Samurai is getting two 15th anniversary models ready. 25oz. Reminds me of another brand… whose initals start with I and end with H.

In any case, the jeans look badass.

Maybe the source from the same mill? Giles would most likely know about it. But the the Samurai one is unsanforized AFAIK

[Seul]

Just because it also happens to be 25 oz. doesn't necessarily mean it's the same denim…

[Jordan23]

Heard the same b_f!…getting these asap.

Enjoy ya addiction!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I'll let them pass.
I'm going to concentrate on other brands and more "regular" denim in the future

[Jordan23]

Looking forward to compare the Denim with the 25oz from IH.

What other Brands (regular denim) are you looking for?

Enjoy ya addiction!

UES or Real McCoys in April and later this year a pair of Eternal. So denim in the 14-15oz range

[Nerkg]

I'm with you. The 25oz. Is nice, but it's kinda novelty. I've settled back to just wanting 14-18oz. Denim.

Horses for courses, if we all liked the same thing then life would be dull.

b_F, thats a lot of denim man, when are you going to get time to wear it all?

[gbougard]

With the IH 25 oz models, I've developed an addiction for 25oz fabric. I hardly ever wear anything else. The first pair I bought has become soft and nicely aged. I remember quite fondly the Samurais I got when I started buying Japanese jeans. So I think I'll get a pair of those, in a loose fitting size rather than my real size, though.

[Seul]

Same here… Anything heavy just fails compared to the IH 25 oz... Personal preference, of course...

[Nerkg]

Put it this way… I love quality denim . All weights

since when I actually wear denim?

True, you just collect loads of beautiful jeans and hide them away.  Some day I'm going to sneak into Germany and raid your closet.  Just to liberate all that unfairly imprisoned denim…

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you're welcome man. No need to break in

I'm getting a pair of 710xx and I have skinny legs. Is the recommended sizing still tts even for skinny legs? I don't want them super slim as I already have a pair of 301s.
Thanks!

[Seul]

TTS is what I would suggest…
