Mostly known for their $2000 jeans, Momotaro Jeans, recently dropped their Vintage Label – making it their fifth label after Momotaro Jeans Gold Label, Momotaro Jeans Copper Label, Momotaro Jeans Red Label and Momotaro Jeans Blue Label. While each label does a fine job specializing in Japanese denim on their own right (The Gold Label jeans are rare and take up to a year to make, and the Red Labels are more for daily wear), the Vintage Label presents their first foray into raw denim. Like all Momotaro jeans, this collection is crafted at the famed Rampuya denim mill using traditional Edo Period techniques (hand weaving and dyeing techniques), passed down through the generations. Details: 15.7 oz. raw shrink to fit selvage denim, natural deep blue indigo, 100% Zimbabwe cotton and “made by hand without compromise”. For now, the cuts are: Tight Straight and Slim Fit Straight. Available here.
