Samurai Jeans

[bradl]

I was going to post the same thing but wanted to wait. I really wonder if they switched their sewers up or something because it happened so drastically.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Not sure if it’s a single seamstress. I think it’s more like the contracted work to a new or different factory. But then I don’t know how Samurai runs their business but I doubt they have their own sewing room.

 

With all those new pairs and collabs it could be that they shifted some models to different factories.

[Raoul Duke]

I haven't noticed much of a difference over the years.  I've had problems with their buttons intermittently for almost 10 years. 

 

Looking forward to the 710-DMOs arriving tomorrow or Monday.

I really have the feeling Samurai’s quality goes down lately. It’s just a personal opinion and I can’t back it up with enough facts but:

·         the stitching problems on the 710OG other had

·         I had a loose button on my S5000VX25oz

·         the top button of my S710OG is defective.

 

My old S5000VX24oz has zero issues with the top button and from my feeling a donut button is weaker than the “Rising Sunâ€-button they use on the 710-version of the 24oz denim.

 

my 24oz 5000 had no issues as well as with my old 710 19oz. haven't worn my 25oz 5000 enough for comparison, they're currently sitting in the closet.

^How close are yours to the measurements on Denimio? 

[chantheman]

i purchased a size 30
waist is a 30 raw vs. the 31.1 on the site.
thigh is 11.5 vs, the 12.2 on the site
hem is 7.75 vs. 8.1 on the site

If this is true I'm real happy I sized up. You gonna hot soak?

im going to see if they will exchange them for me after screwing up their chart sizing. no rush to wear them anyways so might as well ask first.

Do you think they will be too tight after a soak? The geisha denim is still a mystery as far as soaking goes. Hopefully I'll get mine Monday.

im assuming like any raw denim they will shrink. right now they fit just right, so even if they shrink a half inch everywhere its going to be painful for me.

[spitfiredealer]

Dam those measurements are way off. I went up 1 size but if the measurements are that off i will still be in trouble.

That sounds pretty bad...but they gave me measurements that were "normal"....

[spitfiredealer]

Same with me

[jameslow23]

I too ordered what i usually order which is a size 33. They came and were way to tight. Exchanging up for a size 34 now..

[Max Power]

Doesn't sound good...have you had yours hemmed? I did, so I don't think I can exchange them...

[jameslow23]

Oops! double post. nope i didn't hem mine. So i should be alright for a switch. however, their policy is a little weird. You order a refund package, and not an exchange package. In other words, you pay for the exchange before they refund you back.

[spitfiredealer]

Surely if they send you measurements for a pair and they are good. I then get them to hem them and what they send out isn't too those measurements i have every right to a refund or exchange!!? 

[kukupoint]

If jeans are not cropped and have the original look,then You have the right to exchange

[spitfiredealer]

I have emailed them asking them to check the measurements are what they originally said before they hem and ship them

[kukupoint]

Please excuse me if I misunderstand (I bad know English language).

You will not be able to exchange the jeans if they are circumcised (no matter who made it,-Denimio or "you").Can only be exchanged for those jeans that have the original factory look.

lol

[tigerstrom]

Haha

[spitfiredealer]

 Yes i understand that once "circumcised" there is no going back

[kukupoint]

For example ?

Ho-ho....."circumcised"  ?

I have a wonderful software:D

Let it remain so....

[Cucoo]

Your software just decided to use a term that means cutting off foreskins, not pant legs  

[kukupoint]

In my language many meanings,but the software....I am glad of the diversity in life
I hope no one was hurt

[tigerstrom]

It was funny! We understood what you meant!

My DMO's have arrived. The quality of construction on these is very poor; the stitching is all done at 6 or 8 SPI, the the stitch runs wobble, the bar tacks are sketchy, or missing altogether at the tops of the back pockets, some belt loops have long tales, the little thread triangles where the sewing machine has changed direction. These aren't even in the same ball park as Ooe, or even TCB. Not impressed!
