Samurai Jeans

[Beatle]

How long do you soak them ? That´s a lot of starch and dye…

[beautiful_FrEaK]

It was just an hour or so. There was instantly a lot of dye and even more came as I moved the jeans in the water. But they turned out darker after the soak

You could have done an overdye in  this soup.

Just saw that BIG has a Samurai model that is 24oz raw and FICKUNG 27oz post-wash… Anyone has this one?

The 24oz (regular) is stiff and a wee bit cardboard like, but OK. Nothing as spectacular as the SR from IH, but respectable nonetheless. But shit 27oz is amazing. Makes you wonder where the OZ-barrier is located… And where comfort is sacrificed.

LHT - softness it up a bit I'd imagine?

Probably not the most comfortable jeans in the world to wear.. But that selvage color is awesome  ::)

[Max Power]

Agreed, the selvage looks great. b_f, why does this item still miss in your collection?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I wanted the RHT 24oz model but it's soldout everywhere. LHT doesn't appeal to me THAT much altough I'm really looking forward to the S500JX-LR.
And at some point, money is an issue

[Max Power]

…not when it comes to Samurai, right?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

There is always a limit you shouldn't cross

At least Samurai don't have an English forum…that's why I spam here

Another well known source -if not the source- for Samurai denim is: http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/2nd/br-sj-r/sj-411-01-r.html. They only speak English via translator software, but ordering has never been a problem.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yes 2nd has the whole Samurai collection. I prefer Yuichi because it's easier to write with him and he sometimes has nice offers

Can you give me the post soak measurements for your S5000VX as we are the same waist size.

thanks
