        In fact, I've never seen a 5000 fitting that slim (and good).

            Thanks again fellas… It's odd to me that the straight fits end up fitting me like most slim fits but guess it must have to go with the waist height ratio.... 6'6" with a 30 waist. Anyway definetly happy with the fit, they work great with boots, but a bit short for sneakers (IMO).  😉

                    just received my 15th anniversary 25oz Samurais (S5000VX25oz, I think they are called) from BIG in NYC.
                    the fabric has the nicest color and texture. Does NOT feel as heavy as IH 25oz model, feels more like a 21-23 IH. the cut is a bit baggier than the IH 634 and its waist is slightly lower
                    great pants, quite frankly.

                      Weird, I was under the impression that the S5000 cut was a touch slimmer than the 634 cut for some reason. Did you wash them or just soak them? Are they slubby at all?

                        I sized up to 36 and I'm usually a 34, so that may be the reason.
                        I havent washed them yet
                        They are wonderfully slubby

                              Fading pattern on the 710 is different. Less slubby, more contrast and a grey sheen. TBH, I never was too fond of the 0500 in terms of fading. But the cut and slubby denim is great.

                              That's my 710:

                              and my 500, same denim.

                                The 0500 has a great texture and interesting concept. Still it doesn't fade that dramatically like the 19oz denim.
                                But if you want to see the range the 0500XX can fade, take a look here:

                                    agree w/Max & b_F on contrast fading.  there are other denim types for that.
                                    however, the 500s remain as the [ultimate] Texas cotton experience for me.

                                    mine was a LOT 9, acquired waaay back when not a lot of peeps know what "slubby" was.
                                    the cut, indigo hue, & slub experience was like sex, for the very 1st time.

                                      Is there a way to tighten the button and its backing part on a samursi's fly buttons…. One of mine is not attached very well and think if I can get a little piece of steel down in the hole on the buttons front and hit the two securing pins they will bend down further and MAke this a bit more secure and together as a piece. This one button is annoying the shit out if me and keeps coming undone cause its soooo loose

                                            mine was TTS @W33.  i did have a problem early on about the fabric being in constant/perpetual flux.  normally, denim stabilizes quite a bit after a 2nd soak,  but  denim on these kept yoyo-ing between shrink/stretch well beyond the 2nd soak.

                                            stretching the waist back out was such a pain [literally] due to the stiffness & ruggedness of the denim.  also,  i learned about a couple of owners who complained about fabric tears & thread breakage, so i thought i'd do  periodic soaks to temper & stabilize the fabric … 'stuck a wooden hanger @waistband every time.

                                            anyway,  here's mine after @4yrs = 18mos+  effective wear.  these [true blues] are like the "True Blood" of the denim world  … they just won't get old,  nor fade away.
