Ok thanks a lot for the quick answers. I'll ask if they are getting a restock, otherwise I'll just grab them online. Liked the idea of helping out a local store though.

ahhh Bobbo I'd say you're right!

But now I have another problem. I was trying on the 31s, and I was hoping they would shrink a little in the thighs and knees (they didn't have a 30). When they say 'one wash', is that a machine wash, or just a soak? How much can I expect them to shrink after a 2nd wash?

thanks again guys.

Hey guys,

I've been wanting to buy a pair of 107's for a while now, but am just wanting some information on how much they will shrink. 

I can either buy a pair from my local store with an inseam of 33-34 inches, or I can buy the ones that Blue Owl specially do in a 36 inseam.

Basically, the 33-34 inch inseam fits really well. Though I fear that they will shrink quite a bit with washing.

Is there a way that I can wash them with minimal loss to the inseam length? I was thinking just a cold soak in a bathtub and then stretch the length out when they're wet. Will this work well? Only really looking to soften them up so they don't eventually blow out.

Any information would be much appreciated.

Thanks guys.

need these in a 9/9.5

If you are looking for something baggier, the XX-011 and XX-013 (or XX-012, XX-017, XX-018 and whatever other PBJ jean features the same fit) aren't going to work. Even the slim straight (XX-007 and others) are quite slim. I would go for something roomier, XX-009, XX-003. You might even consider getting jeans from another brand.

 

Momotaro for instance, has a great cut, with a taper from knee down, the 0201. It's a quite generous cut, when sized TTS, downsized it's a flattering slim(mer) fit.

They are basically the same fit.

The grey weft will just yield slightly different fade contrasts to the standard white weft. (Weft being the horizontal cross thread of the weave) The X11 is a left hand twill. This denim stretches back out to its raw measurements after an initial soak. 

 

The X11 has a very deep indigo hue with clear vertical streaking. Although it is slubby it has a smoother feel to the X13 which is made from the PBJ signature 14 oz denim. 

What Danny said. The fits are quite similar but in my experience the xx-013 measure slightly smaller in the same size as the xx-011. The 11s also stretch a bit more so I was able to size down to a 33 while going true to size 34 for the 13s. But if you're looking for a baggier fit I'm not sure either of these are what you're looking for since they are both quite slim. Much slimmer than the Edwin relaxed tapered jeans.

am astounded at how quickly everyone replied to this one. denim forums sure have a lot less flaming than sneaker forums. so for that, I am very appreciative.

From what I've read, i'm thinking I will go toward the xx-013's. I know you guys said that they would be too slim but I only meant that I wanted them a little bit baggier than he ed-55's.

I bought my Edwin's in a size 28 (size or possibly 2 sizes small), so I figure that's why they are so slim on me. Only really wanted more accentuated stacks. This is basically the look i'm after- http://www.okayamadenim.com/collections/pure-blue-japan/products/xx-011 I know those are 11's but I figure it'll be very similar if not the same.

I guess all I need to know now is whether I want a 29 or 30. Anyone know how the xx-013's fit size wise?

thanks again guys

hey guys, hoping a pbj denim head can help me with a bit of a dilemma.
I was wanting to grab a pair of the pbj xx-011 raw denim, but a guy from the store reckons they are all out of my size so has offered me the xx-013 as he reckons they are now the exact same cut.
A main difference between the two is that the xx-011 has left hand grey weft fabric, as opposed to indigo fabric (xx-013). Could someone explain the differences of the two to me?

Am just under 6 foot and am currently wearing Edwin ed-55 relaxed tapered raw denim, which I haven't ever washed since I bought over a year ago and have held up really nicely. Am looking for something slightly baggier with a taper so I can wear with sneakers, whilst minimizing washing to hold that indigo colour.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks all
