SH-139DC

Short-sleeved hemp open-collar shirt (grass-dyed)

100% hemp yarn is used for the warp and weft. 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 that is characteristic of hemp persists even after repeated washing, making it comfortable to wear even in the middle of summer. Please refer to the article by Yoshida Shinichiro, Director of the Early Modern Linen Research Institute, for the history of hemp cloth, and the article by Boeken for details on the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax.

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, and 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 of freshwater pearl.

Handling Instructions

*Please understand that the knots, unevenness, and brushed texture that are unique to natural materials are part of the fabric's appearance. Be careful not to pull on the knots in the threads too hard, as this may cause holes or fraying. If pilling occurs, do not pull it out, but carefully remove it with scissors or something similar. *Dyed with dyes extracted from plants and insects, there is a natural unevenness. To avoid color transfer, avoid using it on light-colored items at first, and wash with a mild detergent before drying in the shade. Because it is product dyed, the color and size will vary slightly from item to item. (Dark Walnut, Dark Mugwort) *Dyed with natural indigo. The color will fade to a lighter shade with repeated use. Because there is a possibility of color transfer, avoid using it with light-colored items at first, and wash it with a neutral detergent before drying it in the shade. Each item will have slightly different color and size. (Natural Indigo & Charcoal) *Enjoy the unevenness of the plant dye and how it changes over time. To prevent color transfer due to friction, avoid using it with light-colored items, wash it separately with a neutral detergent, and dry it in the shade. Sweat and sunlight can cause discoloration, so please handle with care. (Persimmon Tannin & Bengala, Persimmon Tannin & Sumi Ink, Natural Indigo & Turmeric & Sumi Ink)
