I received an e-mail from Gordon today stating that things are still rolling smoothly. The selvage threads are being dyed and when those are finished the denim weaving shall begin. He wanted me to tell all of you that everything will be moving along shortly.

Hang in there, this will be well worth the wait i'm sure!!

I tried on the 0105 a few days ago and its great. Quite vintage looking but not that wide-legged, sort of like a regular cut. Same about the rise. It's very possible to get a James Dean type of fit because of how the pockets are spaced(yeah I know he wore Lee).

The denim stretches easily, I could even get into a 27 when a 28 in the similar cut sda sd102 and 101 is very tight in 28.

Good to hear these are still coming along. Has there been any word on which patch they want to use?

The measurements seem to point to a similarity with the Samurai 0500. What are your thoughts on that?

+ some taper. My sz30 does have 1" taper and sz31 1.25" taper from knee to hem. I confirm that you really could size down 1 from your Samurai size (uuh, I don't know about the new lots though). I don't know about the heavier denim they're making but this 13.7oz denim stretches easily if needed (it would be safe to presume that the heavier denim doesn't stretch as easily...).

my 5000s are 17oz denim and they stretch A LOT. Aren't they making these 15oz? I'm sure they will stretch either way.

HJJ- I was planning on going 1 down from what my 0500 size was going to be. Thanks for confirming that. I should make it to BIG in a few weeks anyway. Hopefully there will be some 0105s in a 29 to try on.
