Momotaro - Page 159

Do any of you happen to have any info on the Momotaro European label?  From what I understand the Grand Indigos are part of that label.  I picked up a pair of http://r.ebay.com/CjzrQv from Ebay and was interested in seeing if anyone else had any experience with this model.  It seems like it just might be exactly the same as Grand Indigos but with white weft.

i have the 0705sp, the top block is quite snug and I can barely button them

will it stretch with wear? I only tried it on to see how it fits, can't get pic @work now

Have you already soaked them or were they a one-wash model? If they're not sanforized, then there's not a lot of hope of them ever fitting.

 it's the one-wash model, yep sanforized.

i guess i'll take pics in 10hours from now...not qoing to wear em until next year, so...if its not gonna work

i'll have to part with em :(

Personally, I've never seen the point of getting denim so tight you can't button it. It's one thing w/ APC, but Momotaro is notorious for not being stretch prone.

i bought 2 pair with one being smaller size

the waist is okay i can still button them, just the front/back rise

the thigh well maybe a bit more room would be better

do you wear them with slim shirts tucked in?  from memory there is a slight man camel toe :S

i guess overall the top block will loosen?

I only have a nudie for reference, and this is my first pair MIJ denim

the nudie stretched out prolly an inch and has been a comfortable compared to new

although the back rise was too long for my liking, it measures about 15~16in compared to 0705sp about 13.75in

the front rise is about the same the nudie being 11in, and momo 10.5in

just got a set 0200sp momo/japan blue colab in size 30. Could not button the top button at first but after two hours I managed to get it up. Been wearing them around the house in hopes of stretching them out for a week but not much luck. Really hope they loosen up.

This is only my second pair of "raw" denim, other pair being N&F Skinny Guy LHT in size 31, which have loosened up more than I assumed(bought a week earlier)
Wondering if I should keep with the 0200sp or ditch them while I can and size up one.
