This is the last thing I need, a new denim obsession. ****. I want the deep indigo ones. And those black ones above. ****.


Yes, yes. PBJ makes great denim. Don't ever get those 32s wet or you'll never fit into them again.

I should have stated that I soaked em prior to wearing. Funny story actually. Soaked em. Put em outside to dry. Then it rained. Super soaked.

My PBJ 007s after 2 years, much more contrast in natural daylight I think.

He'll be fine if he's pretty skinny. PBJs run a little bit big in the waist anyway when raw, and they can stretch a ton.

Here's a pretty good representation of how they fit. Taken today. Bought (-1). PBJxx009.

As I'd said earlier - a great change up from super-slim offerings. Can't pack your balls in there every day without a bit of relief every now and again.

The waist does look a bit big (especially in the first photo, but it could just be the angle). That's a pretty vicious taper though. I think they look fine besides that.

Try another really hot soak. Even though the first one was long, PBJs will usually shrink a bit more with another.
