Once again, Samurai presents its annual model, this time dedicated to the Year of the Dragon for 2024. For this edition, they have used their iconic Kiwami fabric and adorned this pair of jeans with numerous details, such as the same dragon-patterned pocket lining fabric featured in their Dragon Hawaiian Shirt, iron-made gold Taiko buttons, and green stitching referencing the dragon's scales.

The denim used is their heavyweight 21oz Kiwami fabric, meticulously woven on a vintage wooden shuttle loom, utilizing a blend of US and Australian cotton. The yarn is a unique #4.5 x #4.5 original slubby yarn, adding texture and character to the fabric. Only the most skilled and accomplished weaving craftsmen were able to tame the looms that created this durable denim, weighing over 20 ounces. The dedication and expertise of these craftsmen are symbolized by the strands of red and gold lamé running along the selvedge line of this exceptional 21oz denim masterpiece.

These jeans feature a classic and comfortable regular straight cut, designed to provide a timeless fit for individuals of all styles. With a mid-rise waist, they offer a balanced silhouette that effortlessly combines fashion and functionality. 

As with many other Samurai Jeans, this limited edition runs slightly small in the one-wash version. In general, we recommend choosing one size larger than your usual. However, as always, we suggest checking the size chart first to find your perfect fit. It is unsanforized but one-washed, so there will be no further shrinkage.

Samurai jeans have achieved legendary status in the Japanese denim scene. Founded by Toru Nogami in Osaka in 1997, Samurai represents the epitome of Japanese tradition, showcasing the iconography of Sengoku-era Samurais and a relentless pursuit of excellence through the use of premium materials, artisanal garment-making techniques, and unique embellishments.
