"The New Standard Set For A Higher Standard!"
Tokuno Blue (特濃蓝) in Japanese means “Ultra-Dark Indigo.” To create this 8oz peach-colored selvedge denim, Momotaro used standard long-fibre Zimbabwe cotton for the warp (exterior) and extra-long-fibre, hand-picked Zimbabwe cotton for the weft (interior). The fabric is then slowly and tightly woven on vintage denim looms. This process gives the denim a smooth hand feel while revealing subtle, uneven textures beneath the surface. To achieve the remarkable depth of indigo known as Tokuno Blue, Momotaro dyed the yarn over 25 times—significantly more than most denim brands—resulting in an exceptionally rich and saturated indigo tone.
Design-wise, we love the additional bar-tack stitching on all pockets, which adds extra durability. Fitting-wise, we do like the classic regular fit, which is not too loose nor too slim.
