2010 Samurai 17oz. LHT - The Poll Thread (Now with Joe McCoy's poll!)

[riff]

Sweet! Are the back pockets going to be half-lined, like on the jins?

Great stuff Aho - thanks again!

[sixsixtie]

Look good so far. I just hope the pockets arent super far apart like they are on the jins.

[dave023]

NIce........

[geneticdrifter]

since its a 0500 cut, shouldn't they pockets be where they are on the 0500?

and aho, can we pick the color of the patch? or are we just giving an idea and they choose details?

PEACE

[rome1]

thas whats up!

[aho]

genetic is correct...the pockets should be placed 500 cut style...As far as the patch, we basically give them the idea we want and they'll do their own "Samurai style" make up accordingly.

riff I'll talk to Gordon about the finer details once things are set (ie: pocket lining etc.)....Our jeans are already pretty special IMO but it'd be nice if we could have something a bit more personalized, maybe autographed pairs, upside down A, etc.

[Knugget]

i'm really glad to see these ideas progressed this far and this thread is so much cleaner than the previous one. good job.

[Stacks]

can't wait to see all the damage from the exposed rivets

As some others have commented the sum of the choices comes off as a bit schizophrenic (black buttons/exposed copper rivets for instance) but I hope this turns out well.

[aho]

^Yeah it is a bit haphazard but I think that's a big part of the "charm", at least in my eyes....lol....I do think, however, that the black buttons/geisha pockets are fiyahhh though...

[chambo2008]

looking good have we a date for production? and price?

[aho]

Gordon will let us know once we finalize everything...I'll get back to you on that once he does! Everyone get your votes in if you haven't already!

[Lozinski]

Black rivets? lol.....

[ssheat]

Tab on left backpocket? Leather + tab on right would look a bit strange in my opinion.

[soonami]

^^^ I know right? It's so terrible I don't know how how this arrangement has survived 100 years (see Levi's 501)

*facepalm*

[ssheat]

I'm speaking of the leather wrangler detail on the backpocket (which, as explained, can be removed). I think that a direct mix of the classic details, levi's tab and wrangler's leather "tab" (along with the jin arcs) on the same pocket will be a bit too much (it could be done the other way around). I think that the two should be on different pockets, but I'm probably thinking uselessly though. Please do correct me if what I'm saying is blasphemous.

Edit: I think price on these should be in the 250 range based on decent participation.

Can't wait man...I just went to t5 and see the Jin denim in person, and damn it looks good. And with all these options the jeans will be off the charts.

I am hoping for a release date before summer, but not sure if it is possible.

[booyaolian]

Well I hope the back pocket rivets are hidden or I'll be hammering mine already scratched my seats in my car enough, and some how I'll still get my hidden Jin arcs.
