Fade of the Day – Momotaro 0705TN (20 Months, 10 Washes)

It’s time again for our Fade of The Day. We don’t have much info on this pair of Momotaro 0705TN, and in fact, we aren’t even sure of the owner’s name. What we do know is the pair looks pretty sweet, so let’s check them out.

While these pictures might not win any awards, they do shine a light on just how much indigo has faded away – a lot. These jeans are now in that sweet spot in which Momotaro’s signature electric blue fades begin to really pop. The pair has been worn hard and that electric blue is visible nearly everywhere, especially in the areas of heavy distress.

Wish we could tell you what it took to get the pair this far, but here’s to hoping the owner resubmits fresh images in another 20 months as an update (this time with all the details).
