Picked up the Black and also the Olive Bakers from Iron Shop Provisions. These things are sooo comfortable.

Missed out on the initial release earlier this year but was lucky to find a restock.
My hands were blue with indigo after handling it a bit for these pics.

Samurai’s S500AX-Sakura 18oz. Was intrigued by the weft being sakura dyed. There is a soft blush of pink in the weft that’s hard to photograph, but it’s pretty cool.

@RoxRocks86 I live the fit. Did you size them similar to IH? You feel they fit similar to 634's. I was looking for a pair but I am on the fence on sizing
-
Does anyone have experience with samurai flannels? Do they tend to shrink? On a website that is selling some it sounded like with a cold wash and line dry it will shrink anyway. Just wondering people expect this and its the norm? Its almost like they are making out it might shrink to fit
-
@cyclops. I did get a Samurai flannel recently, well within the past couple of months but I haven't washed it. Feeling at the fabric it seems to me that will behave similar to the 9oz IH. In other words, you can shrink it if that is what you intending to do,with hot washing it and putting it in the dryer, or you can cold wash it and hung dry for minimal shrinkage.

Love these Bakers. Really want to score one of those Hoodies in 2XL, but missed the boat.

@yannis thanks heaps for your thoughts

Hey @yannis this pair is a size up of what I would’ve actually got due to size not being available so it does have more of a relaxed/baggy fit. Also, the pair of 634‘s I have is 1 1/2 sizes smaller with a fitted top block so can’t really compare it with Samurai’s straight cut either. But out of curiosity I measured the sakura’s the IH way and compared it to IH’s 634 in the 17oz & 18oz denims and would say measurements are somewhat within the ballpark. I did notice the Samurai’s having a slightly lower rise (-1/2”) and marginally narrower thigh (-1/8”). These are also my first pair of samurai’s and got them on a whim without knowing anything about their fits. Just based it off of what measurements I could work with so take what I say with a grain of salt. Apologies as I’m not the best at giving advice on fit.
