Samurai Jeans

Yea a wash is the way to go to get full shrinkage , your still wearing sour 0500's aren't you Finn ? Really need to get another pair myself , had to sell my pair after losing weight

[Finn666]

yap still going strong buddy…just got the crotch reinforced again, so they actually are ready to hit the road again...shit, i might put´em on for the rest of the day, if i can force myself to take of my 666Sod

easy answer: inform yourself better before spending 350$ in a rush.
learn more about this stuff and don't consume it like fastfood.

the waist won't be a problem, flash is right. it will easily stretch back and even beyond raw measurements. about the inseam: well you will see. stretching back the inseam is even harder IMO.

you got them from SE BIG right?…normally the guys there should know there stuff and you should have walked out the door with a "postsoak perfect fitting" pair of jeans in your bag... :-\

Nice to hear your still wearing them finn , the overall colour of your 0500's is soo nice

Ok inseam measures from the crotch 32.  I also managed to button the top button wet.  They fit fine wet but let's see when they dry what happens

how do you like your S510XX21oz so far, Alex?

[kit99bar]

email Gordon at Big and he can assist you with red tab ones.

@RocknRoll:

to get 'Red Tab' Samurai's you will need to buy from a non-USA store. DC4 has a few models (but more pricey than BIG), and you can also try Rakuten. No doubt there are other places too.

Yamato 001jp  ::  3 washes

[MikeC]

What is Yamato?  I've also seen yamane, anyone?

[Flash]

yamoto basically means Japan and I think by yamane you are thinking of Hidehiko yamane the owner of evisu

After all this talk about samurai shrinkage I decided to do a hot wash to my new 710s.  They probably had about a week wear on them, and I had given them two hot soaks previous to the hot wash I did.  After the wash they shrank up a ton tho, especially in the inseam and thigh/knee. TTS 33, original length.  For reference I am 6' 3" and 175 pounds

That's a perfect fit bf

[beautiful_FrEaK]

thx Sal but you can say that also about  corporalclegg's fit and your will be great too (I just hope the length will work for you in the long run fingers crossed)

[MikeC]

Forget the cuff Sal. You look better with stacks, IMHO.

[Dirty Denim]

Ima wear these today with some stacks…Lets see how they look
