Pure Blue Japan

Wow those are amazing for 3 months...I don't think my pair is that faded and I've worn them for 6 months...

How'd you keep the leaf in such good condition?

[dfaus]

Those are looking real good for 3 months. I hope I can get the same amount of fading on my 007s in that amount of time.

Yeah i wanna know this too, i'm 2 months in on my 007's and the leaf is already breaking hahah

[Althis]

damn the denim around your hidden rivets is holding up really well, im only at like a month and its already more frayed than that

[Florian.FloC]

these were worn very low, and, as a result, I didn't end up sitting on the leaf a lot...as for the crotch, these are no longer being worn (they're far too small), so that's not an issue

Never seen or bought of pair of jeans from this company. But speaking from experience... Shoai Dying is pretty time consuming. The price for most of their stuff makes sense, considering most everything is done on bare indigo leaves by hand. Looks like good stuff. Blue Japan says their stuff is made in Tokushima, which is the mecca of Japanese indigo dye-stuffs. If you have a pair of these you should really appreciate the color.

PBJs from Blue in Green. Not sure what model, though, but it's a slimmer cut. No washes, no soaks, and haven't started wearing them yet. I'm about 6' and 140 lb; these are a size 28. Not quite as tight as I'd like in the waist, so I might do a warm / hot soak (though not sure if it's worth it if I'll lose all that stacking)

im your exact measurements. i suggest you get looser jeans? i got a 30 in the 007s. im just tired of the ball crushing. youll be so relieved if you loosen up

[PandaDenim]

PBJs are hard to size.

But like LeatherSeatBelt said if you size up they are extremely comfortable and the fades are AMAZING, it just has this huge bulge in the crotch... :/

I got a 31 last time, this time I need to get a 29 I'm pretty sure, haha.

Took this today at work. Around two weeks.

[PandaDenim]

I love the slub.

After a while you can see the vertical falling come in and it's amazing.

[soulsoi]

who's had their crotch rip ? im not even at a full month yet and

the area where the crotch and inseam meet has a crease and its starting to fade like an inside whisker. the indigo bled through the inside where the crease is.

i dont really sag im sure theres not much stress in that area, but im thinking its just softening up and fading from walking.

anyone have this experience?

[Althis]

here's my crotch at just over a month in case it helps

[soulsoi]

its not exactly like that...yet.

but the fading it starting.

im so paranoid that im going to have my crotch blown so early in the project

[Althis]

if it gets much worse then imma just take the denim i got when i got them hemmed (about 3 inches off) and patch the inside crotch with it and hope itll hold lol

[Baeyer-Drewson]

i like that crotch!

alright, that seals it for me... scotty2 is either actually "special" in the intellect arena or it is someone trolling under a pseudonym.

[Althis]

what the fuck

[soulsoi]

haha anyways

althis what have you been doing in your jawnz btw if you dont mind me asking

[Baeyer-Drewson]

no hate althis, your jeans are sweet, you obviously haven't seen scotty shitting all over the denim threads of late.

[Althis]

basically everything, running around playing in the snow just doin random shit i suppose, i dont even sag them, just kinda slouch them a little since i accidentally got one size too big =/ but i'm happy withem

i've seen scotty shitting everywhere i was just surprised by what he actually said, mostly what he's been saying is just like "hey i like your nice fades"

come to think of it i do go up a lot of stairs and sometimes when i sit, i cross my legs or put one on the other knee which could explain so much wear on it

[panthermodern]

Sadly, I think he is making the transition from well-intentioned idiot to shitty troll. Disappointing.

oh okay. for a second i thought i was wearing mine a bit too hard.

im still in high school so i kinda walk around a lot too. when im in class i sometimes but my leg or sometimes both on the seat while im sitting and i feel like im stressing the hell out of them. i also cross and criss-cross my legs when im sitting on a chair or the floor. and i also bboy.

i dont think my jawnz will hold up a full year

[Althis]

im still in high school too (junior), sometimes it feels like im really stressing it too but i dont wanna baby them or anything, i'll just get them repaired if the time comes

[soulsoi]

senior here, but yeah i just wanted to make sure i wasnt working them too hard.so thanks for the help

[PandaDenim]

Wow you guys are so young to be buying such expensive denim...

Haha, but more importantly you might grow out of them!

Anyway, my pbj xx-005s have some really bad stretching because I biked in them for the first 2 months I had them.

[outsidazz]

guys, quick question please.. i just received me 007 one wash and tad small. they wont shrink again, will they?

[lenn]

don't worry they are a one wash so they won't shrink... they'll stretch out to a perfect size...

[outsidazz]

don't worry they are a one wash so they won't shrink... they'll stretch out to a perfect size...

yeahhhh... this is what i really wanted. cheers for that.

[outsidazz]

i guess u can check the measurements on BIG, they will tell you how much they shrink after you wash it
