Samurai Jeans - New and Recent Items

Been real busy here as usual but finally getting a chance to post some of the new products we've received lately. We're working to get everything uploaded to the webstore as quickly as we can though it's a tiny operation we got here but we like it that way, it just takes us a little time to get to everything so we do appreciate everyone's patience as we do so.

Now on to the new and recent items from Samurai which includes their Heavy Weight Long Sleeve T's featuring a triple-needle stitched collar band and using Samurai's original #14 gauge knit fabric produced on vintage Japanese circular knit machines;



 

The limited edition S003JP17oz-L Yamato Series jeans which are a heavier weight left-hand twill version of their slimmest fitting S003JP silhouette. As with all of the jeans in Samurai's Yamato series they're made of selvage denim using cotton which has been spun in Matsusaka city (famous for cotton spinning for over 500 years), Japanese Wagyu Leather patch, Indigo dyed Jacquard pocket lining, and Pure Silver stitch detail accents; 

 
 
 
 



An Indigo Dyed Wabash Hunting Cap with Samurai's original wabash discharge print design, adjustable straps, and lined with their original jacquard pocket lining;
 

And the recently released limited edition  S5000AI24oz Straight Leg Jeans made of Samurai's original 24oz Hand Dyed Natural Indigo selvage denim. Not too many special details on these aside from the Gold tack buttons but, hand dyed 24oz natural indigo denim (first time ever attempted?) woven on vintage Japanese wooden shuttle looms (which only Samurai does?), seems deserving of such subtle detailing.

 





  

These and all of our Samurai items are available in store and online here

Warehouse - New Indigo Rope Dyed and Basic Color Short Sleeve Heavyweight T-shirts

New in from Warehouse we have five Heavyweight Pocket T-shirts. The first is an Indigo Rope Dyed version in which the cotton yarns are indigo dyed prior to weaving instead of the more common and less costly method of piece dyeing a white t-shirt in indigo dye. Followed by four basic color versions including Heather Grey, Black, Navy, and Off White. The basic styles feature a Binder-style neck rib, Rectangle shape chest pocket, and Tubular knit weave body using a heavy gauge slub yarn for a more uneven texture. All tees are 100% cotton, Made in Japan, and available here

The Real McCoy's Chippewa® Horsehide Engineer Boots

In addition to the other new items from Real McCoy's we also received a very special edition Chippewa Horsehide Engineer Boot made for The Real McCoy's by Chippewa Boots® who, aside from having a 110 year history of producing handcrafted boots here in the USA, is also the company credited with creating the Engineer Boot by combining a stovepipe leg shaft over an English Riding boot last. The original Engineer Boots were made of horsehide leather however Chippewa no longer offers horsehide in their regular line-up so to make these boots special they're made with Genuine Horween® Horsehide Leather from the Horween Leather Co, also a company with a 100+ year old history and one of the oldest continuously running tanneries in the United States. All of this, combined with Real McCoy's supplied buckles and hardware and dead-stock Bilrite Neoprene Cork soles, make these one of - if not the - most unique Engineer Boots you can find, anywhere. Also available up to size 10.5 which is seldom seen from our Japanese manufacturers. The Real McCoy's Chippewa® Horsehide Engineer Boots are available exclusively outside of Asia at Blue in Green, in store and online here
