I'd personally like to see a wider leg cut if there were to be a contest (ie: XX-003)...

I could cope with that - especially now there is a chainstitch hemming service in the UK

day 1 005BK

thanks to all in here who posted helpful fit info. I absolutely love these.

[Gold Soaked Afternoon]

shit, those fit great. They look abnormally tapered for the 05 fit (something I wish my 07s had, so I never would have tapered them and the tailor would have never fucked them up). The chunky cuffs look badass too.

[riff]

Dam Mackie - those were made for you! Can't rep... Oh, nice touch with the pink socks!

day 1 005BK

Best fit I've seen in a long while. Hey, can you throw out some numbers? Height, weight, waist, size of those 005s, soaked?

[Nuk1]

damn mackie, love the fit man, how can you get those fit man?

[A Beard of Stars]

Well, I don't think we can do a "small" contest. I was hoping to get around 100 people so that we could bargain for what we want.

The xx-011s would be fine, but they are too slim to get a wide range of people in my opinion. I was hoping to get enough people so that we could do the xx-005, one of my favorite jeans, with the left hand twill gray weft(xx-011) denim. That way the denim would be unique and the cut would be versatile.

Common people, I know you are up for this.

I'm down. My vote is for purple face bellbottoms.

But I don't think you can expect anywhere near 100 people.

[rjsavestheday]

^ i think you should size up 1, i believe gordon said on the site that the it's shrunk down more because of the material

PBJ 007

[bestie]

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to stukovx again.

i fucking LOVE 007s! yours look great stucko! 007s are pretty slim in the thighs right? i really hope these will suit me...

[billionaireboy]

For 007, should i size the same as my Flatheads?

[liewbaysea]

my new tapered x010's

sized up maybe 1-2?, love the fit as it is much less tight than my usual raws.... comfy!

For 007, should i size the same as my Flatheads?

yes

[gonegonegone]

am i blind or are those xx-007s?

[dontlookup]

not blind ^

they look like purples?

[PandaDenim]

...he says they are xx-011s...

[ssheat]

They are 010 tapered down (from my intuition).

[liewbaysea]

ssheat was on the money, my typo.

[Alex3000]

That selvege line is BEEFY

[PandaDenim]

Haha, my bad I only read the text.

So I left my camera at home so I'm thinking of doing some video waywts of my pbjs, LOL.

[2's & 3's]

Just copped a pair of 007's and all I can say is WOW. The color on these guys is damn beautiful! Unfortunately my 005's are a size too small and are just too uncomfy for my liking. So if anyone wants to buy a pair of brand new 005's size 28 let me know!

[redX]

pbj denim usually stretches out quite a lot, so give it a couple of wears they will probably stretch out to be comfy

[redX]

small update on my pbjs

couple more months and it's gonna be a year, next updates when that date rolls around

[modaxxa]

Does anyone here own a pair of pbj xx005bk one wash?

They are still going to break right? It seems there is no indigo left in them.

[A Beard of Stars]

Naw, I bought the one wash and they were completely washed out, like WalMart dad jean status D:

[PandaDenim]

???

modaxxa, one wash basically means they do the initial soak for you. The BKs, to your surprise, stand for black and there is actually no indigo in the jeans.

And they will fade, I have no idea what A Beard of Stars is talking about.

[modaxxa]

Thanks Panda, I'm glad there's still life left in them. , but here is the thing tho, usually when the raw jeans get wet you still can see some bleeds but for these I rubbed them with white napkin and there was nothing on the napkin except the food I spilled.

A beard of stars: which one you've got?

[mackie]

cheers for the rep and kind words AGSA, Riff and everyone else!

@AGSA, they do look a little tapered, but I think it might just be down to how my legs are shaped--big thighs and skinny calves, so they look tighter on top. maybe the cuff pulls them in a little bit too.

Best fit I've seen in a long while. Hey, can you throw out some numbers? Height, weight, waist, size of those 005s, soaked?

I basically went TTS on these, just following the BiG numbers and what folks on here suggested. I'm about 5'9", 135 lbs, actual waist ~30.5". After a soak I'd say these shrunk to just about a 30.5" waist--they were snug but still easy to get buttoned. They are snug enough in the thighs that I'm glad I didn't go down a size. They've also stretched a fair bit in a week of wear--cycling, walking, doing chores--and I can post the current measurements at some point if anyone wants.

not that it needs to be said again here, but this denim looks and feels amazing. if you're on the fence about some 005s, you will not be disappointed!

and @modaxxa, ABOS is just pulling your leg, man. just wear them and they will fade.

[redX]
