634S versus PBJ XX-009:

Those 634S Vs XX009 pics are amazing. A beautiful comparison of two very awesome, yet completely different, denims.

I'm in the early stages of a pair of 007, and can understand why people say that PBJ denim is some of the wildest out there. Loving it - just hoping I don't get the excessive stretch issue that was mentioned earlier.

these pics explain why I love both IH and PBJ. If IH didnt exist I would wear nothing but PBJ's (and maybe some samurais, and maybe some momotaros, and maybe some roy's). Since IH does exist, I hardly ever wear by PBJ's but when I do, I go: wow, these are great…

I know exactly what you mean, gbougard. I don't wear my PBJ often enough either, but I still love 'em to death. Their denim is completely unique.

Can't wait for my tapered 009s to arrive… Might do another month on the 666'es though... If the weather allows it...

[hajduk]

tapered the 009?
the 007 was not working on u?
did u try this cut?

[Seul]

Rise on 007 is too low…

BiG just restocked the 009s in most sizes - got a pair. Excited for this denim!

[Seul]

The one wash model?..

[thewickett]

nah I got raw.. no way of knowing how harsh the one wash is

PBJ XX-009 - tapered 0.75" top to bottom.

[RocknRoll]

Sweet!

[Finn666]

perfecto!…

is that green-ish colour on the 43 really green-ish or just cuz of the flasher/camera settings?

[Seul]

It's more "vintage black" irl…

Some crappy "Before 5-6 months of wear" (that's the plan) pics…

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.
