Attribute deep dive
We break down what drove each score so you can weigh trade-offs.
Quality Analysis 90/100
This denim is built to last, featuring an "exceptional durability" rating thanks to the use of 14oz Zimbabwe cotton selvedge denim, a heavyweight fabric that resists abrasion. Further enhancing its lifespan are construction details like custom engraved rivets and chain stitching on the hem, which secure critical stress points.
Comfort Assessment 50/100
This garment is likely to feel rigid and durable due to the 14oz weight and the description of a "classic rigid raw denim feel" made from 100% Zimbabwe cotton, which suggests a lack of stretch for movement. The "Tight Tapered" fit is also explicitly described as "very slim," which may restrict movement.
Sustainability Impact Not Available
This garment provides no specific sustainability indicators, such as certified organic or recycled materials, making it impossible to assess its environmental or social impact.

Nearly 7 years after its last appearance, Momotaro revives the famous Grand Indigo dye for this special collaboration denim. Known for its distinctive greencast color, the famous Grand Indigo dye was previously reserved for Momotaro's early special projects, before it was discontinued in 2013 for being too difficult to produce. This limited release revives the Grand Indigo dye and pairs it with an all-new 14oz Zimbabwe cotton selvedge denim that sports a classic rigid raw denim feel with exceptional durability. The jeans are equipped with special details pulled from prior collaborations, like the co-branded “bandana” style leather patch of 2018. Plus, the jeans sport contrasting "Going to Battle" stripes, and all-original Momotaro branding and detailing, including pink selvedge and inseam.
