Pure Blue Japan 6.5oz "Signature" Indigo Dyed Pocket Tee
Pure Blue Japan to dye for!
A staple signature part of the PBJ line is their ever-evolving range of indigo-dyed tees, and this year's set is no exception. Some of the richest indigo garments you could get your blue hands on!
Made in a weighty 6.5oz knitting fabric out of 100% cotton, these tees sit easily on the body being both super comfy and flattering. Woven on vintage weaving machines, the surface texture is incredibly soft, being slowly woven in small batches. This care in construction can be seen across the whole garment, with a sturdy reinforced collar band and the delicate indigo leaf embroidery PBJ logo.
In addition to the classic single chest pocket, this version features flat-seam side construction and ribbed sleeve cuffs which have been slowly woven on vintage jacquard machines so you can enjoy that next level of comfort and wind protection!
Of course, this immaculate construction is all in service to the truly stunning indigo dye work on display. PBJ flexes their indigo expertise with every subtle shade! Yarn-dyed, meaning the colour is deeply pressed into the weave, the shirt will fade and contrast with wear, and over time create an astonishing tapestry of colour.
This season we got Genuine Indigo, Grand Indigo, Greencast Indigo and Icy Indigo for you!
Pure Blue Japan 16oz WSB-013 "Double Slub" Denim
Welcome to the textured universe!
We are excited to introduce a new ultra-slubby denim creation cooked up by PBJ and founder and leader -- Iwaya-san!
This newly developed 16oz blue selvedge I.D. denim is constructed using indigo thread-dyed irregular yarns that have been slowly woven using vintage machines. This results in an ultra-slubby denim with a three-dimensional texture. With wear and washing, you can expect to see some beautiful high-contrast indigo hues coming through with a strong vertical texture!
This denim features heavy-duty chain stitching, hidden back pocket rivets and roped belt loop construction for added durability! The high-density veg-tanned lambskin patch will gradually soften and become shinier with a darker patina!
If you're keen to try some of the best vertical slub denim, this "Double Slub" series from PBJ is a great choice!
