Thanks. It has evolved a bit since that, I will post updates in a few days.

Great pair, Samurai has top-quality denim but I dislike these arcs completely.

Got paid an unexpected (but very welcome) small bonus this month so I decided to treat myself to a pair of S5000VX 25oz Samurai, 15th Anniversary edition. The only pair I could find was a size down from my normal size so I'm going to have to do some strategic shrinking or them, and keep a bit of weight off, but after spending the best part of the last 2 years in Iron Hearts 25oz I am super intrigued to see how the Samurai's compare.

These are raw, are'nt they!

Enjoy ya addiction!

[Megatron1505]

Yep, hence the strategic shrinking

Mega, where do you get your Sammies online?

[Megatron1505]

I've always bought my Sammies from 2nd, not shopped there for a number of years but their service is still great if you don't mind translating every email into simplified Japanese.

[Megatron1505]

Plus, depending on your size, they always seem to have a few hidden gems of older stuff in stock.

Also highly recommendable is kaizoku pirates. Saves you the translator (although it can be funny. But not, if you ask them to hem your jeans, have them told in 5 different ways what length you need and they still dont get it.)

Super. Thanks fellas

I've bought from 2nd  too & agree with @Megatron1505  great service used google translate & had no problems

Also bought from blue in green in NY great service fast shipping

2nd - good service & fast.
They usually don't give measurements, though - but they make comparative statements at times…

[Finkster]

Kaizoku Pirates / Rakuten is very good - two orders, no problems, quick and straightforward
Blue in Green - ditto!

[Fergz]

Thanks for the testimonials gents. Am curious to try ordering from Japan, import duties aside. Will have to see what the taxman says about that of course.
