Samurai Jeans

Fingers crossed!
-
with the quality and fit of my Samurai oxford shirt I am super stoked to get these.
I kept talking my self out of taking the plunge but after looking around the market at the current offerings and your stellar review decided why the hell not.

I will be watching this thread for your impressions @madmonday.

I got my processing order confirmation for the S510XX25oz-20th today from Denimio. Pretty stoked.
-
I honestly have no idea. But I know they are raw. So yeah maybe?
-
Yeah they should be 25oz raw and shrink to 27oz after wash. But if they will be really that heavy, who knows?!
-
Waited too long and my size are now sold out in the chinos
Think they come back in June so will try them then
-
20th anniversary goodness. The tonal stitching and super dark denim is pretty badass. Pre-soak fit is what I expected. Post soak Will be coming.
Killer pocket bags

Nice fit! I think it's crazy how black they appear on all pictures.

My size 35 arrived yesterday and I'm quite happy. They are darker than I thought, so.

They are so dark. They look nearly black in person as well as pics.

I will be sure to let you know as soon as it arrives.

@Seul haven't forgotten about the bag. It arrived at my house but I won't be home for at least another week.
Also my 25oz anniversary jeans were shipped a couple days ago. I can't wait to get those.

I got home earlier than expected. I was delighted by the bag. It's pretty great. I'd rate it 9 out of 10. But, it's certainly not ultra heavy or Iron Heart.
I was very pleased with the size. I think it has more cubic inches than my current Timbuk2 bag. Which is impressive because that bag is massive.
The zippers are nice and beefy and oversized which I love.
The denim is awesome as fuck and has this rough texture on the back. It feels like brand new thermal underwear because of the raised threads. Plenty of character. It feels about the same weight as cone mills or similar. But the texture on the back adds about 1/3 more depth and weight.
The selvedge detail.
The leather is on the thin side. But feels about the same as something you'd get on a leather jacket. It is very soft and pliable. Buttery soft as they say.
It's interesting that the whole bottom is not leather. I would have made the bottom solid leather.
Also the flannel inside is very loud. I like it though. It has a lot of texture and is not smooth at all.
And I love the vented back. And the straps have lots of padding. They should be quite comfortable.
I feel very fortunate to finally have a Japanese denim bag. I've wanted one for a very long time. It's really nice and very lightweight. It's almost all pros. But a few cons:
-thin leather and not a full leather bottom
-loud flannel interior
-denim is not heavy- I don't see this lasting more than a few years since it is so lightweight. But I plan on thoroughly beating the shit out of it.
Plenty of room for a big laptop.
