Copper G003-MB – Weeks I & II
by Taavi Kuisma on Jan.23, 2010, under Headlines
Hi Y’all,
I’ve been flying around as if I had wings on my back. It’s all good though, I enjoy flying though it would be good to land at some point as if you fly for too long you’ll become rootless and it’ll be difficult to keep you feet on the ground. What I meant to say was that I have been just a bit preoccupied with a thing or two.
Nevertheless my Momotaro Jeans Copper Label G003-MB jeans have been with me the whole time. I have not gone to the extreme of wearing the jeans while sleeping, but other than that I’ve worn them all the time. Last time I promised you some fit pics and I stand behind my words, here you go (Pardon the camera phone quality and my scarf censoring the lovely Aki Hoshino on my shirt).
The fit is indeed a bit slimmer from the Vintage Label 0901 Jeans I was wearing last year. But still the jeans are awesome. Definitely softer in texture all because of the fine cotton used in making the jeans. Speaking of the production process, if you have not done so yet, check out our Media Centre for some videos of the production process of the Momotaro Jeans, the sewing bit shows the sewing of Copper Label jeans. Made by hand without compromise.
Back to the project, below some pics of the jeans in their current glory.
The front (forgot the belt into the picture)
And the back (no belt this time). Notice the stacks on the back of the knees, these should develop rather nicely in few months.
The seat is still pretty much in their original state although there has been some wear on the hidden rivets and the belt loop on the back. The back of the jeans is sure to fade more in the months to come, at least if the jeans are anything similar to the Vintage Label project. See I can’t help but to compare these jeans to my previous project. I need to let go, but what can I say, it’s difficult, heh.
I really love the leather patch on the Copper Label Momotaro Jeans. Simple, clean and just awesome. Also due to the pre-washed state of the jeans, every leather patch is pretty much different from one another.
Last I leave you with a picture of my belt in its current state, I can’t help but to appreciate the stubbornness of the belt. I was sure it would break within a year. It’s been already 1,5 years and it’s still going strong. Way to go belt!
That’s all for this edition of Copper G003-MB, keep checking our blog and our updates on other social media channels. Oh, and don’t forget our New Year’s Promotion and the upcoming KIKS TYO tees. We love you all now I’m getting back to my list of emails and things to do. Be easy and I’m out…
