Japan Blue Momotaro

[Mr HaGa]

I was always under the impression that the 0201 was closer to a 66ish 501, no? Maybe not slim enough through the leg for that though...

thanks for the advice Opie.

1) Soaking jeans in warm water for 3 minutes will mostly make them wet, but they won't shrink much.

2) This isn't the supermarket.

[middle_earth]

alright. So i was thinking of throwing them in the hot water for a few hours n' half way dry do a warm tumble dry. they came one wash n' safronized so won't shrink much anyways.

Think they'll still be too big that's why I wanna sell these.

or you guys think i should keep these and do that hot soak first then get them tailored?

[Opie]

Middle_earth, what you don't seem to get is that when you want to sell jeans outside of the supermarket you need to use the line "shameless plug".

And remember never to bump a second page thread with your sale.

That should keep you safe further on from iamstarwars and other meanies.

do all momotaros have a pink inseam , id love a pair but i dont realy like the pink thread

[mattcain]

^ Im pretty sure they all do but I could be wrong. Or at least all the ones at BIG have the pink thread.

[salaami]

[Flash]

[salaami]

[Flash]

[salaami]

i always need more denim! i'm joining the denime contest soon, and i'd love some more evis denim to repair them with(when the time comes)...

[beatle]

[Flash]

ive cut the whole coinpocket section out because i know you put some searious abuse on that area ill send the denim later in the week, theres a postal strike here.

[Lendo]

not sure if mine are natural indigo or not:

"Dye had been used more than the average synthetic indigo advanced pure-indigo dyeing system."

???

[Flash]

its just they seem pretty stuborn , i know thats a basic feature of momotaro jeans but the shade of indigo looks different , thanks lendo

[Lendo]

i'm planning on joining the denime contest ASAP, that's why the shameless charity drive is going on(see denime contest thread):

this is a sickup, give me your fucking$$$!! yeah, i take euros too! denimes or die bitch...

i'm bound to wear a hole in them sooner or later,so so extra vintage evis denim is perfect. i LOVE the denim flash sent last time. who would turn down a gift of evis scraps?

So, the BIG says the 701s are "slightly sanforized" and will shrink about an inch in the waist. Does that mean, after washing, they will stretch beyond one inch in the waist?

[Flash]

we need evo pics of momotaro

[rockon99]

^^ seconded - plus my question... hahaha

[wahwho11]

BIG has restock on all momos. They'll probably stretch around 1 inch beyond waist. All denim stretches.

[salaami]

we need evo pics of momotaro

yes, it's really a shama how much momotaro gets no real sufu love. never any evo pics. somebody, please! something tells me they fade dope as shit,too.

[rockon99]

sounds like a plan.... momotaro is my next pair. havent bought any good jeans in forever.

[givemefive]

I just ordered a pair from BiG. I really wish they'd step up and model their jeans. These pictures are from momotaro's website

0701

[wahwho11]

love momo's shirts. actually like the stripes..

[nixon]

Blah, restocked after I ordered a different pair of jeans! I was looking at some 0703s for a long time, I really like the paint on the pocket and the fit sounded pretty good.

[Lendo]

i'm holding out a little while longer before i get mine a hot wash. the taxi job is definitely accelerating the fading on them.

if i've got some time over the weekend i'll get some good macro's of some of the better details.

[premiumsqueezed]

Damn. Not used to seeing this hue on jeans. That's pretty crazy. And you can tell it took a long ass time, and a beating to get it to fade like that. Damn. And it's still darker than most jeans. Damn. I really want a pair.

I'm not sure. It can't be too long. The pocket thread and crotch are 100% intact.

or if it is super long...

or they fixed it all before posting pictures
