SH-40
Silk lining, cotton on the outside, high density shirt
SH-40 Silk-backed pongee with cotton on the front and high-density shirt fabric uses strong cotton threads used for canvas for the warp threads, and silk-spun pongee threads made by re-spinning waste cocoons and other parts of silk that cannot be used for thread making. This is an original material woven in a high density twill weave using an old-fashioned shuttle loom used for weaving canvas. Like denim, the surface has strong cotton warp threads, and the back has silk-spun pongee threads with a pleasant texture for the weft threads, making it a functional material. The shirt is proposed as a Western-style garment that constitutes modern ethnic clothing. The construction follows the rules of Western clothing, but the design has been stripped down as much as possible, and the pattern is made based on functionality. Specifically, the sleeve cap is tucked in and the bottom of the sleeve is set higher to allow for movement around the arms, and the yoke on the back is tucked in rather than gathered. The back of the fabric (usually the front of the fabric) is used on the body side of the stand collar, yoke, and cuffs, making it a specification that focuses on the feel of the fabric against the skin. All are hand sewn with Indian camel bone buttons.
*There are knots and unevenness in the threads that are unique to natural materials. This is because we place importance on texture and use raw materials with uneven fiber lengths, so please consider this as part of the look. Please be careful not to pull on the knots in the threads too hard, as this may cause the threads to break and create holes in the fabric.
*Dyed with Kishu Binchotan charcoal and pigments, there is a natural unevenness. To avoid color transfer, avoid combining with light-colored items and always wash separately. Color transfer will subside with use. Since it is product dyed, the color and size of each item will vary slightly. (Charcoal)
*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)
