SH-03
Khadi Shirt
The khadi used is hand-spun and hand-woven in West Bengal, India. For details on hand-spinning, please refer to the link to the outer fabric spinning and the blog of CALICO , the supplier. The unevenness created by hand-spinning and hand-weaving relatively short-fiber desi cotton gives it a texture like another skin, and is beautiful even when lit through. The occasional random borders are created by small changes in the yarn lot by handwork, and are also one of the characteristics. The shirt is proposed as a Western clothing that constitutes modern ethnic clothing. The construction follows the rules of Western clothing, but the design is stripped away as much as possible, and the pattern is made based on functionality. Specifically, the sleeve cap is tucked and the bottom of the sleeve is set high to ensure movement around the arms, and the yoke on the back is tucked rather than gathered to ensure movement in the back. In addition, instead of the adhesive interlining used in normal shirts, the outer fabric is fluffed, and all the sewing threads are cotton thread No. 30, which gives it a soft finish, so it can be worn comfortably even against bare skin. The placket is made using fabric selvedge to convey the texture of hand-woven fabric, and the buttons are all hand-sewn using thick freshwater pearl.
*Because we use hand-woven fabric, there are individual differences in size and texture. Please consider the weaving habits, knots in the thread, and pilling as part of the expression. As it is weaker than machine-woven fabric, please avoid excessive strain. We are also available to answer any questions you may have about care.
*Dyed in dark colors. To avoid color transfer, please avoid mixing with light colors. To prevent color fading, use a dry-cleaning detergent and dry in the shade. Due to post-production processing, the color and size of each item may vary slightly. (Dark navy/black)
