new pbj design

[Bona Drag]

i like it alot. not enough to buy PBJ tho.

cheep, why no love for pbj?

iirc you took a shot or two in xx-005 thread

b/c it's not a true repro?

i dig the leaf, but if/when i get another pair i might take a seam ripper and do away with it anyway...

[cheep]

no... i just dont like them enough to buy them. everytime i think about getting jeans there is something i like better. last time it was the sam contest. this time its the warehouse contest jeans. after that ill have 2 pairs of contest prize jeans to wear out.

[wild style]

I'm into it.

[headtowall]

Definitely into it, probably more than the blue tab. I'd prefer the leaf to be green, but I'm wierd.

Is the XX-008 definitely happening?

[fallen angels]

i like it.

a green leaf or a blue leaf would look a lot nicer i think.

[mizanation]

i am guessing that the leaf will turn blue over time.

[justinbaily21]

I would prefer a leaf with a blue or green color and white veins, but to each his own. I also think that the leaf will turn blue over time. I like the changes that they have made.

[denihilist]

What's the rumor on the XX-008?

[nettiemoore]

i think it looks great -- not eyeblaringly obvious.

i agree. i like how it looks.

[Tarmac]

looks good, way better than these other terrible 7FAM-ish designs repro brands are coming up with

[J20]

Sup_

I like it.

Different from others. I like the idea of it turning blue, but it being a green would be nice also.

Also the patch does look a tad darker.

Peace.

What's the cut on the 008, i haven't been around as much as i used to.

[mikesduc]

I like it. Very nice. Much preferred over fucked up arcuates i.e. SC

[sarcasticone]

Does anyone else think the logo on the pocket reminds them of Volcom jeans?

[Chicken]

fantastic.

[rome1]

I like the little leaf, but I skeptical how it will look over time. And could't they place it somewhere else other than where skull puts their "X" or is this the designated placement for all future icons because is it derived form the fact that thats where the tabs used to go?

[PG2G]

The rumor is the XX-008 is the XX-005/007 cut in the XX-006 denim.

yeah, i think that's why they put em there. maybe later in jean evolution, we will find different branding in other places....

Yep.

im confused with the sizing on these pbjs..

it says a size 28 is a 30.5 waist pre-wash then for post wash it says size 28 is waist 28.. does that mean before washing size 28 is 2" more (making it 30.5) then after uve washed it, it becomes 28?

can somebody help clear this up? cuz im thinking of buying a pair but im not sure how to go about reading the measurements

[PG2G]

They are unsanforized and raw, so they can shrink ~2 inches in the waist and ~3 inches in the length. This is how most Japanese brands are.

The tagged size is supposed to match the post-shrink size.

[FashionWhor3]

well i usually wear a waist 32, but i notice that its still a bit loose around the waist, so should i buy a size 30 (32.5w pre-washed) then wash it so that it becomes W30?

I like breathing and breeding, so my advice would be no.

[FashionWhor3]

^^ lol..so in other words i should size up..

[FashionWhor3]

The PBJ thread recommends buying true to waist, or sizing up one. The thighs are cut slim, for the 005 anyways.

thanks bro..and thanks to the other guy also.. ill probably grab a 30 then

[>++fishb0neR]

The rumor is the XX-008 is the XX-005/007 cut in the XX-006 denim.

time for a new cut perhaps?

everything seems to be modeled after the 005, heh..

with regards to sizing..

if you are at all muscular in the leg area, SIZE UP. don't sacrifice your own comfort...

i'm glad i did.

2 short cold soaks and one long hot soak later (with 2+ weeks wear) i have found a quality fit, in the inseams too.

[theetruscan]

Errr, if you normally wear a 32, and the 32 shrinks to a 32 after washing, why would you grab a 30?

[PG2G]

Buy the 32

[denihilist]

I normally wear a 30 so that's what I bought. When I got my XX-003's in the mail from BiG, they were kind of tight. I was worried but I wore them for a few weeks, then did a warm soak wearing them. Another hot soak a week later and they were perfect.

My suggestion is buy your size.
