Pure Blue Japan (PBJ)
-
Hi @sabergirl , tried on my iphone to offer what i know from owning a pair of pbj's however, tagging you only seems to work from my laptop.

Thanks for the insight, @Black Orchid. I've definitely experienced the not bring able to tag phenomenon (like now). I am loving the pbjs, denim is really something special. I'm pretty sure my pair are XX-003s, judging from the measurements. There's also a small tag on the pocket bag that says "3", which reinforces my suspicion.

Hey @sabergirl Just wanted to show you a fit pic of my PBJ'S as until now I couldnt do them up
but on this rotate I can…. Extra pounds does not go alongside denim investment...

WOW this is one great fit Black Orchid. The best fitting PBJ jeans in my book.
Backed 100%!
backed and backed again @Black Orchid

Go for it @sabergirl… I noticed that you spin and I run and work out so we both have butts and good thighs and these are amazing which as you know is hard to come by in quality denim..I just wish I could find the model number for you.

Haha yeah! "Good thighs" is a nice way of putting it. I certainly have a hard time finding cuts that fit, though. Thigh measurement must be over 13", or it's a no-go. Most of the time I have to size up in the waist to be able to squeeze into slim cuts. Women's jeans are always out, first because of inseam, but also because whoever designs them thinks no female has thighs over 11.5"?! Puhleeze.
Sorry for the rant. Maybe I'll make it back to self edge or BiG one day to try on some new cuts.

male cyclists have a similar issues on the thighs. I share your pains on this one ladies!
tell me about it @Snowy !!! ive been cycling since i was a wee nipper and certain cuts are out of the question for me
however, i've swapped cycling for running and my thighs are changing and i can, just about, squeeze into my IH-555's. -
I've always wanted to get a top from PBJ, like a button-up or a jacket. But the problem I have seem to be all over the place. Maybe their fits just aren't meant for me (unlike IH).
Arms almost always too long, shoulders WAY too narrow. Their tops seem designed for lanky, skinny, tall-ish (at least not stocky-ish) folks for whatever reason. I've not seen anything with broad enough shoulders. And if I size up to the correct shoulder width, the chest becomes oversized and sleeves way too long. Just seems like lose/lose/lose without any hope.
I am tempted to pick up the deep indigo 14oz. jeans though, those look pretty spot on (the straight cut).
