does the xx-013 fade as fast as the xx-011?

[kchuk]

cander those are sick

[cander49]

I'm not ready to give up on my 11's, but this happened over the weekend

Stitch it back down! Both of my pockets looked like this on my 13s after about 7 months, but they're still fine almost 5 months later thanks to timely repairs. That denim looks absolutely fantastic close-up btw. Do you have any recent full pics?

How much will the leg opening shrink on the 24-005s?

I can't give you the exact measurements but the 24oz models generally shrink about 7-8%.

At 13 months, I'd say I was due for something to give.

After repairs:

And some fit pics I just took. I don't think I've posted a fit since I got them...

im about to buy a pair of pbjs. i want the xx-011 but all they have left is the sz 28 raw and 28 o/w (the only options that are close to my measurements). My waist size is 30, front rise is 10.5, knee is 7.2, back rise is 12, leg opening is 6.25, inseam 33, and leg opening is 6.25. If i was to buy the raw one should i soak it with medium warm water to avoid some shrinkage or should i hot soak it while i wear it in the tub

threw my 005bk o/w's in for a hand wash last night, the second one in 9+ months. Should be dried when I get home from work tonight, so I'll post some pics then...but for now...

Hey you guys, I'm working on a pair of N&F Weird Guys right now, and I've already decided that I want my next pair of jeans to be PBJ XX-007s. Should I buy now and just store them away? Or wait? Does PBJ plan on stopping production of them any time soon or something?

[anklspr]

^ You should just buy 'em now. It's always funner that way + you can post pics.

[tvshooter]

the 007's are one of PBJ's most popular models. can't imagine production would stop anytime soon.

[emu og]

How do the new 018's fade? They're basically the 013, but with a cobalt weft, correct?

[movingslow]

the 018s are the same cut as the 005 according to BIG. the 017's are the same cut as the 013s. and yes the only difference is the cobalt weft. haven't seen much on fades because they are so new.

[willrh1]

Anybody know if the xx-011 will be restocked at blue in green sometime soon?

[S-Town]

^

I bet I know who you should contact with that question.

[sanddaayy]

anyone happen to know how their 1069 and 1069-2s fit in comparison from personal experience? How would the 11/13s fit on a girl? I'm 5'1 at 98lbs for reference!

My tts is 29. I normally wear a sz 29 Samurai S003jp-17oz-l and I'm about to pick up the 24oz-005s. I was wondering what the general consensus is on sizing? I have read that normal 005s and 007s, people usually size down 1, maybe 2 to account for the stretching but I haven't really read anything on the 24oz. I plan on getting the raw version. so 24oz guys, tts or size down 1? I am a pretty skinny dude.

Also, has anyone ordered from AND-Japan on Rakuten? How are they?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

no idea about the sizing but ordering from AND-Japan is more than perfect!

[movingslow]

go tts.... or just look at the measurements and figure out what thigh measurement is going to suite you best. Ive ordered from and-japan and everything went perfect, even got them much sooner than I thought I would.

These are the pre distressed "3d" 018s. Fading will be among these lines. pics are from DC4

[Mild7]

@ajibbb, very nice indeed. Out of rep.

[beardown]

^ thanks guys. i've been looking at the measurements from big and from the pbj.jp site and looks like i can size down 1 to a 28 since i have pretty skinny thighs. i'm a little nervous about the waist though. how much stretch happens with that 24oz? anyone else size down on the 24oz?

@ajibbb holy shit!! please tell if you went tts or sized down. and maybe some fit pics

[davidC]

i was looking all over my pair of PBJ's. Couldn't find a model number. I bought mine 2 years ago from BIG and I can't remember the model. Any signs or markings to tell or a model number somewhere and I'm jsut blind?

[t0ne]

just received my size 30 raw xx-013 currently in the tub being hot soaked

ill post fit pics when it dries

[Mild7]

And some 010's are on the way for me too
