This is a denim for those who love their fabrics to come with a tonne of upfront character. The heavyweight, 18oz fabric is woven at low tensions using short staple cotton. This creates a richly textured but surprisingly soft denim with a quick break in. Don’t let the “Super Rough” moniker fool you - this is a very comfortable pair of jeans once broken in. PBJ’s "019" Relaxed Tapered fit is perfect for those who prefer a modern slim cut with a higher rise and a little extra wiggle room in the thigh.
Elliot wears a size 30w jeans. He is 185cm tall and weighs 74kg / 6ft 1" and 163 lbs.
Important: The best way to determine the size you need is to measure a similar item you already own and compare with the actual sizing as per the table below. Do not go by tagsize alone. After an initial soak this jean will shrink 1" in the waist, 0.5" in the thigh, and 2" in the inseam.
