rise, inseam, ect.

[kucai020585]

anyone has a pair of s003jp ? how much do s003jp shrink when u hot soak? will it stretch a lot?

sizing advice please... TTS or SUO?

as bootcuts aren't that popular around these parts you will have a hard time finding much information here.

you are totally right not so rely solely on Samurai's sizing chart as we all know these quite off sometimes.

but if we would take their measurements as granted, the S4000 is less slim in the hips and thighs and has a more subtle bootcut compared to the S512 (which measurements you have on BiG)

how much do s710s shrink when you hot soak them?

in the thigh, waist, leg opening, rise, inseam, ect.

shrinkage throughtout the leg is mostly 0,5". the rise shrinkage is also in that dimension, can be a bit more. the inseam will end up closely to the tagged size a bit longer when only soaking the pair)

The S001JP-H has been announced.

17oz denim. I still have to read what it features besides that.

[mikecch]

^ Oooh, 100% bamboo fibre for the weft it says!

b_F, do you know if they're doing a special pair for each season? Or just the Spring special model?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

just figured the 100% bamboo weft out

dunno but someony told me, they are trying out some crazy stuff with using unique materials. reminding me a bit of Sugarcane. I think there's more to come but I'm not entirely sure

edit: Samurai is planning something. here's a link from 2nd:

[mikecch]

^ I like crazy materials...may just be my first Samurai in a couple of years

[beautiful_FrEaK]

why not? the cut is quite similar to the S5000 right?

I'll have to pass. two other pairs are waiting for me this year

[mikecch]

^ Haha, yeah.

I'll wait until closer to the May release date, want to check out the other seasons' jeans as well

[LC_Miey]

bamboo weft would be very comfortable for the skin.. bamboo fibers underwear is the most comfortable and enjoyable ever

[lance]

DIdn't they use bamboo weft in the 5000-SP Ai dyed which wound up disintegrating within a short time?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah there was some bamboo in the weft on that AI model IIRC.

somekind of ink dyed bamboo weft...gotta look it up
