Description

The Momotaro MMGJ0202 #002 Silk Denim Jacket is a modern luxury heritage piece for the style-forward collector, made from the rare 15 oz. Cotton x Silk 2.0 Selvedge Denim. This proprietary 3 x 2 vintage shuttle-loomed recipe uses hand-cultivated, long-staple Organic Zimbabwe Cotton for the 3 x warp and Peace Silk yarns for the 2 x weft. The result is a unique denim that's luxurious in finish and feel, with extreme durability that will evolve into a flexible, structured form. With a profoundly saturated Tokuno indigo rope-dyed cotton warp and grey silk weft over natural core yarns, this denim will fade with a layered, steely character through years of heavy wear. Inspired by the mid-century Type II, this jacket has plenty of refined elements that turn back the clock with a considered lens, like the point collar, pleated front body, and steel buttons for the front closure, adjustable button-back waist, and buttoned cuffs. Featuring a relaxed-classic fit, this jacket is suitable for a wide range of body types and is perfectly proportioned in length for modern and vintage style profiles. This Silk Denim Jacket features details elevated from vintage originals, such as the selvedge line reveal on the interior placket, buttoned flap-front patch chest pockets, side-seam welted hand pockets, concealed interior lower pockets, and is crafted with felled seams, steel rivets, bartack reinforcements, and chainstitched construction. Representing one of the most esteemed Japanese heritage producers, this Momotaro combines a rare proprietary fabric, precise craftsmanship, and refined reproduction with modern elements to yield a timeless mainstay in any wardrobe that is special when new and only gets better as it becomes one's own.
