I had fun flipping thru this thread and seeing everyone’s PBJ’s. Just got the XX-012 from BiG. Love the leaf detail on the back of the buttons. Fit pics to come as they’ve just been soaked.

@twin  your pics inspired me to don my xx-020 for the spring months.

After roughly 60-70 wears, I decided to give my PBO-001 their first wash. They're coming along quite nicely. The evo has been fairly rapid, for an OD denim…

A couple of shots, next to the SE 633S-OD. The 633 have less than a third of the wears, mind you…

@scooter can you show full picture of PB-001? I am interested in this denim and wanted to see the full picture of the denim front

@Mustafa911 these are the PBJxBOW collabs.  The photo is after about 50-60 wears and two cold soaks.  I have since soaked them again and they have a bit more life to them now.

This is a fantastic T-shirt!

@bloodnthunder 
Thanks . The color looks amazing and different type of OD. I’ve had this in my cart since last night when I learned about 20% discount coupon. Excited

I don't think you'll be disappointed.  They are super slubby which helps the overdye wear off quicker yielding a nice electric blue.  I tend to wear my jeans in really slow, but these are definitely fast faders.

@Mustafa911 … @BloodnThunder is spot on, here.

I'll add, they are a different animal than the IH-OD, altogether.  I find the IH to be a more saturated black, undoubtedly from the intensity of the over-dyeing process. The PBJ first arrived a dark black, but in the light they had quite a peek through indigo hue, and the black dye sheds far more rapidly. I imagine this is due to a far less intense, and more superficial over-dyeing process. I think this all makes sense if you consider, with the IH all possible shrinkage is removed in the OD process, while the PBJ still shrink a considerable amount.
