Momotaro x Lightning Jacket

Momotaro X Lightning Jacket


 Momotaro Type 2 Denim Jacket LNG custom version from Momotaro most famous jacket model : 2105SP (Going to Battle Jacket). The jacket is  tight silhouette which is slim in arms & body but it have longer length than normal type 2 jacket so it looks more modern and easy for everyday use.Suit with all T-shirt.Use 15.7 oz selvage denim fabric as normal momotaro jeans under "Going to battle" line production.100 % Zimbabwe cotton with double pocket on both chest. Pre-shrunk (one wash) from Seto sea at Okayama coast thus it's ready to wear and fabric is good in holding color not easy to fade.

Here is a closer look to see what's difference between normal model 2105SP and LNG version.
LNG version make for celebrate when lightning magazine had made their 200th  issue.Limited only 100 ea were made. First and easy to notice is "Going to battle" flag (Two stripes painted on the left-hand : symbol of Japanese tradition representing honor & strength and now it's one of famous signature sign of Momotaro Jeans).Normal version  use white paint while LNG version use "red paint".



For LNG version also have logo "LNG" represent for Lightning Magazine paint in yellow on right chest.




LNG version also come with denim shopping bag with paint logo as below picture.
Closer look at deer leather patch inside. First picture is from normal version,second is from LNG version.
On LNG version it has stamped "LNG the 200TH Anniversary"


At end of button placket on LNG version it has lightning logo purpose to appear when you wear & all button up.The end of placket will spread out and show this logo. 


The last different for both is "Price" off-cause but if judge from above I think it's worth to pay more.


Custom engraved buttons featuring the Momotaro peach & peach tab on left chest are also seen in both version.

Another common thing for both version is they are use "Pink Selvage" (the common features of Momotaro Jeans). As you can see pink selvage is along the interior placket.The pink color represent for "Peach" that imply for Okayama & the peach in Momotaro (famous Japanese folklore story).This pink selvage also to prove that it woven with an old loom. Single button cuff, copper rivets.

Backside on both version have button to adjust if you want to loose fit or slim fit.
Here's come video review form Lightning Magazine.
