      Anybody know if they make Momotaro red chambray in size 46 at all?  Or the 'Going to Battle' in a size 44?

      I might be able to pull off the 44 but have only ever seen that in the non-going to battle red chambray.  Am I just missing it somewhere?

        I got the 701.
        with the famous vintage denim 15,7oz.
        this denim is really really beautiful and unique.
        and the construction is absolutely perfect.
        every details is "perfectly finished".
        cheers.

        How much is the 0701 going to shrink and strecth back?

          unsanforized denim.
          be care. look at the thighs. yours and the 701´s one.
          the 701 is "agressive" at this part + has low rise. and will shrink seriously after the first washing machine.
          this denim do not stretch so much after that. really not. 1" a max. at the waist.
          i support u a lot to not size down with these.
          cheers.

              Thanks, I changed my mind, I dont want risk with the agressive tights of the 0701. I think ir will be safer to start with the 0201, would you go TTS with this as well?

                You might find this measurement table useful, as it contains one-wash measurements for the 201.

                  Does anyone have any sizing advice for their chambray workshirts?  I'm hesitant to go with my usual size 38 as, from what I can gather, they seem to be pretty tight across the chest.

                    ^on www.and-japan.com you can find good measurement charts.

                    ^^^I would go with your usual size in the 0201 cut.

                        It's about time this thread got some love.

                        These babies are a couple of years old, worn intermittently, washed 3 times (maybe 4?). Still one of my favourites.

                          I found this site Okayama Denim that is selling a good range of Momotaro and Japan Blue stuff direct from Japan. Good descriptions and sizing info, worth checking out!

                            i just received my 0201s. unfortunately the measurements shown by and-japan.com differ from the actual measurements.
                            I'm very tall (6'7" / 201cm) - basically it's all about the inseams! I need every cm!

                            0201 W36
                            pre-soak measurements and-japan: 39,5" / 100cm
                            pre-soak taken by me last evening: 38,5" / 97,8 cm
                            post-soak measuremants taken this morning: 36,2" / 92cm

                            i didn't take the pre-soak measurements in waist… i guess there's shrinkage about 1,5" after a soak.
                            I'm a tagged 36" (~215 lbs/ 98kg). It was definitately the right decision to purchase the jeans in 36!

                            THe fit is great! I comparison to other pics i've seen in this thread  the fit of my 0201s is more on the "Slim-Fit" side than expected.  I was  kind of shocked when i took the post-soak measurements. basically 36" inseam means "no cuff" but in this case I think i can go for an at least 1" cuff if i want to!  🙂

                                    Update of my 0400SP momo that i bought from Jay at BlueOwl. 🙂
                                    almost a year now,got them around december last year. been wearing them a lot,starting april this year I started to rotate them with the IHxMBB.
                                    This has been washed i think 3 times now. This latest pics is the pics before i wash the for the third time.





                                    I like how the leg part is getting hairy.maybe cause there's less contact there unlike my thighs.

                                      Any one care to chime in on the fit.  Feels a little snug.

                                        I like the fit, that's how I'd want it to fit me.  But, work shirts can be worn loose, so you could probably get away with an up-size too.  Nice shirt.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          I don't like snug fits in workshirts, so I'd go up a size, if possible.  That way, I'd have room to move and wouldn't worry about shrinking it when I wash it.  Momotaro shirts are really nice, but they are definitely not sized for the Western market.
