What’s good everyone?

My personal Momotaro project just reached six month milestone and they’re still getting better by the day. Our friend Tim has been wearing his G003-MB Momotaro Jeans about the same time and I have posted his project updates every now and then.

Interesting enough his project has certain similarities with mine, one of which is the pocket fabric ripping. Although my pocket fabric rip posted last week is still unattended Tim got his fixed mixing the original Momotaro fabric with some Aachen style fabric.

This oughta keep the pocket intact.

The leather patch on Tim’s Copper Label jeans seems to be tanning faster than mine. This is of course affected by where and how you wash the jeans. As previously discussed, the denim aging is much affected by the washing qualities. For instance jeans worn and washed in Japan usually have a totally different outcome from that in Finland etc.

The cuffs are usually among the first parts of the jeans that start to experience the wear and tear. In this case both cuffs seem to be wearing and tearing in unison.

The unraveled hidden rivet / back pocket corner seems to have been fixed as well.

It’s the patchwork and fixes that really make your jeans yours. There is no other pair alike since your jeans wear in according to your lifestyle.

For instance, you can see the Momotaro stitching on the left back pocket is showing signs of wear which is possibly due to wallet carried in this particular back pocket.

You can see whiskering developing on both legs.

Good look. That’s all I have to share with this edition but as you know we’re back on the blog before you know it. Enjoy the sun if it’s sunny at your neck of the woods and hey if it happens to be rainy, enjoy the rain. It’s all good. I’m out, peace!
