Does this denim feel as it could stretch? A size 3 would fit me great if it had one extra inch in the chest, 21" instead of 20" as noted in the sizing chart.

I think the arms will loosen on mine but i dont know about the chest. They're tight around the forearm but only a little. The size 4 also feels fitted on my frame - I'm 5'11, 175lbs. The p2p measurement is 21.5" so it's exactly on spec, in other words, perfect. You could probably get away with a 4 because we're only talking a half inch. But, i dont know your measurements so it may not work for you. I'd rather have a slightly looser jacket than a tight fitting one. This jacket is listed as once washed but a hot soak may shrink it down a little if you're bold enough to trying it

Rivet & Hide now has the PBJ natural indigo type 2 for sale on their site. Looks like PBJ is ramping up production on their type 2's - first theres the restocks of the deep indigo, then the glen check and now the natural indigo.

Doesn't Denimio have the Studio D'artisan type 2? I know I saw it. Don't know if it's the same one you're talking about though.

not cheap but the fabric is pretty similar to pbj natural indigo type 2. The Rakuten listing only goes up to size 42. I wonder if they make bigger sizes? Denimio might be able to get it for you if you ask, but you'd have to know your size

My guess is if Okayama Denim or Denimio end up carrying the natural indigo type 2 it'll retail for $350 instead of $250 like the deep indigo

That houndstooth jacket on R&H is sick without all the jazziness on the front. Fabric is really nice. Reminds me of my IHSH 100 (duck canvas CPO) that didn't seem to get much love for some reason.

I like the different shade of blue the jackets on this houndstooth from a distance. up close not so sure.. got my deep indigo size 4 shipped out today from Denimio so hopefully it fits better than the massive 5 XXL was a big jump on measurements.

The new type 2's are interesting. The only one I don't really care for is the striped one. It looks odd

Does PBJ make anything that isn't Indigo? I mean I know their name is Pure Blue Japan but is that seriously their schtick? It seems every single product I have seen of theirs is blue/indigo.

I saw a beautiful pair of PBJ sulphur dyed black jeans in a store in Melbourne. They were made in collaboration with the store so don't know if they have any others anywhere else, though I'd imagine they would somewhere. I've been trying to talk myself of going back to get them ever since I left..

it's all about the indigo with pbj. they got a new long sleeve tee I seen yesterday on Okayama www.okayamadenim.com/collections/pure-blue-japan/products/pure-blue-japan-ls-komon-pattern-tee?variant=9772681989. they have released a few things not but are very subtle amount. got my size 4 from Denimio today fits this time:D I wish it wasn't so up inside my armpits still struggle to take the jacket off but nothing like when I had last season size 4. still got the 5 for sale.. guess will have to take some better pics this time in decent light. would send it back for store credit but nothing they have seems to interest me much at Okayama that haven't already seen elsewhere. Think ive reached limit on indigo shirts(so the woman tells me lol) but they do have nice jacquard pattern one that interest me seen they exhibited somewhere.

Glad it worked out for you this time. I wish the PBJ jacket had hand warmer pockets
