[Mr Calvin Oscar]

20 days. No starch or other adulterations.

Holy shit those look nice....

[Dangydang]

headtowall, they're lookin proper! Have you experienced any stretching with yours around the thighs?

[mizanation]

sorry for the repeat post, but i love my pbj xx-005s so much i have to post here too!

[greentea]

did you find the thigh area a little snug?

[sbw4224]

I found it very snug, and I have thin thighs.

[greentea]

yeah digi gave me the measurements. i think pbj screwed on the thigh measurements, might have tapered a little too soon

[mizanation]

i think a good rule of thumb on the pbj's is to size up one inch, because of the low-rise factor. since it sits on your hips, you're gonna need that extra inch for the extra hip width. i wear a 31 in most 501 repros, but for the pbj's 32 was perfect for me after a soak. that's if you have hips. if you don't have hips, get your regular size. does anyone else agree with this?

I got a 30 which is my regular size, but I went ahead and used a waistband stretcher to stretch em out a tad. If I had to do it over again, I probably would size up one, just to avoid that hassle. I don't find the thighs too tight though. All in all, I couldn't be happier with them.

[headtowall]

They're definitely a little tight on the thighs. I got a 30, and I think going up a size would have been fine. I'm happy with them as they are though.

They haven't stretched much, but enough to be comfortable.

i thought these come in 2 size bigger? or did you get the one wash vefrsion.BIG carries the XX i believe.

[headtowall]

I got the one wash from coldrice.

[Dangydang]

Me in my size 30s. Fits perfectly...not too tight, not too loose. The 28s I had before were skin tight leggings on me. I could probably fit a 29, but they'd probably still be too uncomfortable due to the low rise. For reference, I weigh 125lbs.

[mizanation]

looks perfect dangydang. nice choice and size.

[sphoxx]

tried these on today at blue in green, amazing fit. def agree w/the rest about the hand of the denim, fantastic.

[LanceP]

I can't wait to get mine in the mail.

[sphoxx]

thoughts?

[headtowall]

thoughts?

Fit is great, but I would ease up on the cuffs. Jeans look great bunched up around your shoes.

[sphoxx]

Oh, I don't wear them like that, just did it for the photo to show the total length.

edit: here's some stuff...

color compare

yeah, i love the bunching effect on the xx-005s. it's hard not to look good in these jeans.

[tweeds]

wow the richness of the indigo is never more apparent than in that comparison with the diors. amazing.

[Dangydang]

So are the ones available from BIG all raw?

[mizanation]

[adsurgo]

im wronggggg

[Guest The Diplomatic Aristocrat]

How much did you guys pay for them?

[ddohnggo]

i believe the pricepoint is $205, which isn't bad at all (relatively speaking)

[mizanation]

they do have washed versions of the xx-003s if im correct.

no, they only have washed versions of the AI-001.

they only have raw versions of the XX-005, XX-003 and XX-004.

[PG2G]

Washed AI-001? How do they look?
