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

@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...

@AskAxel thanks man! Really appreciate it. Im between sizes for their 32 tag. so wasnt sure whether to go 31.5 or 32.6 etc..... with orslow and other pants they always have a bit of give, so i wasnt sure how much these have etc. So thanks for the feedback!

Hey guys has anyone tried on their heavy chinos before? Just asking about SJ42BP and wondered whether they have much stretch? Or any general feedback on them?

@Northman haha im thinking the same....though i definitely dont need more jeans. Or do i???

@AskAxel out of interest where did you get the 25oz from shipped to oz?

@dirtyframer i have both....the rise of both are similar and good, both sit well. I like the 555s for top block but its the thighs for me is the difference. So if you have bigger thighs, then i would say go for the 888s. And also i feel as im getting older, having more room in my jeans feels good, i feel the 888 retains the slimish look as it tapers, so its the best of both worlds....

Im waiting for these both too. But yeah given you have the 888sbg, maybe the indigo is the missing one?

@indigo_nico yeah agreed it stretches. Plus i feel washing it in the machine with proper agitation all of the shrinkage comes out uniformally as well, dont feel the need to baby it. Just soak it thoroughly and chuck it in. For one of my pairs i did 55c degrees and it didnt shrink enough. But i found with the washing machine and agitation it got it to where i wanted....

@JunkPants and @warriors22 whats the stretch like on the 25oz?

Yeah i agree. I love that you guys do a separate shoot and its also outdoors. Plus the music is always on point

@endo thanks! Will check it out

@endo what pants is that? Looks great!

@KongPrecision damn that does look good. Its a straight fit yeah? Hows the fit? I've not had samurai so thanks for the good feedback. I see there is a size 34 left with 33" on denimio. So...tempted. but im waiting on 21oz in the 888s....and i have XHS. It would be crazy to get this right??

Is...it too early to ask when the first pieces will drop??

@warriors22 i....was about to pull the trigger on these over at denimio, but didnt want to start another 25oz just yet. Keen to get your thoughts though, i wonder what the fit is like....

Does the cookie acceptance thing pop up for everyone else each time you go to the product page? I cleared my cache but still see it pop up, its not a big deal, but just wondered if its my own device issue etc. I only noticed it after this restock change to the website etc

Initially i thought this was a bit more boxy than the 293 as its pretty thick, but now im wearing it in its starting to drape very nicely and settling down. So good!!

@Denimhead-0 awesome thanks man! This really helps me make an informed decision

@Jord yeah fair enough. But like for me, i typically look for 32.5 inches as my go to. But like for the 666xhs, i found i needed 33inches and more

So just wondered between them you stuck to a similar figure. But it sounds like for the 634 you go a little bit bigger. Which i will have a think....thanks!
