      I was also hoping for slow faders but they are the fastest I've ever owned. And I also went up one size - should be perfect in the long run.

        Really happy with the fit, the denim is superb, just wish they'd do a no fade for smarter times. Will practice my penguin walk and try resist lower body movement 🙂

              any of you folks own or have fondled a Samurai oxford/button down office shirt?  if so, any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. i'm specifically concerned with quality (fabric feel, buttons, how its stitched up) & sizing (easy enough if I can find a size chart I trust  :'() .

              thanks in advance for any help.

                I acquired a few over the years - quality, fabric, pattern, fit and workmanship is more than fine. Fit is more on slimmer side…

                I'm right in between size L and XL - size XXL is hard to get by, if on offer at all.

                Let's see if I can find some pics...

                  Here are 2 of the less-workwear button-down shirts…

                  Fabrics are substantial & unique & outstanding.


                  Depending on the style and the fabric there can be lots of selvage details…

                  Their work-shirts are more on the generous, forgiving side with the contours…

                            thanks @FOXY I tried BIG & it looks like they don't have them anymore. If not too much trouble, could you advise on what your Sammie shirts measure & if they shrink?  I think I might just jump on one in XL  and be done with it.

                            After I grab this I'll be grabbing at least one UES oxford.

                            Oxfords are my current thing  😞

                                  Most of my Samurai button-down shirts are in Berlin, not here in Moscow.
                                  The only shirt made with the same pattern that I have with me is this one made from a persimmon Oxford…


                                  Lots of selvage details around the cuffs…

                                  3 button collar…

                                  As you can see this shirt is from their 2013 collection and a size XL…

                                  I took some measurements…





                                  Like most of the Japanese shirts I own (RJB for example), the Samurai button-downs are on the small and slim side. The tricky part for me being the measurements of the waist line…
                                  This particular shirt is in size XL, while my 2 white ones are in size L (IIRC) - this is probably due to the fact, that these shirts are made from raw fabrics (which shrinks individually) and pattern adjustments resulting in model specific measurements.
                                  I would guess, that a size XL in the white shirts would be wider than this particular shirt.
                                  Their work-shirts are more generous in the measurements and straight in the waist.

                                  Here is the link to a gallery of some of my Samurai shirts...

                                    very helpful information.

                                    Think I'll risk an XL oxford from DENIMIO

                                    thanks again

                                      Certainly some of the nicest shirts out there - good luck!

                                      Hopefully, Denimio has stock - the other day they came back to me when inquiring for measurements of some shirts saying they have no stock although the website said otherwise…

                                        I was lucky enough to score a pair of S0110XJII last night at 50% off at BiG. I usually buy a 33 in IH but bought a 34 due to availability. I have read a big of conflicting info but I as I understand it, the Jin denim shrinks hard but stretches easily. I'm hoping they fit, they look like a great classic fitting jean.

                                            Does anyone know any other brands that have cuts similar to Samurais S0500. The size 33 specs are perfect for what I'm looking for. I was just wondering if there might be some different denim choices out there with other brands. I wish they made it in the 19 or 17oz.
