                Ended up passing on the whall SR9, and picked up a pair of vintage label 0701… Really impressed with Momo's, still plan to add whalls to my collection but would like to get something a bit closer to 15 oz do will hold out for future ande surprises...

                  My new iPhone/ smartphone pouch. Its just a gimmick type of thing, but I like it and its pretty useful.

                  I got the one with the Peach artwork.

                    Has anyone experience with Momo's new Natural Tapered-cut? (e.g. the 0605-18)

                        So I see that Momotaro is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a few special edition models.  Anyone pick up a pair?

                            I’m not really a fan of Momotaro’s jeans but I have taken a shine to their military style shirts in recent years. I’m tempted by this selvedge chino shirt [emoji851]

                              Sorry to wake a sleepy thread but I just picked up the Momo heavy green Kersey shirt from Rivet & Hide, and it's absolutely amazing.  Can't recommend it enough:

                              Blanket-line all the things!!!

                                I feel that on some deep conceptual level there is enormous difference between Iron Heart and Momotaro. The number of posts and their cadence in this thread underscores that both crowds do not hang much together. But since my denim story started with Momotaro (forgive me fellow IH lovers, this pink stitching is so cool and contemporary!) I feel that their latest move to make the Gold Label available outside Japan is significant enough to mention regardless of what may be the opinion about Hisao Manabe thig vs Shinichi Haraki thing 😃

                                  WOW! what a welcome change. $3,400 though  ???
                                  They were $2000 in Japan a few years ago.

                                    @JerkStore They were $2000 14 years ago (see

                                    here). Wonder if they're charging more for online made to measure. Even though they're not for me, I really appreciate that they're doing craft, artisanal stuff like this. It reminds me of Samurai's denim made with cotton that they grew themselves. It's stuff that doesn't add value to the product in the traditional sense, but its heckin cool.

                                          @Walery-Smirnoff do you have a Youtube channel? I often stumble across videos of a Russian man showing off his denim collection. I don't understand a word, but I enjoy watching. 😆

                                            Yes, you are right. There are several channels for jeans fans on Russian YouTube. I watch them all the time too. There is a guy's channel in the west. Channel name Fjorde. His name is Sergei. I suspect he is also Russian. His accent gives him away. I watch everything related to Japanese denim.
