- This special installment of Momotaro's original 15.7oz Vintage Label Selvedge Denim has been transformed through a sumi ink overdye to yield a dark black color. With a long history of use in Japan, sumi ink is the ink of choice for many fine artists thanks to its rich black color and thick texture. With wear, the jeans will fade to reveal the denim's original indigo color, creating a striking blue-black color with white undertones. Featuring iconic "Going to Battle" stripes and the brand's signature pink selvedge along the inner placket, both of which serve as homage to the original Momotaro folktale. Only at Blue Owl.
