Samurai Jeans
-
@BD81 , sorry man they have been gone from my possession for years.
-
@BD81 Same for me…I don't like heavy weight denim at all anymore and sold all my heavy jeans.
I think my heaviest jeans weigh around 16oz or 17oz and that's as heavy as I want
-
@BD81 I'm in the same boat - 15/16 oz is about my Maximum These days. Also, I only owned the 21 oz Samurais. You can find the most recent updates on them on my instagram @max_power_denim

Well that's kind of dissapointing. Thanks anyways guys
I love heavy jeans.. cant wait to try IH. 24oz N&F was my first, Samurai my second, IH will be 3rd. Should have made it 1st by the sound of things im hearing. -
To be honest the 23oz N&F seemed to be about the same weight as the 25oz Samurais.
-
@bd81 you come to these things when you come to them. I went in the same order as you. I got rid of my N & F as their denim felt like a gimmick. I still love my SJ denim. It's just IH is better quality. Also, this is all coming from people who love IH so much they talk to strangers (who have become friends, of course :)) about IH products. If SJ had the foresight to do a fourm, you might see the same fevor for them.

I guess the only way to find out is to buy a pair of IH .

after a long hiatus, I've been wearing my Iron Heart 18 ounce IHSH-177 all day. (I hot machine washed it on a 2 hour cycle and then put it in the dyer for an hour gasp), and, I don't think 25 ounce Samurai denim is as heavy as Iron Heart 18 ounces. I am making this comparison because I like heavy denim, and also both denims are very rough and hairy. Both are similar in texture and color.

I have been wearing the shit out of these and they are starting to fade pretty nice. Cant wait to get me some 25oz IH ! -

-

These are tagged 34 and they have stretched to 36, Will Iron Heart stretch this much? I know it says one inch in the description. Samurai description said that 34 would stretch back out to raw measurement (34). I really worked at stretching them, i guess what I'm asking is has anyone really tried to stretch I.H ? Like using a knee or foot and pulling as hard as possible on the waist kind of trying or two legs tn the thigh as far as possible then trying to spread them? Not just normal wear stretch. Maybe i should just go a size up lol
-
Haha I'm not that dedicated to it. I already tore the pocket bag trying to stretch the pockets on these. I think sizing up is the way to go it will also make the jeans last longer. I guess a bit too big in the waist is better than too tight in the long run. I have had these samurais since august and i have already had to repair them 3x. Hopefully IH is a bit more durable
-
I'm thinking that If i always wear a belt IH prob won't stretch that much in the waist anyhow?
