Pure Blue Japan (PBJ)

@madmonday:

i want a pair of PBJs just cause of the denim & the leaf is just genuis as far as logos go (at least for me anyway)

The logo is cool but my wife asked if I had gum stuck on my pants

Need a back shot there seul.

Agree with Monday I do like that leaf. For me it's how they do it half on half off the pocket

@Seul:

PBJ XX-009.

Seul, you're ready for their 24oz model. Same fabulous color, heavier feel, yet miraculously, the texture reminds of the 14oz texture.

[madmonday]

agree with you jimmy, the placement of the leaf is also key to my liking it.

figured only leaf i would love would be the fronto 

[Seul]

gbougard: I asked Gordon (BiG) whether the XX-009 would come out in 24 oz, and he said no… Otherwise I would've definitely waited for it...

[madmonday]

what is with the love of the heavier weight denim?  i know it's funny hearing that coming from an Iron Heart junkie like myself.  . . but still.  matter of fact don't answer will put in random questions.

i just refuse to delete my posts so it rides

Fourteen ounce doesn't feel sturdy enough on the workfloor… And not warm enough in the winter... Plus I'm used to sleeping in 14 oz. jeans so yeah...

With all this love of the leaf I kinda feel cheated now since no one can see it on me. I demand a crotch leaf.

GK, denim lovers will recognize PBJ's gorgeous denim though!

The image in my head of the crotch leaf is hilarious, for some reason it was a big leaf

I got both and they are stunning. Too bad I dont have more time to wear them, due to IH taking over!!!

Posted one somewhere else I think, but here it is:

[elclintor]

how is the rise on that model seul? the 007's were really low..

[Seul]

Not high enough, but definitely solid to work in… I don't really know how to explain this sufficiently...  :-\

[georgeel]

PBJ-24oz vs. IH-25oz. Who's better?

[elclintor]

My money's on IH….

[jimmy]

yeah i like the position of the back pockets. one thing that IH jeans seem to sit on my funny

[Giles]

You could have a long conversation with Haraki about back pocket placement.  He is exceedingly particular as to where he puts them and can talk about it for ages…...

[pillowPANTS]

I find if they r spaced too far apart that the make ur arse look wider than it is. Thats not a good look 

[georgeel]

Sorry, maybe I should be more specific… I wanted to talk strictly about denim.
