Pure Blue Japan

Recommended Posts

Well, the 011 and 013 are the same cut, so we know how they fit from panda's pics...

They're up on the website under the label "Blue in Green" - once on the online shop/product pages look to your left and its there, kinda hard to miss. But yeah, its the 011 cut, with 005 denim, and switched up details - the leaf is red, white, and blue, pure blue japan on the patch is replaced by blue in green, and riveting and slight details have changed.

jus relax man it doesn't even matter because these jeans will stretch out a lot in the waist and thigh area after a couple of wears

also the jeans will shrink to the tagged size and not from it

and if you aren't satisfied with the leg opening post soak you can still get them tapered

No, the thing is my true waist size is 29. If I get a 28, and hot soak, the leg opening would shrink too small for my liking. I like my leg openings to be at least 7.5. Or should I just do a cold soak instead of hot? Which size should I order either way, 29?

OR last resort, just get one-wash and save me the headache. Does the One-Washes still shrink if I hot soak them?

the one washes wont shrink anymore. I dont really understand why people hate getting the one washes so much, unless you want to control how you soak them it doesnt change that much. I plan on getting one washes next time and just save myself the trouble to trying to figure out how much is going to shrink where haha

^panda, a few pages back ;)
^ Panda has the 011's not the 013's. ;)

I like the xx-011s more than the xx-013s. Gordon had emailed me about them...but I think the leaf is too much...and it's a bit unnecessary to change the entire tag to say BiG...

...but I'm a OCD purist, I do hope some of you guys get the xx-013, we could compare evo of the lht grey weft versus the xx-005 fading in a slim cut, haha.

I saw the 013 jeans in person today - they really look great. The denim does look slightly different from the 005 in that they look slightly less slubby, a bit more smooth of a weave. The details don't look too loud at all in person. Also, the cut is apparently not the same as 011. He (Excuse me for forgetting his name, the japanese guy who is usually in the store) said that they do have a bit of a taper, but that they're not as tapered as the 011. I guess we'll see.

You know what, im stupid.

Theres a list on the first page, which I did actually check for, but I guess i mis-clicked to a different page because OP is definitely not what I saw when I meant to click first.

Thanks though.

From what I can tell the new BiG PBJ's are the new slimmest?

11s are 007 fit but more tapered leg/leg opening. 13, would be like the 11s, slim tapered. We will know about the measurements when they actually post them on the website!

And from what I can tell then,

the 007 and 010 are the same

and 008 actually is slightly less slim ten both 007 and 010,

which confuses me beacause 007 is "Super slim straight" and 008 is just "super slim", yet 010 is just "slim straight" when its the same as 007

      Cleaning out my closet for stuff I don't get to wear as often!  Willing to accept offers.
      1. Himel Bros. Brimaco Raider Cafe Racer - $1750 plus shipping
      This jacket is absolutely insane. Tagged size 36, fits like S. Made with 100% genuine Shinki tea-core horsehide that will gradually fade from deep black to a gorgeous brown as it ages. Weighs in at around 5 pounds and is built to take an absolute beating. Deadstock Lightning zippers, bi-swing back, and of course the absolutely unparalleled quality that David Himel is known for. If you know leather jackets, then you'll know that this is the creme de la creme. Retails for $2450.
      Worn lightly and still has plenty of breaking in left to do. It's a shame that I have to sell this as it's just slightly too small for me. Would totally be interested in trading for another leather jacket of similar quality in a larger size.
      Description from Himel's website: 
      "The Raider jacket is an homage to one of the greatest café racer jackets ever made. Brimaco or British Mfg. Co of Montreal, Canada designed this iconic jacket in the 1950's after attending motorcycle races on the Isle of Man. The jacket has a distinctive British feel with a longer straighter torso and a simple clean back with bi-swing expansion gussets and a long chinstrap. We own so many originals of this great design that it barely required any tweaking, and this model uses our limited supply of original 1950's and 1960's Lightning zippers."
      MEASUREMENTS: 
      P2P: 20" 
      Shoulders: 17" 
      Sleeve: 24.5" 
      Back length: 26.5" 
      Front length: 24"

