0201 Momotaro Jeans – Wear and tear project

by on Nov.26, 2010, under Fashion and style, Headlines

We’ve posted several wear and tear denim projects on our blog and we’re always glad to receive pics and details of your projects in order to share the projects with the rest of our readers. What’s great about these jeans that they always look different depending on the environment they have been worn in and the lifestyle of the wearer of course.

The latest pics we got from our friend Pasko, whose 0201 Vintage Label Momotaro Jeans have been worn every day for about half a year and the results are pretty awesome if you ask me.

The jeans were worn raw from the very beginning, no soaking nothing. The fit was right from early on, and when this is the case why not wear the jeans raw? The jeans get comfortable after a short while even if worn raw from the very beginning, I know this from experience. Naturally the soaking adjusts the jeans even more, but like Momotaro says it; “Wear them as you like”.

Once the wear and tear started the jeans have been soaked in rain several times, which I’m sure is something that happens to every denim project at some point. As you can see from the pics, the jeans have also been exposed to some dirt and mud which has resulted in pretty awesome fading.

The owner of the jeans mentioned that he is planning to wash the jeans at the end of the year. But until then, the rain soaks are all this pair of jeans is getting.

Awesome look in a relatively short time. I mean I have seen Vintage Label jeans worn for a year with much less wear and tear. We are planning to start a worldwide wear and tear project with different Momotaro Jeans worn in different countries/environments and the results documented on the blog weekly. If you are interested to participate, feel free to contact us for details. I’m out, peace.
