Description

The Samurai S211XX17OZ Murakumo Sky Indigo is a Relaxed Tapered fit with a medium rise, featuring a roomy seat and thigh, 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 Murakumo denim represents the sky and clouds in a lower tension fabric with a rope-dyed pure light blue indigo warp and white weft, using thick and twisted #6 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 an indigo blue and silver lamé woven selvedge line, a commemorative embossed natural undyed cowhide leather patch, heavy-duty woven jacquard pocket bags, a decorative Taiko 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.
