Japan’s Samurai brand pays homage to denim’s cowboy origins with their left-hand twill “Bushido” denim. First popularized by Texan denim pioneers Lee, left-hand twill denim is celebrated for its softer feel and slightly fuzzy texture. Samurai’s homage is woven at low tension using special #5 slub yarns, resulting in a uniquely slubby surface texture. The S140VXJ is cut to a high-rise, relaxed tapered fit, offering generous room at the top with a flattering taper from the knee down. These jeans are finished with a leather patch featuring the legendary one-eyed samurai, Yagyū Jūbē Mitsuyoshi.
