SS-5011-IDBK - Jersey Crew Neck Short Sleeve T-shirt - Black Indigo

$ 149.00

The Pure Blue Japan Indigo Overdyed Tee showcases the brand’s unmatched mastery of indigo. These tees are crafted in Japan from soft, medium-weight cotton with a smooth, broken-in feel from day one. The yarn-dyed indigo base will fade beautifully over time, and this version has been overdyed black to create even more depth. With each wash and wear, the black layer gradually gives way to blue undertones, revealing a rich, vintage character that’s unique to the wearer.

What makes these tees so special is the complexity of the color. Under certain light, the surface reads as charcoal or deep navy, but as the fabric softens and ages, the true indigo tone begins to bloom underneath. It’s a slow process that rewards repeated wear, much like a great pair of jeans. The fabric itself has a refined hand - not too heavy, not too light - that drapes naturally and feels cool against the skin. Finished with a clean neckline and PBJ’s signature build quality, it’s a rare staple that will only get better with time.

  • 100% cotton

Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size 5 in this t-shirt. This was what most people would consider a perfect t-shirt fit. If you want a little more room, like he would, you can go up even further. He could likely wear a 6 in this t-shirt and be completely happy with it. Tommy is 5'10,' 162lbs with a 40" chest.
