Samurai Jeans S5100VX 17oz ZERO Plus Bushido Denim | straight
Samurai S5100VX Zero+ is a statement piece in the world of heavyweight Japanese denim, an evolution of Samurai’s iconic “Zero” series (ゼロシリーズ) built for purists who crave bold texture, raw character, and a fit rooted in classic Americana.
Crafted from Samurai’s signature 17oz Zero+ unsanforized selvedge, a low-tension, slubby kotai (hard) weave, the fabric embodies the spirit of bushidō craftsmanship. The yarns are rope-dyed to a deep, inky indigo using natural irregularity, giving the denim its unmistakable crisp hand and the high-contrast fading (honeycombs, whiskers, and tate-ochi) collectors chase.
Built on the timeless 5100 block, the silhouette leans into a traditional straight fit: a confident rise, a strong thigh, and a clean line all the way through the hem. Heavy stitching, copper rivets, and Samurai’s signature silver lamé selvedge ID complete the package, paying homage to the katana steel that inspires the brand.
This is denim meant to be worn hard, molded by time, and shaped by your life. A modern classic with deep roots in Japanese craftsmanship.
