The OD+MJ "Ochazome" Sashiko Pants

Left - Slim Straight (0205) silhouette, Right - Narrow Tapered (0105) silhouette

Kicking off F/W strong with some fire threads we pieced together with our fam over at Momotaro, we once again seek inspiration from a cultural icon of Japan in the form of Japanese Green Tea, or お茶 (Ocha) in Japanese. Having gone back and forth multiple times with Momotaro in the hopes of coming up with a new Sashiko project for quite some time now, it was love at first sight when we first set our eyes on the original garment dyed fabric sample infused with this beautiful hue, pairing perfectly with the heavyweight Sashiko weave. A limited run of these pants will be restocking in Momotaro's Narrow Tapered (0105) and Slim Straight (0205) cuts.

The OD+MJ "Ochazome" Sashiko Pants

Entirely constructed and dyed in Okayama, this Sashiko fabric starts out as a natural hue, which is then garment dyed to achieve the rich beige/chino color it retains. Due to the tedious dyeing process, only a very limited production run of these pants is able to be produced. Getting into the details, we also opted to have the Momotaro Kamon (Crest) Jacquard pocket bags garment dyed in Kakishibu to complete the color match of the light brown hue of the fabric face.
Not passing on the opportunity to inject a little Indigo love into this project, the Tochigi Cowhide leather sourced custom OD+MJ leather waistband patch, has been vat-dyed to retain a deep Indigo color which should patina beautifully in tandem with the Sashiko fabric.
  • The Narrow Tapered Cut

    Sleek aesthetic and room in the right areas, the Narrow Tapered cut gives you the best of both worlds.
    Easily the most popular cut in Momotaro's lineup, this silhouette has a lengthier set of rises and slightly larger thigh compared to Momotaro's Slim cut offerings.

  • The Slim Straight Cut

    Anti-taper Denimheads, this is the cut for you. Without deviating into the wide-boi aesthetic, Momotaro's 0205 cut keeps things sleek by keeping the rises small and maintaining a straight but slim leg profile.
    One of the more versatile cuts in Momotaro's lineup, this model will work well with any outfit. Whether you are looking to keep it casual with a pair of sneakers and crisp white tee, or go full Americana with a trucker jacket, this model will provide you total flexibility.
