SH-50B

This shirt is made from deadstock Okazaki cotton that was given to us by Mr. Akio Tanaka, a dyer of authentic indigo dyeing in Kawaguchi, Saitama Prefecture. We focused on the functionality of the fabric, which was originally left for obi belts, and used it as a shirt. Because it is woven on an old shuttle loom, it has a texture that is almost like hand-woven. In addition, the weft threads are woven loosely, so it has natural stretchability. For the background of Okazaki cotton, please refer to Kero Kikaku's blog . The shirt is proposed as a Western clothing that constitutes modern ethnic clothing. The composition 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 on bare skin. The front placket is made of fabric selvedge to give it a hand-woven texture, and the buttons are all hand-sewn using thick white mother-of-pearl. Unlike the usual design, this item has a stand-up collar. This is a special order from cite' and corner.
