Pure Blue Japan (PBJ)

[Stormowl]

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

[nietenhosen]

true. better size one up on pbj's, i guess.

New jawns? I'm pretty excited to see how those evolve given the reputation you've earned with your 666s.

[nietenhosen]

nope, got them mid last year, worn barely.

Depends on how you want them to fit.

[nietenhosen]

thats true as well, but these suckers are really short in the back rise and roomy from the knee down.
in my case sizing up is the right way to get a comfortable fit.

great fit on them trousers sir!

I got them in size W31, W32 and W33 - still can't decide which size is best…sizing down (W31) is ok but kind of pathetic at my age, W32 is ok but W33 feels cooler (with a belt).

These PBJ's are great stuff, touched and tried some yesterday and will probably add one pretty soon to my collection. Really great fabric

Gonna put up my 009s for sale soon. Fabric is immaculate but the cut just isn't for me, even after tapering them.  Sz. 32 w/ 33" inseam. If anyone's interested…

A simple truth: wear your jeans for a long time, they will end up looking great.

(you should try it BF!)
