Samurai Jeans
-
Just received by black samurais 710bkb. First impression, they seem a bit roomier than what I was hoping for a slim cut. I got a tag-size 32 an the leg opening at the hem is 8.25". Does anybody has any experience soaking/shrinking 17oz 710s? how much to expect in terms of width shrinkage?
-
Got my pair incoming as well. Acutally I'm relieved they run roomy but then I always say that the 710 isn't exactly a Slim or even skinny cut, just one of the slimmest that Samurai does. You should get 5-7% shrinkage with a hot wash.

Oh @Jordan23 : great pair!
-
From Yuichi, I preordered them in January. BiG has the sizing up, compared to the 500XX they run smaller, but not too different from the 500OG.. A hair less thigh, a bit more taper and that's it.
I sized up to 35. Will let you know once they're here.
-
BIG measures are pretty accurate as far as I can tell comparing with my size 32 pants.
-
Yep, they were on spot for both the 500OG and 710 OG too.
-
Jeans looks good to me, but in my opinion the shirt looks to long and a bit too big
-
+1 (or +2)
-
My BKB arrived. Again, great service by Yuichi. I am disappointed by the small waist, only 34,5" at tagged 35". How much stretch can I ecpect from 17 oz? The other measurements are spot on.
W: 87cm
FR 30cm
BR: 41cm

I'll soak tomorrow and let you know then

@Max Power the Samurai jeans look awesome they should fade great. Keep us updated.

Max, that is strange you got such a tight waist on a tag size 35. It should have been 36". I know I got 33" on my tag size 32. Hopefully you can get them to stretch.
What are your thoughts on the cut, is the leg opening what you were expecting? it was a surprise to me how full the cut is thinking at first it would be slimmer. I have not worn mine yet, debating still if these are keepers.
I note in your pictures your pants do have the same hip flare as mine do, should soften with a few wears I hope.
