The 14oz unsanforized selvedge is low-tension woven on vintage shuttle looms in Ibara, Okayama using carefully selected American and Indian cottons, producing a fabric with an uber-slubby, hairy surface texture and a depth of indigo that rewards the kind of patient, hard wear that brings out the best in this cloth. PBJ is widely regarded as one of the masters of indigo dye, and the XX fabric is the clearest expression of why. The fades this denim produces have become some of the most talked-about in Japanese denim circles, developing contrast and character in a way that the low-tension weave and slubby construction make possible. Construction details are understated but executed with the precision of experienced artisans using thicker threads than most brands, iron buttons, embossed metal hardware, heavy-duty bar tacks, high-quality pocket bags, a custom lambskin leather patch, and the signature Shoai leaf embroidery on the back pocket. 14oz 100% cotton unsanforized selvedge denim Low-tension woven on vintage shuttle looms, Ibara, Okayama Uber-slubby textured surface, exceptional fade potential Relaxed tapered cut, -019 silhouette Iron buttons and embossed metal hardware Heavy-duty bar tacks, thick thread construction High-quality pocket bags Shoai leaf embroidery on back pocket Custom lambskin leather patch Made in Japan Size Waist Hips Front Rise Back Rise Upper Thigh Knee Leg Opening Inseam 30 28.7" 20.1 10.8 14.2 11.6 7.3 6.3 33.1 31 29.9 21.3 11.0 14.4 11.9 7.8 6.6 33.1 32 31.5 21.5 11.2 14.6 12.2 8.1 6.7 33.1 33 32.3 22.6 11.3 14.8 12.4 8.1 6.8 33.1 34 33.1 22.9 11.5 15.0 12.8 8.3 6.9 33.1 35 33.9 23.8 11.8 15.2 13.1 8.6 7.1 33.1 36 34.6 24.2 11.9 15.4 13.2 8.9 7.3 33.1 38 35.8 25.2 12.1 15.6 13.6 9.1 7.6 33.1 40 38.2 25.8 12.4 15.6 13.8 9.3 7.7 33.1 A variance of +/-.5 is within tolerance.  Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy popped up to a 35 in these, as well. This is likely going to be his new normal size from PBJ. The Relax Taper is slim enough that he wants to get a bit of extra room in the leg. We recommend sizing up twice in these. Tommy is 5'9," 165lbs with a 33-34" waist.  *The Relaxed Tapered fit from Pure Blue Japan offers a higher rise with room in the top block and a heavy taper through the leg for a clean, slim look.* table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; } th, td { border: 1px solid black; padding: 8px; text-align: center; } th { background-color: #f2f2f2; } ## Appearance - **Colors:** Relaxed Taper - **Sizes:** 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 40 (per-size availability under Variants) - **Materials:** 100% cotton unsanforized selvedge denim Low-tension woven on vintage shuttle looms, 14oz 100% cotton unsanforized selvedge denim ## Variants - **In stock:** 6 of 9 - **Available:** 30, 31, 32, 33, 36, 38 - **Color (all variants):** Relaxed Taper | Size | SKU | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | | 30 | BOPBJ019-30 | In stock | | 31 | BOPBJ019-31 | In stock | | 32 | BOPBJ019-32 | In stock | | 33 | BOPBJ019-33 | In stock | | 34 | BOPBJ019-34 | Out of stock | | 35 | BOPBJ019-35 | Out of stock | | 36 | BOPBJ019-36 | In stock | | 38 | BOPBJ019-38 | In stock | | 40 | BOPBJ019-40 | Out of stock | ## Categories - **Categories:** Pants ## Additional Attributes - **tags:** apparel, denim, pants - **origin:** Made in Japan - **vendor:** Pure Blue Japan - **size chart:** Waist: 30 28.7", Hips: 30 20.1, Front Rise: 30 10.8, Back Rise: 30 14.2, Upper Thigh: 30 11.6, Knee: 30 7.3, Leg Opening: 30 6.3, Inseam: 30 33.1 - **product type:** Pants - **fabric weight:** 14oz 100% cotton unsanforized selvedge denim - **shopify handle:** xx-019-14oz-original-selvedge-denim-relaxed-taper - **country of origin:** Made in Japan ## Enrichment - **Type:** jeans - **Type Synonyms:** denim pants, selvedge denim - **Gender:** male - **Age Groups:** adult - **Tags:** selvedge, relaxed taper, cuffed hem, five-pocket, indigo, heavyweight denim - **Styles:** heritage, workwear, casual, minimalist - **Category Path:** Apparel & Accessories > Clothing > Pants > Jeans - **Denim Fabric:** Rigid, Selvedge Edge - **Denim Finish Effects:** Raw - **Denim Wash:** Dark - **Fabric:** Cotton, Denim - **Fit:** Relaxed / Boyfriend Fit - **Leg Shape:** Tapered - **Pattern:** Solid - **Stretch Level:** None - **Canonical Brand:** Pure Blue Japan ## Images - ![Image 1](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/db9b1f0bb028795ec8e66dd8c759c9d8.webp) - ![Image 2](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/e269618d947859082a418ebb4e08828c.webp) - ![Image 3](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/532c4d8e499cc0cea6cf79706b6c70a6.webp) - ![Image 4](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/d69e9d90df295cb8f6cdc0f6d8ed6cb4.webp) - ![Image 5](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/397f6a149abab693c2e39e5e157dbecf.webp) - ![Image 6](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/6a8dd6fe8d3b3eb07794c121258e4227.webp) - ![Image 7](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/a440638917f96af0bdfa2f988957325f.webp) - ![Image 8](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/3ae5cdde95d55c867571a44a71da2505.webp) - ![Image 9](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/57a0fd150b66c83b8320ba8e389bb957.webp) - ![Image 10](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/630ecef1dc43e81bb6906f2da76f76c6.webp) - ![Image 11](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/5899bfbfa23e687afca3a7ea71548512.webp) - ![Image 12](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/798ddf88ee0b65e1d965b292834c2bcb.webp) - ![Image 13](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/c66a1b713874f7f7316e0f321dcf2e67.webp) - ![Image 14](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/d6e1b1d7e57039b8f301914860ee92fa.webp) - ![Image 15](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/10f72d0721e6873073d46df6b4222a5f.webp) - ![Image 16](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/23702aa5e4d96a9296ccf40f9a56cd61.webp) - ![Image 17](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/e094e1a7cbea33caf9a8304f892e0823.webp) - ![Image 18](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/5a6c6c67a8278e420baccb7a6b83e3ca.webp) - ![Image 19](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/7191046d6bed97354aee914048c41c18.webp) - ![Image 20](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/b45a388fbf61d2f3467a84f2427d9618.webp) - ![Image 21](https://cdn.octogen.ai/08bc83c984b74c58ffb35e54ca05b516/69b50db7aaea1b9ba2ff7d64a41524b2.webp) --- *Source: cosimo.shop | Product ID: 2d7ff940-4127-458c-844f-50b0ac683d70 | Canonical URL: https://cosimo.shop/product/pure-blue-japan/xx-019-14oz-original-selvedge-denim-relaxed-taper-2d7ff940-4127-458c-844f-50b0ac683d70*
