Fuck, those 25oz look nice.

 

How good is Yuichi at helping you avoid getting the prison ass raping that is your respective nations Cutoms/Import fees?

[louisbosco]

does yuchi ever make mistakes? i'm just wondering cause my parcel has gone from japan to france instead of singapore and im starting to worry.

[Broark]

Anyone know where to get more of the Samurai tees? Looking for some in an XL most likely if they run small like most Japanese tees tend to.

2nd have a pretty big selection

He does all he can but in the end it depends on the custom policies in your country. nothing he can influence

have you already contected him? everyone makes mistakes. But sometimes tracking can be misleading. and maybe he just gave you a  wrong tracking number

[louisbosco]

hahaha. yeah. he gave me the wrong tracking number. had me freak out there for a sec.

S555GXM - No wash, not much wear

S5000VX-15th - 1 soak, 1 wash, Approx 2 months effective wear

[mange]

Finally got my S5000vx 25oz in size 30. I must say that the fabric did not feel as stiff as I expected, feels surprisingly soft. But I guess they will stiffen up after the soak. I choose not to soak the waist so I have a fair chance to button the really stiff buttons while new. Here are the pre soak measurements:

 

Waist: 31" 79cm

Front Rise: 10.25" 26cm 

Back rise: 14" 35.5cm

Upper Thigh: 11.5" 29cm

Knee: 9" 23cm

Leg Opening: 8.5" 21.5cm

Inseam: 36.25" 92cm

 

And here are the pictures Pre Soak:

Nice pictures.

 

So I take it these 25oz-ers will have a maximum inseam of around 36", like other limited edition versions of the S5000, eg like the "Go Rin No Sho/The Book of Five Rings" version?

The 24oz version was also shorter than the usual S5000. I guess they expect less shrinkage with this denim

1 year ++

 

[Quoise1203]

Which denim was used on this model?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

AFAIK, the 17oz Zero denim

[louisbosco]

25ozers are in. pics up soon.

[nihped]

is it fine to size down 2 in s5000vx 15th anniv?? 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

^I'd rather try to get actual measurements of the pair in question and go by that. instead of just following a simple "rule"

[mange]

Post soak fit pictures of the S5000vx 25oz size 30. Some hip flare but hopefully that will settle with time as the fabric softens.

 

Regarding sizing down 2 I would not recommend it. I sized down 1 and going down one more size I think would be very hard. Would be fine with a lighter denim like 14oz but from my experience it is much harder to stretch the heavier fabrics.

 

The measurements are as following:

 

                            Pre soak               Post soak

Waist                   79cm / 31†           79cm / 31†(waist not soaked)

Front rise             26cm / 10.25†      24.5cm / 9.5â€

Back rise              35.5cm / 14†        35cm / 13.75â€

Upper Thigh         29cm / 11.5†        29cm / 11.5â€

Knee                    23cm / 9†             22.5cm / 8.8â€

Leg opening        21.5cm / 8.5†       21cm / 8.25â€

Inseam                 92cm / 36.25†      89.5cm / 35.25â€

Great fit!

 

Damn you guys with all the S5000VX25oz-15th jeans. I just reserved me a pair from Yuichi. Will pick them up in September. No need for such heavy denim in this heat wave

 

In case anybody is on the fence. Yuichi has full stock of the S5000VX25oz and as always he gives 40% discount on the shipping costs! Which are usually quite high when shipping so heavy jeans.

[S-Town]

And just to add to BF's shipping discount note above.  Make sure to contact Yuichi DIRECTLY when placing an order.

I will posté Fit pics of 5000vx25oz size 34 very soon

I like the fit. Yuichi wash it for me and hem at a correct longer. i'm thinking if i have to soak it again or all of the shrinkage is done with the wash that Yuichi did?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yuichi machine washes them. Soaking won't change much. Only a second wash will give you a noticable change.

 

Can you please post full measurements of your size 34 too?

[geL-]

No problem.

Waist: 43cm

Thigh: 33cm

Leg opening 23cm
