Cerita - Samurai


Founded in 1997, Osaka-based Samurai Jeans has already managed to establish itself as an unwashed selvage denim producer for connoisseurs. Their collection exists of various models of unwashed denim. Most of the cuts are based on the traditional workwear. They are in extremely high quality and are often sold in limited editions.

Samurai is a Japanese company that provides the finest denim in the world. Its standard cut is at 15 oz per sq meter. However, they have now gone all the way up to 24. The higher the oz, the more stress the jeans are under on the loom. 15 oz itself is considered extremely hard. Whereas, 24 oz is near impossible. The leather patch depicts an image of the famous duel between Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojirō in 1612 on a remote island in Japan. Musashi was the victor and is said to be the most skilled swordsman in history. He is also well-known for his writing of Go Rin No Sho or "Book of Five Rings". This is the image commonly found on most Samurai models. Most versions also include a full moon silhouette and Lot# 10, this number changes every year and has now come to Samurai's 10th production year. As a raw denim brand, Samurai jeans take months or years to get broken into champions. Samurai Jeans fade exceedingly well, giving a contrast between the dark hand-dyed indigo and bright white cotton that is impossible to achieve with mass-produced jeans. Nevertheless, Samurai's are known for the finest fading result worldwide.
 Contoh Samurai Model "Zero" - model 'A' tegak.

  
Contoh design back pocket.
 

Contoh Pai. Kalau diperhatikan betul-betul gambar-gambar di pai tu ada sedikit kelainan mengikut model dan tahun keluaran. Contoh paling ketara adalah kedudukan bulan, pedang, burung dan stance bertarung. Kalau mampu boleh kumpul semua, kalau tak mampu tengok gambar dah la...

Contoh redtab model 'A' tegak.


Contoh redtab model 'A' terbalik. Ada yang beritahu bahawa 'A' terbalik lebih rare. Tak tau la betul ke tak kena tanya yang lebih arif. Kalau nak bandingkan harga lebih kurang sama je. Ada lagi beberapa cerita pasai design pai samurai ni tapi belum ada peluang nak compile semua. Bozzo masih belum berpeluang nak memiliki Samurai nih sebab memang terlalu susah nak cari saiz 40 ke atas. Kena diet baru bleh pakai.
