    I noticed the shirt change. You definitely have a soft spot for Samurai. As do I. I still havent gone to 25oz as of yet. It has to be the right pair and I want to slim down a bit first before getting a pair.

    Great video, I've only gone as high as 19oz so far. I did look at a pair of IH 25oz earlier this yr. So far I've resisted, after this maybe next Yr will be right.

    Iron heart is my preference here simply because of the classic color combo that just pops and is fading beautifully .I’ve never had anything heavier than 15oz and even though in theory , I’d love to try a 25 oz pair , the climate here in Cape Town is simply not conducive to wearing heavy garments unfortunately,even now in our winter . Speedmaster looks great on your wrist and I’m still contemplating on getting one - not convinced yet on which way to go current reference or a vintage 321 movement one. Thanks for the great content .

    I bought a pair of limited edition 25oz Samurai’s for Y4 because I loved the experience of my 25oz Iron Hearts. It’ll be really interesting to see the comparison! I’m going to get the Samurai’s hemmed and resized because the straight cut is just way too baggy. I know, blasphemy! But I just loved the slim straight cut of the 633!

    The weight is the same. But Iron Heart is a tighter weave and Samurai is a looser weave. 👊👊👊

    weight is based on a certain square measurement of fabric, weave is based on the amount of tension applied to the fibers in the process of making the fabric and at what points in the process it is applied

    I would choose any time Samurai Jeans. They are the much more quality jeans in general. SJ have their own history. And because they are much more hard to get, they are More special. IH are way to expansive. They are one of the new school denim. The y also have Stores all over the world. It’s like commercial clothings. I would always choose Samurai jeans

    Bravestar won the fade competition last year if I’m not mistaken. Pants were worn by a blacksmith for a full year. The character overall was amazing. I think it was a well-deserved win by someone who actually “worked” a blue collar job. I’d love to hear Fjorde’s take
