Ha, I saw this pop up and thought 'Wow, QBN has a denim thread'.. then quickly realized I posted here 3 years ago. So I guess I'll just use this as my denim journal.
Update to my denim status:
The Momotaro 0701s from my previous post ended up being worn almost every day until a month ago. Probably washed them a dozen times. I had them repaired twice for crotch blowouts. But they look and feel so nice. They were starting to get holes in random places (wallet pocket, etc) so I decided to get my next pair and keep those as a backup.
I just purchased a pair of ONI 546zr (20oz) and the denim is insane. These are so thick that I feel like I'm wearing armor made of denim. You can see some pictures (not me) here: https://imgur.com/a/Znagi
Here's a detail of the denim:
I really love the history and craftsmanship of Japanese denim - and also seeing how the denim fades over time.
