Hailing from Kojima, the denim capital of the world, MOMOTARO JEANS embodies the pinnacle of textile craftsmanship. Their creed? "Made by hand without compromise." The brand utilizes the prestigious Zimbabwe cotton, renowned for its long-staple fiber, yielding a fabric that is at once robust, dense, and incredibly soft once broken in.
Instantly recognizable by their two white "Going to Battle" stripes painted on the back pocket, these jeans are dyed in an ultra-deep indigo, engineered to develop an exceptional personal patina (the "fading") over time. From the selvedge weaving on vintage shuttle looms to the signature pink stitching (a poetic nod to the fisherman of the folkloric tale), every detail stands as a testament to unparalleled perfectionism.
About this selection
Momotaro Jeans was born in Kojima, in Okayama Prefecture, the birthplace of Japanese denim. In this town where textile know-how has been passed down for generations, the brand has become one of the world's benchmarks for selvedge jeans, admired by enthusiasts for the quality of its fabrics and the care given to every detail.
Momotaro Jeans' DNA rests on denim woven slowly on vintage shuttle looms, natural indigo dyes and highly precise artisanal construction. The white stripes hand-painted on the pockets have become the brand's signature. Beyond jeans, Momotaro applies the same standards to pieces inspired by the Japanese workwear wardrobe, such as sashiko, a traditional reinforcing embroidery technique.
Our Momotaro Jeans men's selection brings together the overdyed Sashiko jacket, a statement piece that perfectly illustrates Japanese craftsmanship, the indigo Yarn Dyed Pocket Tee, yarn-dyed for a deep colour that evolves with washing, and the khaki Westpoint slim shorts, cut from sturdy cotton. Pieces designed to last and patinate over time.
At Actuel B, we offer a selection of Momotaro Jeans for men in our boutiques in Avignon and Arles as well as on our website, with delivery in France and internationally. Each piece is presented by teams trained in the brand's world, with the personalised advice that defines our approach to multi-brand luxury.
