Samurai Jeans

[Max Power]

Thanks guys! I love ruedis jeans, but I will always argue with anybody, that thinks wearing jeans completely raw is a real option. It is doable, but is against everything that is linked with the history and intention of blue jeans as working clothes. It will weaken the fabric, look and feel unnatural and  I prefer the optic of washed pairs. Not to mention the smell. (But it takes some commitment and craziness top do it, and ruedi has both ;))

You could nearly write a book on the differences. For that kind of question, just do your research. That's half the fun. The 634sr is not availible anyway, it was limited edition and long gone now.

[Denimrox]

Okok. But can anyone from here Sammie's holders can tell me more about their jeans?? Pls~~~ especially s5000vx21oz!!

5000VX: I only had those in 17 oz I think… I'm pretty sure the cut on the 634S'es is a fuller one, especially thigh-wise... That is if you go true to size (which I'd advice)... The 634SRs are defo a fuller cut but no longer available so...

[Denimrox]

Sorry to ask this noob question but do you mean by the thigh are FULLER ones?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

the thighs are bigger…more room

[Max Power]

IMO, there is not that much difference between the 634 and 5000 cut. Both are midrise straight cuts, somewhat 66 inspired (but not as slim as many other 66 models). However, I owned the 634 in 32 and 33 and my 5000 is 34. If sized like that, the thighs are also pretty similar. The Samurai 21 oz denim fades great and pretty quick, whereas the IH is harder to fade (generally speaking). The Samurai denim is a tad stiffer and slubbier, although it doesn't make much difference on heavy denim.

[Denimrox]

Oh I see. Thank you guys. Therefore I can say that the 2 denims are somewhat similar just that IH are harder to break in as compare to samurai? So IH are more durable? Cos in the past my nudie there is a hole at the crouch area. So now I going for more durable jeans. Which I can say that IH will be a better choice?

You're on the Iron Heart forum… Guess what jeans we will advice you to get...

[Denimrox]

Hahaha! I got u Yo! Hahaha! And I can say that 634s is there raw or unsanforized for it? And I notice it like 634s is like a classic pair of IH jeans that people will have as their first pair jeans then followed by others.

If you want a raw Unsanforized 634S, get the 634SV aka The Vulcan. It's similar to the 634S, but the 634SV has slimmer legs and a lower rise. Instead of 21oz denim, it's 18oz, but its way tighter and warmer than the flagship 21oz (which is sanforized).

[Denimrox]

OMG man. My legs are huge. 24inches thigh and 36 inches waist:( slimmer legs I will have a tough time man. LOL!

[Denimrox]

Mike I am more into raw as their fitting I personally feel that is better than those sanforized ones.

Decided to give my 15th anni 17oz s5000vx a second chance today.

[Blackheart]

Wow tat, those look amazing on you! What a fit!

[tatmantall]

[Blackheart]

Absolutely, they're perfect on you, with age they'll be epic.
