chapstick in left, wallet in right

nice fibers

LOL my gf also has chapstick fades. shit needs it own thread. lovely pbjs btw

[Akira]

Is it just me or does the fading on the 007s and 010s in this picture look pretty similar to any other pbj denim?

IIRC the jeans are indigo over purple and it's the indigo threads that are fading so unless they rip or you cuff, the purple won't show that much (although they do have a purple hue to them)

hey guys im thinking about getting a pair of Pure Blue Japan Jeans - XX-010 Raw or xx007 , and i am just wondering how the fit is compared to flathead 3001? Do the 007 and 010 fit the same? Do the xx-010 stretch a lot? I have the flathead 3001 in size 28 and there pretty tight. What size should i get the pbj in? Thanks!

I have a pair of 007's (bought OW) in 29 and F310's in 29 were way to small. My PBJ's stretched a shitload but that might because I gained weight while I was wearing them. Measure to about a 32 or 33 now.

[durdentk]

was it the waist that was to tight on the flatheads? Are the legs as slim as the flatheads as well? thanks again

[Quills]

As I remember the legs aren't as slim, but I've had mine tapered so they fit differently now.

007s

So I'm finally posting updated pics of my jeans.

Here they are at around 9 months.

Side by side with my friend's Samurais:

looking good.

i just brought away my 007s to get them tapered, the feeling of having slightly bootcut jeans just wasn't doing it for me. i now pray to the god of denim that my tailor won't fuck it up. i explicitly stated he should not use the selvage, but he was all like 'huwhat why not'. so please, tailor, please, please, don't fuck this up for me.

The 010, 005, and 007 all fit the same.

I did a good thing today.

I gave my xx-005s to my little brother.

He needs to get them altered though...

Anyone here pass down their jeans to a younger sibling?

Still trying to convince my brother to try raw denim... although that's probably skipping a few steps. I should try to get him out of the terrible fit waffle sweaters first.

[premiumsqueezed]

my 005s for almost 4 months (tomorrow would have been 4 months)

fit pic.

I'm not sure whether or not to soak it. Thoughts?

[soulsoi]

if you want them to shrink then go for it.

doesnt hurt to soak. mines are at 4 months also and theyve gone through 5 soaks

I has give little brother Eternal 811's with only a couple months of wear.

I give has big father brand new Oni Red's.

Little bro bro has a MEGA CUFF. And in middle school kids SUPER FUCK you if you have cuffed jeans. Needless to say he has it rough. Ha ha!

[Hendodo]

LOL i gave my little bro some stf's. thats about all i can manage rite now :/

[gonegonegone]

did you guys know there is an article about pbj on wikipedia?

[Florian.FloC]

Are there any more recent photos of the 010s coming?

[rockon99]

Have you guys gone over how much pbjs stretch?

i dont know what waist size to get because i dont know what it'll stretch out to be. i dont want it falling off my hips. general consensus says go true to size as far as i know, but would'nt they stretch past that after a while of wearing?

PBJs stretch like hell.

My pair stretched about 2 in the waist, and about one in the thigh...

But I also biked for two straight months in them.

But yeah, they stretched a LOT.

[crissyw]

even my PBJ's stretched like a bitch..

When I first bought them, I could BARELY get them on the hips and thighs. Now, they're looser than I'd like.. probably 2-3 inches in the waist and 1-2 in the thighs.

[rockon99]

hahh so basically like apc or something. i'm gonna be buying some 007s within the next week most likely. so i want to make sure everything is perfect haha

PBJ 010 Update.. worn on and off, totaly maybe 2 months of wear.

Very difficult to capture the color because the shades varies alot, so I just tried to make as accurate adjustment as possible.

[Our_Benefactors]

I'm definitely getting 010's for my next pair (this is planning way in advance, I just got my SeXDb contest jeans). The purple gives me a total hardon.

[Vanquish Gold]

They fade to light blue then to White... pure white... very strange... maybe its because of the contrast from the weft.

[stapleclip01]

hey guys i had a question. im interested in the pbj 005 raw but i dont know what size. read some things about pbj stretching like crazy in the thread. im like a 31-32 true waist and i want a nice slim fit. what size do you guys think i should get? i dont want them getting too loose on me.

[soulsoi]

yuppp

waist, thighs and knees stretch a good amount so

i tihnk you should size down one

and if your not sure go to BiG's website and look at the measurements for one wash if your planning to soak them

[rockon99]

yeah i'm kinda in the same boat. my questions have already been mostly answered but i'm about a 35in waist. and want as regular a fit as i can get out of the slim 007s. so, true to size? or down one.

[bernielike]

PBJ shirts are dope too -- BiG has some amazingly constructed, yet super soft work shirts in hickory stripe and a kind of gigham check. Beautiful stuff. Run off triple chain stitches on the ends. Sweet.

Anyone have pics?
