We finally got the Momotaro Jeans – Europe Label samples after the jeans traveled from one country to another ever since we last laid our eyes on them in Copenhagen. Nevertheless, now we have them and as promised we took some detailed pictures of the designs that give you an even better idea of what the collection is all about.

Do note that the pictures are intentionally left “huge” to give you a better idea of the details.

So without further due, let’s get this show started. Do note that I’m not short of words with the line, I just let the pictures do the talking.

Original 13 oz Melange (Top Gray) Denim Momotaro Jeans

The painted Japan Blue text.

Coin pocket with hidden selvedge lining.

The buttons are similar to what you see with Vintage Label Momotaro Jeans.

The white contrast stitching looks pretty nice on the gray denim fabric.

Red selvedge.

Momotaro’s Original pink inseam stitching with gold/tobacco and white chain stitching.

Momotaro’s signature stitching on the right back pocket in contrast white.

Plain left back pocket with embossed pocket lines and hidden rivets. I wonder how these babies will fade?

Original 15 oz Grand Blue Denim Momotaro Jeans

The grand blue denim made with warp yarn of black and indigo cotton yarn. When you look closely, you can see the black yarn.

The painted Japan Blue text.

The signature stitching on the back pocket is dark blue that matches the fabric.

The white selvedge with red line adds contrast to the grand blue color.

Coin pocket with hidden red selvedge.

The continuous stitching  over the leather patch on the top of the waistline is just one of the details that differs the hand crafted Vintage jeans from the rest.

Original 15 oz Japan Blue Momotaro Jeans

The Japan Blue jeans are similar to Vintage Label in color and style. The fabric however is softer and lighter 15 oz compared to 15.7 oz.

The tab is optional addition. The signature contrast stitching on the back pocket reminds one of the copper label. The way to describe the Japan Blue jeans is that they’re kind of light raw Vintage Label jeans with the Copper Label stitching.

The jeans have a leather patch just like the raw models in the Europe Label.

The pink inseam stitching.

The hidden selvedge coin pocket.

The painted Japan Blue text and blue pocket fabrics are the features carried by the Europe Label.

The selvedge of choice for the Europe Collection is white with red line.

The chain stitching just like all of the sewing done on Momotaro Jeans is all hand made finished with utmost care.

Original 14 oz Washed Deep Blue Momotaro Jeans

The washed Europe Label jeans have paper patch just like the First Battle Label.

The jeans have an aged look inspired by worn and torn old jeans.

The embossed belt loops have been distressed by hand.

The hidden rivets and pocket lines are distressed and the back pockets have a well faded color.

The whiskers have been manually distressed to add into the worn look and feel.

The jeans don’t just feature washing, but the “smudge” marks as well.

The selvedge is different from the raw lines of the Europe Label with brighter yellowish line.

Blue pocket fabric.

Distressed coin pocket. I have actually seen worn naturally faded jeans that have a coin pocket just like this one.

So here we have it. Hope these pictures give an even better idea of what the Europe Collection is all about. The Japan Made original denim that doesn’t leave anyone cold. Needless to say we’ve been doing plenty of denim comparison this weekend and I really love the fact that although the quality of denim is naturally the same, the denim is totally different from every other label from the brand.

We are looking forward to hearing what do you think so participate in the poll, comment on the blog, send an email, call us, your feedback is highly valued.

Also should you want to see more pictures or some specific pics of the jeans, just let us know and we’ll take and post those pictures.

Those interested to get these jeans, we are starting to take pre-orders so email us your size and style preference and once the jeans are released, we’ll make sure you get yours among first in the world. Do note that the release schedule for the jeans is dependent on the number of orders. At this moment the targeted release is in July 2010.

A lot to digest here, so we’ll continue later. We’ve got more stuff coming up next week so stay tuned. That’s all for now, I’m off to chill for a minute before next week’s rushing. Take it easy everyone. Peace.

I know I am feeling tad bit better today.

I did not post anything yesterday due to the fact that I stayed away from my notebook (and my iPhone for the most of the day). But I will make it up to you today with a special sneak preview.

During the Copenhagen Fashion Week I gave a hint of something new coming from the Momotaro Jeans brand. Exclusive news courtesy of Nordic Denim House and Momotaro Jeans! What I can tell you now is that we introduced a preview line of Momotaro Jeans Europe Label, Europe Collection or Euro Line (dear child has many names) during the Terminal-2 fashion fair. Below are some sneak preview pictures of the line.

Some of you might have spotted few hints I dropped on the blog regarding the line.

As the title says, this here is a sneak preview but more will follow. I will post more details and information on the line soon. But all I will say at this point is that this is an exclusive line. Any questions can be directed to info(a)nordicdenimhouse.com.

Hope your day has been sunny and bright and if not, keep your head up and don’t get fed up. Do your time, don’t let the time do you. Like Pimp C put it, heh. My Copper G003-MB update (iPhone edition) is coming up tomorrow but until then stay safe, I’m out. Peace…
