X-post from HDC thread:

Here's my way-past-due update. Not a lot of progress due to my no-jeans job, but lovin' where they are now regardless:

if anyone would like to buy a BNWT s710 size 29 for < retail, PM me !

Here are my 0500xx's about 6 months of solid wear and 2 or 3 washes. Plan to wear them more in the future but started some Eternal 811's and i'm in love with them.

Sorry for the upside down shot!

[Cold Summer]

Those look great. That's definitely my favorite Samurai denim.

How's the fit between 0500s and 811s? I had a size 31 pair of S0500s but they were a little too loose in the leg. My size 31 710s, on the other hand, fit just right.

710xx about 8 months. 4 or 5 washes

Cold Summer - My 811's are a size 30 compared to my 0500's which are a size 29. I love the fit on the 811's, though since I did size up one there is some room in the leg. I think they fit kind of similarly based on the sizing I used.

noob questions. I am in the UK and I would love to grab a new pair of Samurai S5000VX. Do any of the people selling on global rakuten ship to the UK? Is sutocorp or similar the best option?

[S-Town]

After you search for S5000VX in Rakuten, filter your country to UK. The listings that remain should be willing to ship to you.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

there are enough rakuten shops that ship overseas. kaizoku-pirates, 2nd, and so on.

if you don't want to struggle with customs you could buy the s5000vx also from dc4 in germany

[dhalgren]

Samurai X McDonald's collabo Singapore edition? (But seriously, I think that's wasabi mayo!)

Good to know about dc4, thx. Shame they don't stock the 21oz S5000VX.

hello,just a quick question:

is kaizoku-pirates a good store to order s5000vx in 21oz or 24oz? im in the U.S so what would be the cheapest place to buy them? thanks in advance

[Maynard Friedman]

Great post dhalgren! I wonder what the weight of that SAMURAIxMcD collab is - 4oz or maybe 8?

I think the point is that Samurai will make your buns look great!

EDIT: has anyone spotted the Flame Grilled Flat Head yet?

Pirates is a perfect store to buy from! They typically sell Samurai as one-wash though, so make sure you communicate.

nice Louis

Samurai showed first pics of their "Goodbye 2012" jeans.

not a fan of those and to be honest...very few jeans from Samurai really caught my interest lately

[Maynard Friedman]

b_F,

Is the Samurai love affair coming to an end?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

either it is me or it is them...I don't know. The new products...kinda trying to hard. Just heavier and flashier...not my cup of tea. Maybe I changed.

I still love their standard jeans though. The 710 and the 19oz denim. Still perfect. The S500VX will stay an all-time classic. And the S0500 is also great (the pair I have, haven't checked the recent Texas Coton denim issue)

[futurebass]

just a heads up, BiG restocked on 710s today

S0110XJ at 13 months

I find it interesting that while they're a looser fit, I can see the pocket bags in front, and the pocket lining in the back.

Effin' LOVE these man. My JINs looked like this a couple years ago. Your pocket bags will eventually burst through and thats when the real magic starts!

[Cold Summer]

C'mon b_F, even if Samurai never makes another cool pair of jeans again, you've already got enough to last you for the next two decades or so.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

or maybe even 3 decades

Casper: got some pics of your amazing pair?

[Casper]

Haven't really worn them much so they look pretty much the same lol. I can post some new ones if you guys really wanna see though

[Flash]

Would love to see them again , best faded Jin denim I've ever seen

[coleslawyum]

Say it ain't so b_f… but I feel you.

My favorite jeans from Samurai has always been their interpretation of classics:

- JIN Leepro, Leepro Jacket and Wrangler repro

- RR (esp. 510 and 510-66)

- 5000vx, 3000vx

I would say that I'm more of a Warehouse and Real McCoys fan in terms of an overall brand, but the classic Samurai will always bring me warm feelings, like a pair of No 1 Evisu.

[coleslawyum]

Some Samurai Love…

JIN Jacket. From a few years ago. I don't get to where this often, but still beautiful denim.

0500xx. I can't believe I've had this for 5 years. Don't wear them as often either, only during the cold months.

[Casper]

They pretty much look the same except more seat wear. Yes my arcs are still intact after 5 years. Surprising because I work in visuals and usually these would be the first to go. Love 'em. Had the crotch repaired and re-inforced at denim surgeon. They asked me if I wanted the front pocket bag holes fixed, obviously I said "no" haha

[S-Town]

Daaaayum!!!
