pics??????????

planning on posting pics middle of next year when there is considerable contrasting fades....

Bleh, I am so jealous of people sized < 32. Congrats on your impending USAs.

How you find out this secret infomation??? I want answers bish! are the larger sizes in the second shipment? fuk I knew I should have went w/ 32's instead of 33's. All this damn talk of how the 505 denim doesn't stretch all that much. ughhhh...

^Excuse the crappy pics but I and my camera ain't very experienced. These are Samurai 505's washed bout 3 times and only really worn for about 6 months. Spending more time in my 660's and 710's now.

Got an email from Gordon today saying my USA's arrived and were one-washed. He said they shrunk to the exact tagged size without using the dryer.

[rome1]

awe damn I didn't get any email about my USA pair.

[arlee]

I want my USA's!!

So, when will USA's be shipped? Does anybody know? I know they were suppose to arrive right before christmas, but we don't have much time until christmas. Is it a good thing or bad thing?

[gimmegimme]

First shipment has arrived, but they're waiting for the flashers before they send them out. Shouldn't be much longer.

Part of the first shipment did have problems though, so yours may not be going out for a few weeks now.

I'm leaving the country for good in about 1 1/2 month

I received my Samurai 710xx in the post today from Blue in Green.

They're 30" in the waist and I need 32" in the waist. I had ordered a size 30 which is supposed to be 32" in the waist. I checked their website and they now have a note stating that the run is 2" smaller than it should be; well, when I placed my order, the only note was 'Expected delivery is 11/25/2007'.

Frustrating.

[chantheman]

im wondering if they will still stretch 2 inches in the waist for you so that they will be a stretched 32 which is what you initially wanted right?

[jordanelias]

^

I got them raw, though... they're supposed to be soaked. I could never wash them otherwise.

[theetruscan]

Gordon said this whole batch of jeans ran 2" small. I think that could be the problem.

[Agent Orange]

i hope my pair from 2nd doesnt run 2" smaller. how are yours, chantheman?

[chantheman]

tagged 29 actual a little over 30. so they are a little less than an inch smaller than expected.

I've worn my 710 for a little less than 2 days... do you really think gordon would swap me a brand new pair for these 2 day, washed once pair? I too am a victim of not having known this true to size issue with the new batch.

No, I don't think he will. An unwashed and unworn pair, yes. A washed and worn pair is almost certainly your problem.

[cldpsu]

That's what I figured. Thanks boss. Maybe somebody will be interested to pick these up.

[theetruscan]

I hope so man, that really sucks. Best of luck!

[rome1]

throw them up on the market and somebody will grab them up.

That's odd. Did BiG get a totally different lot then?

[beatle]

Finally people are starting to realize that the new Samurais do run almost true to size....

[heBAY]

So does that mean that the rest of the jean is smaller as well (in proportion with the waist)? Or did they just get baggier due to the size reduction in only the waist?

[cldpsu]

I measured everything but the waist to be the same. The waist about 1.5-2 inches smaller in the same size. Everything else was the same.

gordon was saying specifically that the jeans he got in this month are running 2 inches smaller than even other recent samurais.
