Could anyone provide me with some info on the 15th anniversary 710 collab with 2ND? Just got a pair and can't find muhc info on them? Thnk you

it was a collab in 2008. 710 cut with 15oz Texas cotton denim. IIRC it was the 10th anniversary of Samurai and the 12th anniversary of 2ND

This! ^^^^^^

25oz?! What the shit, it will literally be like wearing armour.

By which I mean it sounds great.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

curious how similar it is to IH's 25oz denim.

But then, I think (and hope) Samurai only does unsanforized denim

[spidereye]

(25oz will be released!

Neither a photograph nor sale time understands a detailed thing yet.

It will connect, immediately after understanding.)

So we are the same par interm of heavy denim oz with ironheart 25oz beatle buster...hopefully it will be up for sell before appril .

p/s hope this gem not come out under OGSP model.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

If you can't pre-order them now I'm quite positive they won't be available in time for the HDWC2.

if they mare a AI model out of it..well..they had the 24oz AI last year...again a heavy AI denim would be kinda boring (and expensive )

[spidereye]

You got the point . but i still hope they produce it before April,if so i believed you will love to have one...huh samurai 7.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Most likely it will be released in the 510 cut as most new (and heavy) denim. If it would be the 5000 cut, I might be interested

[spidereye]

Yeah 5000 is the best cut not too low or too high rise.

[louisbosco]

Yes. S5000 cut! Just like my 24oz currently!

[Max Power]

25 oz should be 28 oz after wash (or don't they claim the 24 to be 27 post wash)? Not sure, if that's necessary and wearable, but it will find its buyers. I can't imagine to wear those, as it would ´probably leave only the winter as wearing time. But I am curious to see them, I must admit.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

at this stage of weight, I also don't know if that 1oz makes such a big difference...

[Max Power]

Well, in terms of competitng with other brands maybe it does for some customers who hunt for the heaviest denim available. But I doubt that this is Samurais ambition.

[louisbosco]

True that. Samurai is alway in the own world. Nogami-San is one fella with crazy ideas!

[spidereye]

Yes. S5000 cut! Just like my 24oz currently!

I miss this one....sell like hot cakes.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

The 25oz jeans will be released in the middle of the year, more details will be announcend in spring.

And more 15th anniversary stuff will be announced in February

[louisbosco]

Awesome!!

[spidereye]

at the same time.

[Max Power]

So...will it make sense to wait until feb to decide which pair I'll buy? I think YES.

[louisbosco]

Well feb will be coming up really soon!

Samurai 710 blue shadows after 2 months wear, first wash. I love the denim, fit and arcuates on these:

The buttons are great too, from the Jin if I'm not mistaken (as are the pocket bags).

Some closeups of the denim.

Hello, guys. Some time lurker, first time poster looking for advice.

I am rather tall (my inseam length is about 90-92 cm, yes, from my crotch to the end of the floor though or about 35.5-36 inches) and skinnyfat guy (have got a bit of fat on my belly, but not a lot, really. I don't work out, that's why) with skinny/slim legs. Jeans I wear are usually 30 in size and don't stretch at all (I am new at raw denim, so I own only shit jeans like CK, time for me to upgrade to the real deal). The question is, which model should I choose for slim or skinny look? A tapered leg will be really, really appreciated, I'd like to wear these jeans with my Daltons. I am torn between s0003jp and S710XX, which one will be better? I've heard s0003jp is slimmer but I see a lot of people selling it due to wrong size. Shall I buy it true to size (i.e. 30)? Or shall I buy S710XX down one size? I can make and post some pics, but I don't know if naked hairy legs or belly will be appreciated haha. Thanks a lot in advance for your advice!

tl;dr: tall skinnyfat newfag asking about choice from s0003jp and S710XX and sizing.

So- I received my 710’s last week. Size 33. I bought then from a fella off here for a pretty reasonable price. He’d had 2 inches taken off the hem which works nicely for me as I’d have had to do that anyway. He’d given them a warm/hot soak from raw and they obviously didn’t fit him so they’ve only had a few hours of wear with him. They were much looser when they arrived with me- worryingly so. I gave them a Very hot bath soak for an hour or so which thankfully brought them down a little.

I’m happy enough with the top block and the front/back profile but as I’ve got very flat buttocks coupled with skinny legs I’m wondering if the side profile looks wrong- especially from the knee down where it sort of balloons out.

I’m still not convinced I chose the right size. I think on reflection a 32 would fit much better?Sometimes I look at them and think they look great, other times the calf area just doesn’t seem right

Any opinions/thoughts? Apologies for the poor pics. I'll try & get something better up.

If anyone has a size 32 in a similar condition that they’re finding to snug and would want to swap for a 33, let me know

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I'd stick with thease and wear them..after some machine washes you will be thankfull

[everyinchofgod]

B_F is the master of all things Samurai, so I hate to contradict him, but as a 710xx owner and fan myself, I'd vote for sizing down to a 32.

[Aries]

I think they look good and are proportionate to your upper body, but at the end of the day it's you wearing the jeans, so if you think you'd feel better in 32s, get the 32s.
