Samurai calls this the "Cloth of Super Excellence" and for good reason. Woven
on vintage wooden shuttle looms, only the weaving craftsmen of the highest
merit and skill were able to tame the looms that created this tough 21 ounce
denim. The average weight for these antique looms is 13 ounces, 15 ounces is
manageable, 17 ounces is pushing it, 19 ounces and the machines are under
pressure, 21 ounces is well.......

While the resistance created noise at levels almost intolerable, the weavers had
to basically train the machines to handle the heavyweight threads attacking and
passing through them. Great hardships and pain were endured to successfully
weave the  "Cloth of Super Excellence". Had they not the skills nor patience to
control these power looms we may never have the chance to experience this
truly unique denim created by these truly unique craftsmen. Their blood, sweat,
and soul is symbolized by the Red and Gold lame strands which make up the
Relaxed Fit XX21oz selvage.

The silhouette is that of the Samurai relaxed fit S0510XX. Available sizes are
28-40 except 37 and 39.

Alternating heavyweight #6 threads of Banana Yellow and Golden Brown are
sewn with vintage sewing techniques throughout. Extra heavy #0 threads are
used at the seams and points of stress while chain stitching is applied at the
center and yoke seams as well as inner and outer seams for added durability.

The patch depicts samurai warriors much heftier than usual due to the heavy
weight of the 21 ounce denim. Front pocket bags have an original Jacquard
pattern interwoven with thin beige threads which reads "Shogyo Mujo" or "All
Things Change".

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 consideration when choosing your size. Here is a visual guide to how we measure our jeans.

Note: The waist measures 1" smaller than posted measurements.
For example size 30 measures 31" pre-wash and will shrink to 29" with washing so please keep this in mind when placing your order.

If a size is not listed below, that size is sold out.
