0605-40SP "Going to Battle" 14.7oz Legacy Selvedge Denim - Natural Tapered

The 0605-40SP from MOMOTARO is made using the brand's 14.7oz Zimbabwe Cotton Denim in Legacy Blue. The fabric reproduces the indigo blue colour of pure Japanese jeans born about 50 years ago, and the colour fades to a refreshing blue that is worthy of being called "blue jeans". The fabric is surprisingly light and airy for its weight. The fabric has been one-washed for added softness and to unlock all that natural, hairy character. The overall result here is an immediately comfortable denim that will yield a more vintage-looking fade with continued wearing and washing. Loaded with signature MOMOTARO details, including the iconic battle stripes as well as pink selvedge and inseam, both of which serve as an homage to the peach in the original "Momotaro" folktale. The discharge printed "Going to Battle" stripes are a symbol of Japanese tradition representing honour and strength. The warrior stripes also represent the flag carried by "Momotaro" in the folklore story.

MOMOTARO's "Natural Tapered" fit is a roomy fit in the top block with a healthy taper from the knee down. The denim has a high rise, roomy thighs, and a strong taper.

Important Note: Every denim product will lose colour. This is due to the special indigo dying process. After several washes, the losing of colour will be less and will stop over time. Some helpful advise:

• When washing, close the zipper and fasten all buttons and always turn the jeans inside out. Wash separately. When drying, hang the jeans (preferabbly in shade) inside out and let the jeans dry naturally.
• Pay attention when you sit on light surfaces
• Be careful with wearing light clothes (i.e. underwear). Body warmth may cause denim to fade out
