Nice Alexx 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

As I said in the other thread..that's a excellent 510 fit…if all guys would get away with this fit, the 510 would be way more popular around here/Sufu/etc.

edit: no problem Alex! If you wanna chat about Samurai you are always welcome to PM me

[ALEX1976]

thx mega
thx beautiful_FrEaK…..the denim is epic....cool jeans!
love them too:-)

[beautiful_FrEaK]

inspired by Alex I put on my 510XX21oz and I have to say…his pair fits so much nicer!

And to add..it's way too hot for these right now

I look down in shame

[Finn666]

Alex - great to see you in samurai denim buddy…that´s your first other jeans than FH and IH, right? i hope you like and gonna enjoy it!...

b_F - i´d vote for a hem on your paif...cuffs are a bit too high and too thick imo!...hem should do it

[Jordan23]

B_F no reason to look down! Fit is perfect imo. Alex you are looking great as always! You two inspire me. Will carry my 510xx 21oz today as well. Pics will follow!

[ALEX1976]

@ rafa…yes first other denim than ih and fh

@Jordan23 thx;-)

@B_F thx
First time(yesterday, those sammys so tight after 45 min cold soak...shrunk much but now its ok
they stretch 2" in the waist back)

Thx for tipps B_F

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yeah Rafael, most of my fits would benefit from a hem, I know Still I'm a bit like Ruedi who doesn't want to do any harm to his jeans

[ALEX1976]

By the way B_F…your fit
Looks top!

When u like double cuff it is ok...;-)

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I told you, waist will be noe problem
do you wear them with a belt or without?

well, sometimes I dig cuffs, double cuffs or stacks…with this roomier cut, stacking doesn't look so good (except when wearing boots) and I wanted to show how the jeans fall on my body without them bunching on my shoes.

[ALEX1976]

yesterday without belt….now with a belt;-)

[Finn666]

just popped my 0500 in for a wash (along with the IH-666Sod), after a few days of gardening…going to post pics tomorrow or as soon as i have the time to!

[Jordan23]

As promised!

triple 510XX21oz-Power!

[Dirty Denim]

anyone know what is the best sammi cut similar to the ih 301s? I like my hems around 8in flat  Also i found a few on BIG site but i want a pair with the arc's and the sammi red tab.  where can i buy a pair like that?

[RocknRoll]

The S710XX (19oz) is probably what you're looking for, although the S0500XX (15oz) is almost as slim. For a lower rise tapered fit there is the S0610LX (15oz).

to get 'Red Tab' Samurai's you will need to buy from a non-USA store. DC4 has a few models (but more pricey than BIG), and you can also try Rakuten. No doubt there are other places too.

beautiful_FrEak is an encyclopaedia of Samurai info, and has been helping me with choosing. If you read over some of the early pages in the Samurai thread there is some really helpful info provided by him and others.

Thanks RnR..Ima read up tonite b4 bed.  Rakutan def has plenty i see.  I just dont know how easy it is to shop on there

[Dirty Denim]

Ok i bought these just now..hope i did it right lol.  Is shipping free on there bc i didnt see a charge for it?

[RocknRoll]

I've only bought from Rakuten once, and it was fine although not quite as easy as buying from western shops. Check the returns policy too - they vary from shop to shop.

Be aware that it's difficult to ask them detailed questions about the jeans because the amount of English spoken is generally very little. (And, to my shame, I speak zero Japanese).

having said that, you will often find the prices to be very good, even considering shipping costs.

Happy bedtime reading mate!
