@Denimhead-0 Looks great! It’s giving IB denim. Might just be my eyes, but basing off how dark that indigo is by looking at the cuff. Is it summer approved denim?

@Denimhead-0 Looks great on you! I have this one also. The color is so good. I have to wear it as an under layer during the colder months since it is so thick. Plus, the neck hole is so big for me that I wear a shirt under it. I might need to pick up the green one at some point.

@RoxRocks86 The denim is IB, 666 14oz IB. The Tee is definitely better for fall
-
@Denimhead-0 gotcha! Thanks for the clarification!

@RoxRocks86 I have a samurai "slubby" crewneck, they're pretty cool, but a lot different in what you imagine of slub on jeans haha.
Nice tee @Denimhead-0

The chesnut selvedge is a very cool piece that I hope they run again someday. Super interested to see how that will age

@sabergirl said in Samurai Jeans:
How stretchy is it by comparison to the 1600 11oz IH tees @Denimhead-0 ?
Pretty firm out of the bag, limited stretch. Will report back after the wash and some more wear.

@warriors22 i....was about to pull the trigger on these over at denimio, but didnt want to start another 25oz just yet. Keen to get your thoughts though, i wonder what the fit is like....
-
I was definitely curious too but the cut looks a little slim for me. Gonna patiently wait for a 634-XHSib restock before taking the 25oz journey
-
@Jord lol might need to check out these slubby tees!
-
For those thinking about the 25oz, I bought a pair in Japan (just got back the U.S.). They are super nice - definitely heavy, but more compliant and less stiff than XHS right out of the gate. The denim has a touch of slub to it and the gold Selvedge ID / buttons are badass. Super blingy, but most people will never know.
-
@KongPrecision Glad I pulled the trigger on these!! I’m on vacation now and can’t wait to get back home to these. Did you get them raw or one wash?
-
@warriors22 I don't believe these are raw. I'm not 100% sure if they are washed or sanforized or both (I dont speak Japanese so there was a bit of a language barrier), but the guy conveyed to me that they shouldn't shrink much.
-
@KongPrecision damn that does look good. Its a straight fit yeah? Hows the fit? I've not had samurai so thanks for the good feedback. I see there is a size 34 left with 33" on denimio. So...tempted. but im waiting on 21oz in the 888s....and i have XHS. It would be crazy to get this right??

@popvulture I have two of tees in white/natural, one henley in natural, and i just bought another tee in the dark kuri/brown. I initially wanted the black/kuromame but in person it was more like charcoal dark grey and not black enough for my taste. The dark kuri has an insane depth of colour. No fading on that one yet as I'm only a few wears in.
I have had the natural's for about 6months now and there has been no change. They quickly became my favourite tee's. The texture and drape is unreal and the fit is perfect for me. I haven't touched my wonderlooper or bronson tees since buying these and have no desire to wear any other t-shirt tbh.
