@samo thanks for the input. The one im thinking of is the SAMURAI JEANS Heavy Back Satin Trousers Olive SJ42BP. I saw them on "earthmarket" so was thinking about buying them. Might go with tag 32....but it sounds like most people like the quality of it...
-
@cyclops yeah those are the same fabric as the baker pants and they will give a bit in the waist.
-
It softens up a lot. I have one from last season and it's got 1 wash. I was surprised how much it's soften up with a wash and some wear. It's a nice lighter sweat shirt.

Marvellous fabric. My Masunagas peaking from pocket -
@cyclops Samurai sizing is interesting. I'm 36" in their s3000 zero denim and s3100 at 35" was too big. Check the specific cut. Generally 33-34" in IH too. Was lucky enough to visit Samurai jeans in Osaka. Amazing store and great service!

@Denimhead-0 said in Samurai Jeans:
@rasta Did it loose much indigo after first wash?
Maybe a bit, she definitely doesn’t get as much attention as she should. Too many hoodies in the rotation!

I picked up a pair of the recent 25oz release. Would you guys recommend soaking to them first to get any more shrinkage out? Or just wear them. They’re unsanforized, one-wash.

Got my SJ42BP today. Its super comfy, drapes well and has nice hand feels. Though i must admit my sense of "heavy" is now a bit warped cause i have been wearing my UHR daily. Like the pants feel so light and not heavy/tough at all. Also the sizing is bigger than i was expecting, should have sized down cause there is also some stretch too. Overall its very nice would highly recommend
-
@americanathreads I would recommend just wearing them. I also bought a one-washed pair and have about 5 days of yard work wear so far and they're breaking in nicely.
Did you go TTS?Just Another Denim Fanatic

@AskAxel Appreciate it! I went with my usual Samurai size of 34, I look for 34 inch waist measurements. Happy with the sizing.

Did you go TTS?Same experience with my pair of the one-wash. My pair had an abnormally tighter waist than it should have, but a couple of wears in and it's giving a little. Rest of the fit is on the baggier side, aside from the waist. I went 36 based on posted measurements, I usually wear a 35-35.5, these felt like they were around a 34.7. Looking forward to breaking them in.

Almost all Sammy today. Shirt, belt, jeans.
I am in love with the jeans, I love the shade, the slub the relaxed high rise fit and some nice little Samurai touches with the buttons and selvedge id.

Got a 710X19ozII in Samurais flagship store in Osaka.

Hey, @worn2fade I have a somewhat random request: can you measure the length of the fly on your new wide jeans? Not the front rise, the actual fly. The measurements on these are very similar to a pair of Polar big boy skate jeans that I love, but I think the rise may not actually be comparable because of the construction. Thanks in advance!
-
@sabergirl by fly do you mean top button to bottom button?
-
@worn2fade pretty much just for the top button to the bottom of the fly where the jeans are sewn together. Like this pic of my 463 which have a fly less than 8” long.
