Hemp open-collar shirt, high density (grass-dyed)
100% hemp yarn is used for the warp and weft. Because it is a finer count than regular hemp fabric, it has a denser weave and a more refined appearance. Hemp is a strong fiber, but over time it gradually becomes more comfortable against the skin, allowing you to enjoy the change in texture from linen to cotton. The cool feel characteristic of hemp persists even after repeated washing, making it comfortable to wear even in the middle of summer. For more information on the history of hemp cloth, please see the article by Shinichiro Yoshida, director of the Early Modern Linen Research Institute , and for more details on the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax, please see the article by Boeken .
The shirt is proposed as a piece of clothing that makes up modern ethnic clothing. While the construction follows the rules of Western clothing, the design has been stripped down as much as possible, with the pattern being based on functionality. Specifically, the sleeve caps are tucked in and the bottom sleeves are set higher to ensure freedom of movement around the arms, while the back yoke is tucked in rather than gathered, ensuring freedom of movement in the back. It is a basic silhouette that will become a new standard. The buttons are made from compressed cotton, so they can be dyed when garment dyed.
