Samurai Jeans

I've been rocking the Samurai 19oz in the 510 cut, the Kiwami denim. This one just blows my mind. Just as good as the IH 634S.

Sadly, I can no longer fit 634s as the thighs are too tight.

I have since purchased some ONI 200s, and the thigh fit is good.

I am looking for a unicorn pair of jeans that combines the fabric/colour/fade similar to the IH-634S-B (sulphur dyed) with the thigh width of the ONI 200, but preferably in a mid-rise.

AI has recommended the Samurai S5000BK II "Zero". However, I am unfamiliar with Samurai Jeans.

What do you guys think? Open to all brand suggestions.

@Bridger I wouldnt say that fit compares to the oni 200 really at all.
Maybe naked and famous have done a black selvedge mij in their strong guy ?

@the246guy I agree …..510 is a nice relaxed cut for me, have been rocking the 21oz version most of the winter. Hope the new IH 684 fits similar.

Thanks @nytimes_gaiden - that's a brand that has not been on my radar.

@Bridger they are hit and miss though a bit cheaper than the Japanese brands. But they have definitely made a LOT of different denims over the years. definitely double check but the strong guy and Oni 200 are both wide/ straight cuts. The samurai 5000 is straight as well but not really very wide, shorter at the top, and smaller in the top block.

@Bridger try sizing up with the 510 ?

[Bridger]

That's useful to know, thanks @nytimes_gaiden

[Bridger]

Thanks for the suggestion @BD81

@BD81 IH 684 is also something that I have my eyes on. The relaxed fit is what I'm also after. The 634 somehow is still a bit snug.
