Samurai Jeans
-
if I give it a second thought, the 24oz denim bleed a fair bit more than average Samurai jeans
-
not sure what lot-# that one is, but do the newer lots differ in shrinkage and stretch?…these are a size 34 and from what i know it really didn´t shrink that much. just want to know if the newer numbers are the same when it comes to shrinkage!
got an answer to this Tilmann?…

My last Texas Cotton denim is from Lot.12 The Texas Cotton denim changed from season to season in its appearance. My Lot.11 is the roughest, slubbiest, hairiest Texas Cotton denim I ever encountered. I had Lot.10 which was also rougher and I have 2 from Lot.12 which are very very different. One is the regular with silver selvage lining which is quite smooth and one special run with red selvage which is rough as you expect it.
I'll get a Lot.14 Texas Cotton denim soon but it will be a one-washed jacket.
So I don't think I can help you here. But well…stay with a size 34 or 35.Isn't yours Lot.10?

I'd be surprised if the 21oz versionen also uses Texas Cotton. I highly doubt it. Just take a look at Flo's and my 21oz Samurai pairs we own. It is 99 % likely the same denim (although I saw someone claiming the 21oz denim on the S5000 and S510 differ, I don't really believe it).
Do you happen to have the actual measurements of the pair in question? Is it still unwashed? -
I think I remember that pair.
You are sure that is unwashed/unsoaked? Waist is 34,5" which sounds pretty logical to me after a soak/wash (shrinkage of 1,5" from tag size).
About which measurements you are concerned?edit: ok, the inseam sounds like a unwashed model…pretty undersized then. doable for me though
But I'm not a fan of those double arcs -
Yo Rafa, get a pair of Eternals!

The Eternal denim is AMAZING and takes some time but will be great! And I reall think the 811 cut would suit you
-
Do it! Size 34 or 36…you gotta see. 36 might be better in the waist and thighs, 34 better in the leg opening
-
I also have 811 on my wants list. Great cut, great fabric. Winner.

Just sold a pair of Samurai 701s. I initially loved the feel, but after a bunch of wear and the first wash (gentle no spin cold water) they began to blow out in a random spot. It was small and fixable but it made me really dislike the dry feeling of the denim, it seems so prone to this problem. Bought a pair of IH 301s instead
The softness and durability is by the perfect combo. -

I've just bought a pair off 883's and I totally agree with you about Eternal denim.
Perhaps we need to start an Eternal thread. I'll get some fit pics of mine happening soon.
RnR.

That's a goof idea! I looked for a Eternal thread, didn't find one but also didn't open a new one.
Please do it share your pics and thoughts of the 883 -
the macro of the tab is great!
