Organic Cotton Gabardine Coat
A high-density twill fabric spun from organic brown and green cotton grown in the United States. Some of the sizing needed for weaving is natural starch, and the cloth is woven as densely as possible, giving it a firm, resilient hand. Flecks of brown and green cotton and cotton husks appear on the surface, for a natural look. The undyed "brown cotton" retains the colour of the raw cotton itself.
Almost every part apart from the hood follows a straight-line pattern, giving a very flat construction that, like a kimono, sits naturally on many body types. The placket and hem, where a separate piece is normally sewn on, are deliberately cut in a single piece for a simple design. When the hood is not worn, it folds flat against the body. The undyed "brown cotton" is finished with contrasting white stitching.
