007

Wearing it pretty seldom now, slubbiness of the fabric still feels amazing!

Nice! How long have you worn them for? Washes? Soaks? Upload more pics!

Wore it regularly for a year.

4-5 washes and 3 soaks if I remember it right...

You can search back on this thread for the full pics, not much has changed since.

You get a "file no avalible" image on your old posts, just saying.

Interesting...def its still up...

Here is a re-post:

So much slub

[kenzie]

almost a year, threw them in the washing machine last week

[denim4dayss]

a little over a year of wear

need to get them repaired

[Cold Summer]

Those 11s look great Kenzie. I've seen pairs with greater contrast, but I think I like the colors on yours the most.

[kenzie]

thanks mate. they used to be more contrasted in the top block, but I wound up washing them four or five times over the course of the year and the denim got really soft around the nine month mark, so most of the contrast has faded out by now.

Some of the coolest PBJ fades I have ever seen on this page

Has anyone seen a 017 model? Apparently it's indigo x blue model? Recently came across a pair.

[bestie]

Saw them at blue in green last week...

Too odd for me.

What is the fit of the PBJ017 related to in terms of the rest of the PBJ lineup?

According to BiG, like the xx013.

The 017 model must be very new since I can't find many pictures online at all yet. Anyone snap some up when they visited BiG?

Find the colour really weird.

[bestie]

The xx-17 is a slim- tapered fit just like xx-13. The weft is a baby/sky blue color. Electric blue fadez?

Personally I can't get down with a baby blue weft. To each their own.

I'll be stopping by BiG in the next week or two to say thanks for their help with my purchase last week. I'll take pics if they're wanted. I feel like the xx-17s have been posted here but maybe I'm wrong. I can post pics of both soon.

[cander49]

They're not really expected to have electric blue fades, are they? I mean, the purple weft pairs don't produce purple fades.

[Cold Summer]

I saw a picture of a faded pair somewhere on the PBJ website, and they looked really nice, with a very natural (yet slightly different) fade. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I saw that and can't find the picture again.

[jonmhenderson]

Less than a month in.

[kenzie]

considering how much I like the fit of my 11s, I might want to try a pair of the 17s. unfortunately, I've already begun working on a pair of Strike Gold denim, and my 11s are far from dead. we'll see.

not sure if this is what coldsummer found, but pbj has some pictures of some pre-distressed 17s. vaguely reminds me of the 7s.

Alright boys and girls, here's some more of that xx-007 slub.

Details:1 year. 1 initial soak. 0 washes.

Sizing: Size 29, ~tts. I've gained weight though so they got tight a bit.

so much slub to lub

[bd604]

@Ghoul: i fucking love Five Guys

[Ghoul]

Lets be real with each other, have a moment if you will...Who doesn't fucking love 5 guys?

[Cold Summer]

Very nice 007s there.

Kenzie, I must've been thinking of the pre-distressed model in the second link. If it's any indication, the regular 017s/018s ought to fade very nicely.

[RocktheRobot]

Here's a picture I took in the PBJ-store in Harajuku a couple of months ago. Bad quality, but still, better than nothing.

I've read through the thread, but want to check one last time here about average PBJ stretch. Thinking about pulling the trigger on XX-009'S. it seems like people in the thread say they do stretch a good bit? Was going to go TTS as it looks like they are all around a bit larger in all areas than my Eternal 811's in the same size which i enjoy the fit of but would like something slightly looser.

Thanks,

[LckyChrmsBBoy]

those 017s look pretty good

It's a little weird, the fabric was originally used by Strike Gold last year.

Here's a sample i was wearing a year ago:
