Samurai Jeans

[spitfiredealer]

yeah the last two are closest to the true color.

x post from small questions thread, regarding the fit of a size 26 versus 27 samurai s003jp please

alright people, a question that has been bothering me in my search for new jeans..might seem a little dumb, but here it goes

how much difference in measurement in a part of a jeans actually makes a visual difference, or changes the feel and fit of the jean?

eg: in the thigh a 10" measurement versus a 10.5" or in the leg opening, 6.5" versus 6.75" or even 7"?

I ask because I'm looking for skinny jeans, but the lengths are too long so I need to hem, the leg opening will be different since i'm looking at jeans that have taper...

thanks!

Sorry to spam this thread fellas, but if you have the balls to go heavy and go persimmon at the same time, I have a damn near new pair of 24oz S5000KAs for sale. Size 35. Take advantage of me having other obligations to tend to...

Samurai S003JP-A Update.

So I've already had 2 crotch rips and reinforced my entire crotch. I partied a bit too hard at some club tonight and wound up ripping the crotch badly.

Might as well get this backpocket fixed as well.

[TooAwesome]

explain how you exploded your crotch please

[beautiful_FrEaK]

danced too extreme? happened to me some years ago with a pair of nudies

[saintkeat]

Some girls dragged me up a podium on the dance floor and it ripped very badly. Its going to be a tough fix for my tailor I think.

The backpocket rip I have no idea how that happened. It's been gradual though.

They actually held up well a couple months ago in an impromptu battle at some club. I did a 8 step with air flares and a couple different freezes and the other guy did the worm lol. Funny thing was we were from the same group.

Samurai 710xx. 11 months. Post second wash.

Been wearing the samurai 'blue shadow' for a few weeks now, bought off forum member marvelous1200.

Love the denim, fit and little details. Not sure how dissimilar they are from the regular 710s as I haven't got my old pair to compare, fit seems the same, though the denim seems different and the details obviously are.

Still might get them hemmed, but enjoying the cuffed look at the moment.

That pic hurts!!!!

S003JP-A Update.

So we all know it was Godzilla's fault..

Here's the repairs.

pretty tremendous repair job!

I have a 30 inch waist, what size in 710's should i get for a fit like this?

To me that looks TTS. Generally, unless you've got big thighs, you can size down 1 on 710s, but they're a slim jean anyway, especially at size 30!

[dylanbooth78]

just got these s710's, what do you guys think about the fit? i may get a little bit more taken off the hem but otherwise they feel good! as a side note if you are in the east end pop along to son of a stag in brick lane (the old brewery) AMAZING shop, that's where i got them hemmed (on a vintage union chain-stitch machine!).

[Flash]

Anyone know when 2nd release there samurai collabs ( they seem to do one every year , but im not sure if they are done at the same time every year)

[spitfiredealer]

Dylan how did you size on those 710's? I sized up on mine and kinda wish i hadn't now.

When i hemmed mine i lost a lot of taper in the leg.

[BrownMetallic]

nice p-up, Dylan!

i'd keep the hem_ for now.

how much was the chainstitch service?

[dylanbooth78]

hey spitfiredealer, i went approx true to size! i dont actually know what my waist measures but these are a 36" and they fit just right i.e. not too tight and not too loose! I wanted a looser fitting jean this time around otherwise i probably would have gone for a size 34", but in my opinion these 710's look cool true to size!

Hi brownmetalic, the chainstitch cost £20, and he will redo them anytime for free as long as you keep the receipt! here is their website;

Nicely sized Dylan! Know any other London Sufu-ers? I'll be in town from 19 Aug, interested in grabbing a pint?

yes mate i may well be up for grabbing a beer (if i can work it around my job! long shifts!!!) I dont know any of the london sufu-ers im afraid but their has to be a first time for everything;-)

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@Dylan: I like your fit. it's similar to mine and I went TTS. Our fits are a bit looser than most guys size their 710 (when you want a looser fit, Samurai makes looser cuts ) butI dig the extra room. And keep in mind that they will shrink some more. Of course you could have gotten a 35 and wouldn't have to size down 2 sizes from your 36. Dunno why you Brits skip the uneven sizes so often

[alexx1976]

s510xx21 oz

[akka225]

are those the same size as your IHs? nice fit!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

inspired by Alex I put on my 510XX21oz and I have to say...his pair fits so much nicer!

And to add..it's way too hot for these right now

I look down in shame

Looks great BF, well proportioned.

[BrownMetallic]

dunno ... having seen & gotten used to Tilmann in quite a few fabulous fits, IMO, he needs to size down from those.

Alex got it spot on, tho.
