The 0405 High Taper cuts a slim silhouette. It’s got a high rise, a roomy top block, and a pronounced taper from the knee down. It’s ideal for those looking for a slim fit with more generous thigh proportions. The 12oz denim used here is a custom weave made especially for Momotaro. It’s lightweight, soft, and will take very little time to break in but still promises some great fades with continued wear. Woven on vintage, low-tension looms using long staple Zimbabwe cotton, the jeans have a beautiful depth of character right off the bat.

Model wears 31w jeans. He is 6 ft 1.5" and weighs 78 kg / 185 cm & 170 lbs.
