kmw x context any one got update pics of those?

From the Context thread:

Here are long awaited images of my pair of the Context Exclusive KMW 1980 Black Selvage. I've received hella questions about fade, stretch, sheen, shine, and color change on these. Pics provide answers. The when new the denim is THE MOST RIGID FABRIC you will find anywhere. Some soak theirs, I did not. I would recommend not soaking. They are sanforized (and thus will shirk almost zero with a soak). The folds and creases will be more pronounced without a soak= better fades.

2.5 months daily wear. No Wash No Soak. They have stretched one inch in the waist.

You can see a shine developing. They feel waxy.

Hey guys I'm looking for a pair of jeans with the following "properties":

- skinny/slim fit

- jet black denim

- something stretchy/comfortable

- doesn't have to be selvedge

- good value for money

- something that wouldn't fade out very quickly

- dye wouldn't run onto clothes/shoes

I know the above is potentially fussy but anyone has any suggestions?

i would go for the iron hearts, but the inseam is just too short!

since i am looking for the perfect black pair and i love the '66 cut, i will have a better look into the denime 66 you guys mentioned.

so far i only ow the sda dp-292 and they are more greyish black.

does anyone know how the inseam of the denime 66 black will end up after a hot soak?

I POSTED THIS ALREADY IN TWO PLACES, BUT I THINK IT BELONGS HERE AS WELL!

IronHeart is going to release a new Riders Jacket end of November - the 9527.

It is the same cut as the 527 and the 1527, but made out of 21oz Real Black Extra Heavy Denim.

I asked Giles from www.ironheart.co.uk about this, and he said that he is going to carry those - also taking preorders on his website!

Price is not fixed yet, but will include free shipping worldwide as usual, with three different price segments - UK, Europe and Worldwide.

Sizing is supposed to be same as 527 and 1527, but do not count on that!

Ask Giles or check the www.ironheart.jp website for updates on this ...

Also check with www.selfedge.com on this, as this cut is based on their best selling jeans jacket cut (according to CottonDuck).

Lets start that heavy denim porn!

I too would love a pair of the ironheart superblacks - unfortunately, inseam is too short. I'd also want them to be selvedge at that price I feel.

Almost three years since starting this thread, I havent bought a pair of black jeans yet!

Hoping to find a jean like this, somehow, someway:

47 501 style cut

black warp and weft

selvedge

heavy weight

silver rivets

38 inseam (post)

I just smoked and you just tripped me out...I have the somet 005's in black, skull 5010xx 6x6, and just started on a pair of 811s ~1.5 months ago.

I would say the skulls feel like they have a slightly higher rise than the somets. Skulls also have a little more taper and smaller hem than somets. I have big thighs so diors would never work for me, but i like the fits on the skulls and somets. I think the somets would be a good choice for you if you like the 811s, but beware of the rise, its aot lower than the 811.

just for ref, i have skull - sz33, somet - sz 31, eternal - sz33

I've got a pair of Black Imperial Kings, which I have been wearing daily for about 5 months or so.

They've really become a thing of beauty, but the fading and streaking is mostly quite subtle, there is nowhere near the contrast I have seen on my indigo jeans.

Although the weft is white, dye bleeding has made it more of a gray over time. Overall the jeans have developed a sort of gray sheen at high-wear areas.

I would recommend Imperial for black denim, although the fading is very slow, and very subtle.

And a question, does Samurai make a Black version of the 510?
