Pure Blue Japan (PBJ)

Shirts are here. I can see why the sizing is a little tricky, as they're slim throughout the body.
Shoulders on mine are rather wide, but that's not so easy noticed. Too much dad bod showing would have been the worse choice.
And they're long - thank god for that, that's why with the exception of the 11oz, the IH tees are not working for me (and the bib straps are too short). -
Got mine today in black size 6. Border line tight but doable

Yes they do @ARNC. I have to be mindful when washing them in just cold water and hung dry otherwise they become way too tight. I have a few of them love the quality just wish they had a size 7 but can't fault them. When my weightlifting time comes to an end they will fit just fine.

@tody congrats I think it looks excellent on you!
Two noteworthy updates from my side:
- The Dark Indigo Tee is showing some progress after ~30 wears and ~10 washes
- I picked up the Jacquard Sashiko Gray/Black Shorts and they are freaking amazing. Soft, cozy, breathable, sturdy, thick… All at once.
(The Samurai 15Oz Chinos are also really nice!!)

@ARNC & @Mizmazzle you guys are of course right, it’s actually called black indigo. The regular one is called „deep indigo“. Have no clue how I came up with dark indigo haha
@tody didnt know they made a type 3 from this. Sounds very tempting…

The fades of the indigo t-shirt are insane
-
@Cskarev they start to look very cool with regular wear and washes, really a favoorite shirt

Iron Heart denim are always consistent, clean, well stitched, and built to last. I really enjoy my pairs. I however enjoy slubby, loose weave denim as I feel they have more character and is interesting.
Ive been looking to add a non dark indigo or black pair of denim to the rotation. This one fit the bill nicely. PBJ make some of the finest Japanese Selvedge denim in my opinion. These 14oz Pure Blue Japan SMBL-19 comes in a vintagey Smokey Blue colour is awesome. Kind of a grey, green and blue cast. Blue selvedge ID is always a welcome sight.
