Stiff at first, this formidable denim soon softens and shapes to the wearer’s body. Featuring a mid rise, a slim fit, and a gentle taper, this straight leg denim offers a classic fit replete with Samurai’s typically elevated design flourishes. From heavily textured, 19oz denim to the silver lamé selvedge ID, everything about these jeans is designed to make an immediate and lasting impression.