      2. The Real McCoy's M-422A Flight Jacket - $1150 plus shipping
      https://dfqickngpn7t8.cloudfront.net/AJdAgnqCST4iPtnUxiGtTz/cache=expiry:max/rotate=deg:exif/rotate=deg:0/resize=width:1100,fit:crop/output=format:jpg,quality:95/compress/mcslLUs7SuOKnR9V2Rdf[/img]
      Absolutely stunning M-422A flight jacket from The Real McCoy's New Zealand. If you know The Real McCoy's, then you'll know that everything they make is of the highest standards, from the material to the construction. This jacket is made with the finest goatskin and mouton fur and is built just impeccably. Faithful to the original details, but superiorly made.
      Measurements: 
      P2P: 21" 
      Shoulder: 17" 
      Sleeve: 24.75" 
      Length: 25.75"
      3. Needles/Nepenthes (Engineered Garments) Horween Shell Engineer Boots, resoled by Brian the Bootmaker - $1500 plus shipping
      https://dfqickngpn7t8.cloudfront.net/AJdAgnqCST4iPtnUxiGtTz/cache=expiry:max/rotate=deg:exif/rotate=deg:0/resize=width:1100/output=format:jpg,quality:95/compress/ePB7rWcfRrKeG75LT7SO[/img]
      Needles (Engineered Garments) Engineer Boots made with genuine Color No. 8 Horween Shell Cordovan in tag size 9UK. I'd say they fit pretty TTS, although there is plenty of room for one to wear thicker socks.
      These were picked up from the Nepenthes shop located in New York City. Needles is the sister company of Engineered Garments (both owned by Nepenthes). This pair has also been re-soled by Brian the Bootmaker (Role Club) and converted to his signature hand-welt. They're really fresh too - worn under 10 times. Truly an amazing pair of boots. Shell cordovan engineer boots are pretty hard to come by, especially ones made with Horween (most other shell engineer boots are made with Shinki cordovan).
      4. The Flat Head 6002W Type II Jacket - $350 plus shipping
      https://dfqickngpn7t8.cloudfront.net/AJdAgnqCST4iPtnUxiGtTz/cache=expiry:max/rotate=deg:exif/rotate=deg:90/resize=width:1100,fit:crop/output=format:jpg,quality:95/compress/RINrxGgSFazJbCpUp1cI[/img]
      Classic Type II jacket by The Flat Head in their Pioneer denim. Gently worn, practically new. Retails for over $500 at Self Edge.

      Front Length: 24.5 
      Arm Length: 34

      Pit to pit: 20.5

      Pretty sweet Type I jacket by Evisu. Sick details all over, well worn and faded.

      Worn a handful of times, not really my style. No damage and in excellent condition. Fits excellent as either TTS or slightly tight as it's a slim fit with a hint of stretch due to the waffles knit pattern, though it's 100% cotton. Shirt is sold out in this size last I checked.
      Beautiful indigo dyed waffle fabric that we think will age amazingly 
      Black cat's-eye buttons 
      Chain stitch run-off 
      Triple needle-stitch construction using self coloured needle and red bobbin threads 
      All felled seam construction 
      Rinsed, so there should be no appreciable shrinkage 
      Model Sam wears a Medium, Giles wears X-Large in this shirt (rather than his normal Large)

      Shoulders    17.2 
      Length 27.8

    • By Danny @ Rivet & Hide
      Hey all,

      Welcome to Rivet & Hide. We are a London based premium raw denim store starting life online with plans afoot for a bricks and mortar home in the future.

      We offer free shipping worldwide and our UPS account will ensure a fast and reliable delivery around the world.

      I have been a SuFu member for years sharing thoughts, ideas and countless questions about denim and clothes that are made with heart and soul. This inspired me to set up and finally bring Rivet & Hide to life.

      Some of the brands will be familiar to you but part of the concept is to bring new and less well known denim producers into the sphere and we have worked hard to get that balance right.

      It has been a lot of fun meeting many of the people behind the brands and seeing their skills at work. We have clocked up many miles visiting them around the world making new friends along the way. A shorter trip through the Welsh valleys to beautiful Cardigan Bay to meet the Hiut Denim guys was just as rewarding. A special thanks for all the help and support from Giles & Paula at Ironheart UK and Anders Helseth of Steel Feather.

      We struck gold with a Union Special 43200g which was sourced from California. It’s in mint condition and dates back to 1950. Any hemming requirements can be consummately fulfilled.

      We have measured all our stock individually. We have not relied on suppliers or anyone else’s measurements. Our HOW WE MEASURE guide is based on BiG (thank you) with the addition of a hip measurement.

      We offer a 28 day returns policy with full refunds. Shipping included.

      The launch brands are:

      Railcar Fine Goods
      Steel Feather
      Flat Head
      Real Japan Blues
      Hiut denim co
      Nudie jeans
      Obbi Good Label.

      As we go into the Autumn we will be adding to our launch stock including some more great shirts from The Flat Head’s Winter collection, and introducing you to a new Japanese brand.

      We are planning a launch party hosted by our friends at Kaffeine, Great Titchfield Street, in Central London in the Autumn and will give you the heads up closer to the time. You will be more than welcome to join us.

      Feel free to ask any questions here or contact us at [email protected] or [email protected]

      Waist -- 15" Inseam -- 35" Thigh -- 11.25" Knee -- 7.75" Leg opening -- 7.5" Front rise -- 10"   info and specs from Rivet and Hide: Our first collaboration with Pure Blue Japan combines the ever popular slim tapered fit with a substantial 24 oz. version of the X011 jean with a pale grey weft.
