Samurai Jeans

[khaki8]

New Sammy 710 16oz organic cotton is out. BIG has it and Rakuten has a few people. I size up on these and then put them in the dryer. Shrink quite a bit…some of the nicest jeans ever...little bit of Sammy crunchiness and really dark color. Love the 710 fit..

You're talking about the 710OG right?

[khaki8]

That's it Mega….good sleuthing

[NorthernVictory]

How does the 710 cut compare to the S5000? The 710, in many pictures, look very much like a straight leg jean.

[khaki8]

710 has more rise and more tapered below the knee….great fit

[Max Power]

True, and the 710 was never the skinny fit that some people claim them to be. Slim straight probably fits better.

[khaki8]

Fits like 634….

[NorthernVictory]

Would you say the 634 is a bit fatter/looser? I'd like to get a pair of Samurai, but unsure whether to get the 710 or S5000. I wear all 634 cuts in a 30 preferably. In the overdyed 634S-B, I can fit into a 29 (but still prefer 30, I think - need to try a 29 more).

[khaki8]

I sized up in 710 to 38 and put them in the dryer to shrink them. Need to do it twice to get all the shrinkage out. They are still more generous than 634..which I prefer. There is nothing like the Samurai denim. Remember all Samurai is raw and unsanforized.

New Samurai 710OG Size 38.

Pre soak fit.

Bath time!

Pre soak measurements

Waist 40"
Thigh 13.1"
Hem 9.8"
Inseam 37"

[FurattoHeddo]

Are you sure about those thigh measurements? @Megatron1505

[Megatron1505]

Pre wash? Yup.

[pillowPANTS]

Im guessing he measured the thigh 1" below the crotch Furatto. Am i correct Mega?

[Megatron1505]

I did, wearing them now post soak, the waist is now exactly 38", which is fine but Max says the denim has plenty of stretch so that is a concern. Fit elsewhere has tightened up nicely, can't be bothered to measure it this late at night though.

They are pretty slim but not overly so, which works for me because I'm not built for skinny jeans. I'm going to wear them for a few days before deciding whether to give them a machine wash to clear up any remaining shrink.

[pillowPANTS]

Im in the same boat for most sizes Gav. Wish some brands would make a sz37 fuck. Check the other measurements when u get a chance for me

[khaki8]

Mega..I love my pair of these….super nice crunchy denim...and super fit..I haven't found a lot of stretch in my Sammies

[khaki8]

Pillow pants…I am a36 or 37 and the 38 fits perfect after putting them in the dryer....they shrink up more and the fabric becomes a little tighter. I have the 19 oz Sammy also and went 38...all the other Sammies are 36.

[pillowPANTS]

Right on. Thx man

No good ones, I'll do those at the weekend when the rain stops (hopefully).
