Samurai Jeans

Beautiful_Freak, this forum is very honest. Beats told Finn that his Sams look better on his body than his IH !! There is no fake bullshit going on here. Monday is pretty honest with constructive criticisms about IH looks and fits too. Dude, I really hope you'll try a pair of BB-Raw. You have the ideal physique for them ! (you're pretty fucking hot if I may say so myself). Damn, if I had the money right now, I'd buy one each of every style of BB available and Devils Fit. I don't, unfortunately – huge expenses this year for various untold reasons. I'm saving up for IH clothes appropriate for my upcoming Mt. Whitney trip. That's one thing...no other Japanese Denim brand has anything suitable for a Mt. Whitney climbing trip -- none other than IH. If there were other alternatives, I'd look into them, but there aren't. Heavy weight denim is doable but I need the toughness and the paraffin...who else has that except IH ? What if it rainstorms during my hike ? Trust me, it has happened to my Mum. Not fun. You want to be protected, head 2 toe.

Like Monday, I very rarely wade in, but in this case I am going to. Because of who I am and what I do, it is difficult for me to come across as objective, so please bear in mind, I am trying to be.
There are a lot of people on this forum with a great passion for Iron Heart. There are also a lot of people with a great passion for other brands, some people (probably the vast majority) love a variety of brands.
It was me who created the board "other denim and garment brands", specifically because I wanted to engender discussion about loads of stuff. Yes, I am passionate about Iron Heart, but I also own TFH. Sammy, PBJ, Roy, Sugare cane, Warehouse etc etc. I own them because I love quality constructed clothes.
My feeling is that if you are in the Aston Martin owners club and all you do is go on about how fantastc Ferarris are you're likely to get a few negative vibes, I think that perhaps the comment about IH copying Nudie who had copied Lee was probably the straw that broke the camels back.
If there was a Sammy Forum, I would likely join, but I certainly would not exclusively post about Iron Heart.
Come people it is the feckin week end lets chill.

…I think that perhaps the comment about IH copying Nudie who had copied Lee was probably the straw that broke the camels back....
I agree. Maybe that wasn't the politest and best formulation I used and I'm sorry that it started such a discussion.
And about th variety of brands: next one is FC or IH. Whereas FC is in the lead right now (I'm sure I did something wrong again
j/k)Thanks for the info about DC4. Planning a trip to Berlin in the near future to check it all out personaly…and if they would carry the raw Busters, it would just be peferct

lol..seriously , BF , going from Samurai to Fullcount will be like wearing sweatpants..stick to plan B and get some extra heavy Busted & Raw jawns…there´s ur upgrade
We can do anything

lol…yeah I know that Fullcount would be the opposite direction. but would make my Osaka5 complete
(ok that's not so important) -
-
yeah the back pocket placement is really…Lee-style far apart.
how about opening a Fullcount-thread here, Flash? -
S510AI-OGSP
So…a nice little box
With a nice content
And also this (bigger than I thought)

Pre-soak fit
Pre-soak measurements
waist: 34
front rise: 12
back rise: 15,75
thigh: 13,5
knee: 10,25
leg opening: 9,25
inseam: 38,125 -
they fit nearly perfect at the waist right now but they should shrink a bunch. I'm positive they will give me a classical fit. like my other 510-cut models. and yes, they are the AI model

Reminds me of these Onis - why oh why did I sell these…

That denim has amazing character, very nice. What's the bag for?
To cover Lando's eyes when he stumbles into this thread…
Good one Seul! I honestly have no issue with Samurai denim. In fact, I really enjoy it fading characteristics and admire the range of cuts. Continue the Samurai discussion, my eyes are wide open!
-
I agree with you on that one. Samurai puts out a lot of new jeans. It's like inflation
but you can't deny that the last year was also pretty busy for IH (Beatle Buster, 666: all in multiple denims) -
I kinda understand Lando but still…I'm only posting in the "Other brands" section and to say ones personal opinion should always be allowed.
If it wasn't allowed I would have deleted it. Was only posting my opinion about your statement. I understand that this is "Other Brands" and I honestly have no problem with people posting their thoughts/ opinions on them. Just find it odd because I don't believe you own a single piece of IH and yet, you are on the IH Forum posting about Samurai. I am officially done commenting on this subject. Have fun shitting on IH, just don't be surprised if you get on folks nerves… Respectfully, L
right lando;-)
