Wear: Momotaro Denim's Vintage Collection

From a super-exclusive Japanese jeans-maker whose wares're normally $2,000/pair, Momo's new Vintage Label's a refreshingly less-pricey batch of selvage, all made from 100% Zimbabwe denim that's hand-woven and dyed (using techniques developed in 17th-Century Japan), then washed once in the Seto Sea; the all-indigo collection includes a handful of cuts like the Vintage Slim, Vintage Tight, and the "Going To Battle" Slim, featuring a Samurai Warring Stripe design on one back pocket, which they claim represents "Strength, Durability, and Honor", so next time someone challenges your character, you can just nobly point to your ass.
