Samurai Yamato 001jp :: 3y/o = 14mos effective wear

Samurai 5000ai-10sp

mine was TTS @W33.  i did have a problem early on about the fabric being in constant/perpetual flux.  normally, denim stabilizes quite a bit after a 2nd soak,  but  denim on these kept yoyo-ing between shrink/stretch well beyond the 2nd soak.

stretching the waist back out was such a pain [literally] due to the stiffness & ruggedness of the denim.  also,  i learned about a couple of owners who complained about fabric tears & thread breakage, so i thought i'd do  periodic soaks to temper & stabilize the fabric … 'stuck a wooden hanger @waistband every time.

anyway,  here's mine after @4yrs = 18mos+  effective wear.  these [true blues] are like the "True Blood" of the denim world  … they just won't get old,  nor fade away.

@Megatron1505:

George, they look fantastic. Could I be a pain and ask for a close up shot of the denim please?

I tried, but fail to do better than they did on BiG's site! Their pics are very accurate:

denim is the same as that of S0110XJ, that have a more relaxed fit and identical rise.

I like the details: outer seams as in the reference pattern, the Japanese lantern label (which resembles the bell of the brand "Blue Bell"), stealth arcs, hickory stripes pocket bags and rear pockets linings, chambray lining as shown in the first pic from above.

Being halfway between straight and slim, you call them the Samurai version of Buster RAW. In some ways.

I would sure love to see some evo pics of these. I'm gonna send you a PM… I have similar ones except the denim is lighter. I might snag these up on Ratuken. Depending on how they look when they fade. I love how these have felled outside seams.

S0210XJ ? the Wrangler-pros are not felled outseam,  just topstitched.

^I wasn't sure what it would be called. Thank you for setting me straight.

man, if anyone happens across a pair of the s710 balck hawks that already sold out at BiG in a size 30, or has one that didnt work out for them please PM me. Went to purchase this morning and already sold out.

I don't think that they even went on sale yet.  The store opens at 11:00 am (NY time), so I assume they will go on sale at that time.  The website lists all sizes as sold out in both models, which is probably impossible.

^this
the stock isn't updated yet. But to make sure just write Gordon an email
