      @spitfiredealer:

      I picked up a pair of PBJ XX 0019 BB Relaxed taper the other day.

      I don't think I would really class them as relaxed but the top block is pretty comfortable just the knee is tight.

      ah was in Rivet when you tried it on and i said to myself i know the face somewhere.  Good choice mate. Another favourite brand of mine

          I just copped a used pair of PBJ 013- 18oz unsanforized. Any body have any history with this model?

          Maybe so. Maybe not

            While I don't have that specific model, I do have 2 pairs with the same cut and 18oz denim( AI-003, PBO-001). It's a great character denim. I love the texture of all my PBJ denims. But, the heavier gauge yarns of the 18oz really bring out the slub. They are an excellent alternative to IH. They're an entirely different animal. You'll certainly notice the difference, when you get your hands on them. They are by no means over-engineered, like IH. But, I have generally found PBJ to have well above average craftsmanship. You've made a wise choice, IMO. Enjoy !

            I've been wanting to nab a pair of the 22oz version of XX-013. But, I've got a few items to get rid of, first. I've been anxious to find how much difference the extra 4oz makes. The 18oz will certainly remain my favorite denim of any brand, for now, though.

            Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

              Thanks @scooter ik looking forward to them. I handled a pair at of PBJ at def edge a month or two ago but I don’t remember the model. They were nice though. And coarse

                I have the 22oz XX-013 but have been curious about the 18oz version. I recall someone telling me that the 18oz was the slubbier of the two. I haven’t figured out a justification for having both. Yet.

                I’ve only got about 60-ish wears on these but they’re definitely my favourite jeans, even over my IH and Momotaros. I have the purple face XX-014 also, but that’s a whole other thing…

                    Just got my 013 in the mail. They fit great and are very nice. My quick impression is they are very very soft for and 18oz denim and surprisingly cool as opposed to warm. I suppose that’s from the loose weave. I will enjoy these this summer. I like the slubby yarn. Pics soon

                        Very nice, those 17oz LHT ones have been on my list a while. I just got a great deal on some PBE-019 beige core popups (the nep is real!) so they'll probably have to stay on the list a while longer…

                          The texture of these PBE-019s is wild, inside and out. Neppy and hairy like the devil.

                            @yesblank enjoy , x-011 17oz is really good and so far looks like fast fading. I didn’t know PBE19 is that neppy from inside . I’ve had the opportunity  to get this at sale price in my size but I passed and got -x11 , I wished saw this neppy picture before . Someone told me PBE-19 is really good. X-13 18or 22 is on my wish list . Since I have 2x25ox and 2x23 oz not sure I wanted another heavy22oz.

                              It did not know that they make denim that is not like that lol.

                              Both pairs of PBJ I have owned were like that and one of the nicest denim I have seen along with Oni.

                              It goes super soft also

                                  They call it Secret Denim. All I know its 20oz and kinda similar to PBJ in some ways

                                  The top is PBJ 14oz and bottom is Oni secret denim 20oz jacket

                                          Love your LHT and 18oz, but those Aizome… damn. If ever I had a grail jean that would be them.
