Samurai Jeans

[Mild7]

Thanks Foxy, I apreciate your comments.

Point taken regarding chino vs jeans cut.  I guess I was hoping that BF may have nabbed some already and could comment on how they compare to Samurai denim cuts.  I might just have to buy some myself and find out

damn, I missed a lot of conversation

@Mild7: no I don't own the chinos. They are scheduled for the end of September but you can pre-order them right now.
The official fit pics don't really convince me so far. The fabric looks interesting though

Excellent idea Brown, the only problem area is the waistband so I'll do what you suggest. There's still a lot
of starch in the fabric too so once that's washed out I'm sure they'll be much softer and easier to stretch.
Thanks for the great tip!

when i soaked my sammys i put a piece of wood between the waist (Closed bottns)
so u have mor control about shrinkage

[Blackheart]

Thanks Alex, I'll find something to put in the waistband, wood, hanger…Going to soak the waistband tonight
so I'll let you all know what happens.

Oooops! apologies ma'am__ i'm new in this neck of the woods … Joan Jett__ got it!

tnx, Finn.

[Blackheart]

No problem Brown, it's happened on here before! Joan is a friend of mine, we go way back to the 70's.
Still need to find something to stick in the waistband of my 510's, looked around the house and all I have is
plastic hangers…Will try to find a piece of wood or something stronger this weekend.

some subtle 710-evo

[Blackheart]

Nice b_F, how long have you had these?

[Finn666]

well done so far T. …give´em hell

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx you two. well I own them since late December. Maybe 5 months of straight wear.

@BH: I hope all is welkl with you!

@Rafa: Fit and fade-wise I could totally see the 710 on you! But I guess you have already something different in mind, eh?

[Blackheart]

What's the weight on those? Texas cotton?…Love the cut! Thnx b_F, foot is still fractured, gonna take a
while to mend.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

The 710 comes in 19oz denim. The used cotton is a blend of American cotton, not especially Texas Cotton like they use on the 15oz denim.

Damn. But you'll make it

[Blackheart]

I've been thinking about a pair of 710's for a while now, just might pull the trigger since I love the cut.
Yeah, it's been a tough 3 weeks T, especially here at work…Oh yeah, I'll get through it!
