    same for S0120XJ?
    I think the older lots are all gone, there's still some on rakuten that don't indicate they're the latter II denim but I would suspect they are yes?

      my BB-ODs do not really fit well anymore due to losing 15 lbs.  Will be getting a pair of Black Shadows next week from BiG. 
      To be honest, I would love to get a pair of BB-SBG also but that particular model fits differently from the BB-ODs and will not fit me at all.  I'm getting off topic though 🙂

        @STAN:

        This is my only Samurai jeans  , bought via proxy from Bas Clothing. Arrived 19th Oct 2009. Mark 2 years old now, 19th Oct 2011.  S510xx 24oz. The one and only Lot 12-890.

        Out of curiosity, why did you proxy from BAS? They do direct international shipping.

        I was unsure to fill up the rakuten form.

          I really don't know, but judging from the photograph, those on BiG site seem identical to those posted by dcg.
          We will see…

          I decided to buy a pair of Samurai because I needed a good Lee's repro.  I hope that Samurai are not as addictive as Iron Heart, but I suspect they are.

              anyone with direct experience comment on the shrink/stretch of the Sam jin denim? Have been debating about picking up a pair but they'd have to come from Japan so I'd rather not screw up sizing…. BiG suggests 2" waist shrink.

                I only have a Jin jacket, but it is (was) unsanforized, and I have washed it. There doesn't seem to be much movement in it at all, but the denim is absolutely beautiful.

                  My lot 10 Jins are size 31; true waist is probably 32.5".  If I had it to do over again I'd have gone with size 32.  They've stretched, but it's been a long, painful process (and they shrink right back up whenever I wash them.)

                    Found these Samurai S0610LX Lot11(2008 Special) a month or so ago brand new without tags at a consignment shop. They have stretched out a lot. I might soak them again to make them fit better. They fit great when I got them.

                      ^I really like that fit as is, actually.

                      I just received my first pair of sams, 710xx lot 14.  They are gorgeous.  (never mind.  😉 ;D)

                                    Those are brilliant finn!  there's something about the remaining 'ghost' of the arcs that's really freaking cool.

                                      Hi Kit,

                                      Yes, they just left from Japan last night so should hopefully be arriving
                                      this weekend or early next week.

                                      Regards,

                                          Nice comparison, makes me want to give my S5000BK's another try.
