my new olive chambray momotaro shirt
Any one care to chime in on the fit. Feels a little snug.Joshjames

I like the fit, that's how I'd want it to fit me. But, work shirts can be worn loose, so you could probably get away with an up-size too. Nice shirt.

I don't like snug fits in workshirts, so I'd go up a size, if possible. That way, I'd have room to move and wouldn't worry about shrinking it when I wash it. Momotaro shirts are really nice, but they are definitely not sized for the Western market.

Here's some pics of my recent purchase.
Tag size 33 Momotaro 0901's. Pictures are post hot soak. They need to be hemmed. Still deciding if I like the regular straight look on the lower leg section. Your opinions are welcomed. I may want to go with something that has a slight taper.
I'm 182 pounds. 5 foot 10.
Cheers,
Z

I think that cut looks perfect on you. Also, if you cuff then so there's no break they'll look slimmer in the lower leg.

Thanks. I think I will leave some length for cuffing after the hemming. They are cuffed 2 times in the pics, so still need to be taken up a little.

I'd go with size 33 in both.
That said, the 0905 is designed to be more of a loose fit, so you could get a size 32 and they'll still work.

Hey Josh, what size is it, and what's your IH shirt size please mate? Love the olive! Btw, that's how I would want mine to fit, but a size up could float well too. Depends on functional or a pickin up chicks shirt

FYI, fantastic deal on Momotaro 702's right now. New at $180. They ship in March. You have to sign up to MassDrop though.

Hey Scotty. Sorry for the delayed response. This is a 40 I'm pretty sure I'd run a 42 next time. For a more relaxed fit. I don't have an IH shirt yet.

Cool josh thanks mate. I actually ended up getting the 44 because of the measurements. Turned out a local shop in the city stocked them and I tried on the 42 and it was perfect. So I washed and machine dried them to shirk em a tad. They are comfortable now but in hindsight the 42 would have been better with proper care washing.
