These exceptional jeans are crafted with silk yarn, elevating them to a level of sophistication and comfort that surpasses traditional denim.
Momotaro's exceptional jeans combine sophistication and comfort through the use of silk yarn in the weft, producing a denim fabric that radiates softness and luxury. The innovative incorporation of silk enhances comfort, providing a feeling akin to silk sleepwear, while the traditional craftsmanship and intricate details make these jeans a standout addition to your wardrobe.
The warp of these jeans is made from Zimbabwe cotton rope-dyed indigo yarn, expertly woven on a vintage shuttle loom, which adds a touch of timeless artistry to their construction. However, it is the weft that truly distinguishes these jeans—silk yarn is intricately woven in, providing an exquisitely smooth texture that only silk can deliver. The resulting denim fabric weighs 16oz while radiating softness and luxury, making it a one-of-a-kind addition to your wardrobe. Importantly, the silk incorporated in the weft guarantees a distinctive wearing experience. Due to silk's superior moisture absorption and quicker drying capabilities compared to cotton, these jeans ensure unmatched comfort, particularly during warmer months. The silk interior against your skin offers an indulgent sensation reminiscent of fine silk sleepwear.
Momotaro's natural tapered fit features a medium-high rise, a comfortable waistband, generous thighs, and a noticeable taper to a narrower leg opening, making them versatile enough to wear with both boots and sneakers. These jeans are adorned with exceptional details, including custom-engraved iron buttons, a branded indigo leather patch, and Momotaro's signature pink selvedge and inseam, all paying homage to the famous Momotaro folktale.
