@worn2fade Mate I think these look great on you! Sadly I missed out on getting a pair of these but i managed to buy a pair of the 25oz so I guess I can't complain. I've only had Samurai's 17oz zero+ denim before and the heaviest denim I have so far is the 888 UHR so I'm keen to see how these 25oz's go. Theyre set to arrive tomorrow!
-
@AskAxel there are a few stockist that still have them dude! Franklin and Poe being one of them & iron shop provisions recently told me they will have them soon. I heard samurai’s 25oz is awesome so I hope they work out for ya dude!

Post hot soak/hot wash photos. Measurements didn’t change ALL that much but I feel like they changed just enough.
Waist: 17.75” → 17.25”
Thigh: 15.25” → Same
Inseam: 32” → R/31.75” L/31.5”
Rise: 13.5” → 13.25”
Back rise: 18.5” → 18.25”
Hem: 11.375” → 11.25”Crazy amount of leg twist has taken place though. Not opposed to it, but definitely not something I’ve experienced with my IH journey (I never had their 16oz slub which I know is known for gnarly leg twist.)

@worn2fade said in Samurai Jeans:
he comfort here really is unmatched
I predict you're also going to love the extra air conditioning your legs will now have where you live!

@pechelman 100% man!

@worn2fade Great video, thanks for the update!
The 25oz arrived this afternoon. Initial impressions are very great, the texture is unreal. They aren't as firm as I expected, probably on par with the IH UHR but the texture is beautiful. Definitely a pain to button up, the gold buttons aren't as tacky in person. I normally wear a 32" and i sized up to a 33 in these and it was definitely the smart move. I would not be able to button up a 32 haha
I'll get some wear in over the weekend but I think I'll hang these while I break in my UHR as I've not yet hit 50 wears on those.I'll keep my eyes on Iron Shop, they have good rates on shipping to Aus. Although I really don't need another pair...
Just Another Denim Fanatic

Gave these a cold and hot soak to try to get all the shrinkage out of them. First thought love the fit n fabric! They do feel a little less hefty compared to my xhsib. Love the details throughout the jeans as well

For those of you that wanted but missed out on the heavyweight natural indigo and kakishibu dyed zip hoodie that released earlier this year, Self Edge just re-stocked them (S-XXL). From their email they said Samurai made a batch just for them, so I don't think others will be getting these and not sure if Samurai will bring this item back again.
-
@Nobunaga I was waiting and snagged a 2XL
-
@Nobunaga I’ve been waiting for this one, sized up to a large. Hoping it works out because this run looks slimmer than the size charts that are still up on other sites from last run.
-
@denami Same size as far as I can tell. I have one from each release.
-
@samo hmm, redcast and dant have large listed with a chest measure of 46.5” and 47.2”self edge for this run is listed 44.5”.
-
I find Self Edge to be an outlier on measurements. All I know is I have a size large from the original run and I bought a second from this run and they fit exactly the same. Could be I got lucky on that, I'm not sure.
-
@samo appreciate the feedback. My only other samurai piece is one of their flannels that is a medium and fits so this size chart threw me off.
-
@denami I can measure the large if you want. Just tell me what measurements you are looking for
-
@samo that will be awesome. Can you measure the chest, shoulder and center back length?
-
@denami mine is a size L:
Chest: 45”
Shoulder: 19.75” (straight across)
Length: 26.25 (from seam below hood to hem on the back)
