Momochi no Kimochi: Jeans (Essay #8/22)


Here's a riddle.

'If chosen to match leg length,
hips don't fit,
and if matched to the waist
there's an excess at the legs,
What is it?'

That's right, the correct answer is 
jeans for Momochi. 
It's also written in the title (laughs).

With that said, cutting the cuffs off of jeans
is something I definitely have to do.
Some may be of the opinion that 
'You don't have to expressly go and get it cut, 
wouldn't folding it up be fine? ', 
but it's of a different scale. 

As it's quite a staggering length,  
I have to fold it so many times over 
that it stops the blood 
from going to my ankles, 
which grows into a big problem.

Before, girls with long legs 
would happily report 
that they'd finally found a store 
where they could get jeans 
with sizes that fit, 
which made me slightly irritated. 

You know, while there are stores 
that deal with jeans 
with built-for-foreigner lengths, 
I've never seen a store 
were they have Momochi versions. 

Can't there be a shop 
where they sell jeans 
for super Japanese physiques?
