Product Insights

The Edwin Medium-Blue Aomori Jean Tapered Fit ($228 CAD) is a Japanese-made stretch denim jean in 11oz cotton-polyurethane that prioritizes comfort and shape retention, sacrificing heavyweight fades for instant wear and reusable shape after cold washes. Its uniform, fast-developing fades with softer creases are typical of lightweight stretch denim, requiring cold inside-out washing every 5-10 wears. The shade is deep medium blue (not dark-blue as sometimes described), and the 'Aomori' name refers to indigo color, not origin. Value-wise, it offers Japanese construction at a price between N&F and Momotaro.

Verified claims

Shape retention
Waist and seat recover after cold wash; tapered shape stays for multiple wears.
Denim tradeoff
Stretch denim sacrifices heavyweight fades for instant comfort and shape retention.
Value
At 228 CAD, it offers Japanese construction and lightweight stretch, priced between N&F ($198) and Momotaro ($300+).
Fade character
Uniform, fast-developing fades with softer creases, typical of lightweight stretch denim.
Care
Optimal fading requires cold inside-out washing every 5-10 wears, no softener, and air drying.
Material
11oz 98% cotton 2% polyurethane denim: comfortable wear with minimal bagging
Heritage
Japanese-made with a heritage of shuttle-loom and stonewashing innovations.
Shade accuracy
Shade is deep medium blue, not as dark as Dark-blue suggests.
Fade progression
Medium-blue wash develops high-contrast fades with wear and washing.
Name meaning
'Aomori' translates to 'blue forest,' a reference to indigo color, not origin.
Comfort
Eliminates break-in discomfort but fades are less pronounced than heavyweight raw denim.
Color accuracy
Listed color (Medium-Blue) conflicts with description (Dark-blue); name means blue forest, not origin.

Great Jeans

Brian B.

Perfect balance of fit and comfort - not too baggy but cut well enough to give some room, even with the fact that they're "tapered"
