    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.

                          my new olive chambray momotaro shirt
                          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.

                                That's how I'd want mine to fit as well…

                                  Chest might be a tad too tight on you based on the pics

                                      Great fit, and If you can tie your boots without suffocation then it's spot on!
