      The back pockets on my xx-011's needs repaired.  i'm always stuffing my newspaper in there and it's been too much for the side stitching, need to get them to a tailor for a patch up job as the leaf is holding one on.

        634S versus PBJ XX-009:


        Those 634S Vs XX009 pics are amazing. A beautiful comparison of two very awesome, yet completely different, denims.

        I'm in the early stages of a pair of 007, and can understand why people say that PBJ denim is some of the wildest out there. Loving it - just hoping I don't get the excessive stretch issue that was mentioned earlier.

            these pics explain why I love both IH and PBJ. If IH didnt exist I would wear nothing but PBJ's (and maybe some samurais, and maybe some momotaros, and maybe some roy's). Since IH does exist, I hardly ever wear by PBJ's but when I do, I go: wow, these are great…

              I know exactly what you mean, gbougard. I don't wear my PBJ often enough either, but I still love 'em to death. Their denim is completely unique.

                                  perfecto!…

                                  is that green-ish colour on the 43 really green-ish or just cuz of the flasher/camera settings?

                                        I recently purchased a pair of the 24-007 PBJ's.  The denim used in these is truly unique.  They shrink a fair amount though after the first soak and I wouldn't recommend sizing down!  I sized up, and after they soak they are almost as tight as a pair of Momotaro 0702's (Deep Indigo Tight Straight).  Rise is low also, almost as low as Somet 003 slim.

                                            nice to see a more regular fit on the 005. Most guys size them tight so they look like they were bootcut
