Description

The Samurai S211VX Bushido Benkei Indigo is a Relaxed Tapered fit with a medium rise, featuring a roomy seat and thigh with a strongly tapered leg and a narrow hem. This jean is crafted from factory-washed and sun-dried unsanforized 17 oz. Japanese Selvedge Denim produced exclusively for Samurai on vintage shuttle looms that operate at extremely low speeds and require hand operation. This method results in a lower tension fabric with a pure indigo rope-dyed warp and white weft, using thick and twisted #5 slub yarns that have a rough texture reminiscent of denim from yesteryear, with irregularities that will soften quickly, developing a structured drape and vintage fade patterns. Designed in Samurai's Relaxed Tapered silhouette, this modern cut fits comfortably in the seat and accommodates thicker thighs while tapering to a narrower hem, forming a personalized fit that conforms to the body. Assembled with specialty Samurai warrior iconography throughout, including a silver and red lamé woven selvedge line, a commemorative embossed natural undyed cowhide leather patch, heavy-duty woven jacquard pocket bags, a decorative pine nut iron cast button fly, embossed copper riveting, and hidden back rivets, this jean is constructed with a chainstitched waist, seat, and hem, with bartack reinforcements throughout. Representing one of the most collectible Japanese producers that continues to innovate through intensive old-world techniques, these Samurai jeans celebrate exclusive material developments, precise craftsmanship, and thoughtful design in every element, creating a unity of garment and wearer.
