Samurai Jeans

[Flash]

well pleased your putting some good wear in those cant wait to see some pics of the back pockets once they have some wear

[laxlife1234]

samurai's stretch like crazy if you wear them. I got a 28 in black knights and i'm a 30, they all stretch out.

This.

I have a pair in a tagged 29 with a measured 32" waist. Gotta soak the waist to shrink back. My S500JX-LR's also stretched a LOT. If my waist was bigger, these would probably be able to stretch another inch to 2 inches.

beautiful_FrEaK- That is one hell of a fit man! Must spread though...

Anybody ever repaid pocket bags before? Mine have totally disconnected at the top.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx!

do you have recent pics of the damage? if nothing helps, a good tailor should be able to do it

[denimjunky]

Just got my 710s. Real snug. Went TTS.

Could hardly close the buttons.

I soaked them cowboy style. Shit how the waist digs in to my fatty flesh.

I think that they will be golden after some weeks of wear!

[Revsta]

PM me if you wanna buy a soaked pair of 710s 32 19oz.

@Sinji: was busy as shit...will send you the promised stuff soon!

[Sinji]

No worries mate, I'm not gonna wash them anytime soon :------)

[DeForel]

I wouldn't worry about the waist, it's the thighs that were the problem last time and this seems a lot better. Could you post post soak measurements?

Waist: 34

Front rise: 9.75

back rise: 14.1

upper thigh: 11.5

knee : 8.5

leg opening: 7.6

inseam 36.5

There ya go man! Taking them to selfedge LA to get hemmed up this week

I took some close-ups of the Zero (VX) denim I own. The slubs/bumps/knots you see below are all from my Lot.10 and Lot.11 VX denim (more so from the latter).

I compared those two to the Lot.12 VX denim and to my surprise I haven't found a single slub/knot (yet) on the Lot.12 (in pre-soak state that is but a soak shouldn't change that).

I have noticed the same situation on the 15oz Texas Cotton denim. No/less slubs on Lot.12 but some on Lot.10 and a lot on Lot.11.

So my advice: if you guys love slubs, get Lot.11 if possible.

My questions: Did you guy notice the same? Does it bother you at all? Or do you like it better that way?

Does someone know if Samurai officially changed the denim (I'm looking at you coleslawyum)?

What's the situation on Lot.13 and Lot.14?

[Guest nooblet333]

Yeah I have a lot of those bumps too, on my S710xx, just wondering how does it get there?

[hollowsleather]

@b_F, you should use those pics to revive the old rogue warp knot thread:

Personally I love them, they're the reason all of my fancy jeans (and jacket) are VX denim.

[medasyn]

does anyone know a place in london you can find a pair of samurais in london? all will i have to stick to proxies in japan and blue in green?

[Revsta]

my s0500s got one slub bump on em.

Funny you should mention this, because I was just having this conversation with one of the owners at BiG. He was rocking some Lot 13 and I had on a Lot 10 0500xx. There was a definite difference in the slubs. (non-existent in the newer model) So unofficially they are different. But I'm gonna go ask my peeps for the official word.

It's a bit disappointing, because one of the big draws of Texas cotton was the uneven threads.

@coleslawyum: that would be great! and good to know it's not only the case with Lot.12 but with probably all the newer Lot#s
