The S0510XX uses 100% Texas cotton which is famous for being a "rough"
cotton due to it's high amount of short fibers. Normally, the short
fibers are removed to make a smoother fabric, but Samurai adds
more short cotton fibers to make the yarn even rougher. The result is
a yarn that is highly uneven in size, making the woven fabric very
"slubby" (irregular). Moreover, while most jean manufacturers mix
different cottons from various areas, Samurai uses only 100% Texas
cotton in the S0510XX. Even the thread is made of 100% Texas cotton.
This creates a jean that captures the essence and spirit of this tough
Texas denim.
Like all Samurai jeans, the S0510XX uses 100% pure indigo with no
fillers, using the maximum amount of indigo that the yarn can hold.
Weighing in at 15 ounces, Samurai also maximized the tension of the
weave, so that after washing, the denim actually becomes even more
stiff and the weave even tighter resulting in a jean with unprecedented "atari" (fading).
Measurements are in inches and pre-wash: **Measurements are
based on averages taken from multiple pairs of the same size and style.
As these garments are made by hand, measurements may vary slightly for
each individual pair. Our posted measurements are meant as a guide to
the overall fit and silhouette of the garment. Please take this into
