SH-69M
Large hemp shirt (mud dyed)
100% hemp threads are used for the warp and weft. Hemp is a strong fibre, but as it ages it gradually becomes more comfortable against the skin, and you can enjoy the change in texture from hemp to cotton-like. 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 Modern Linen Research Institute, for the history of hemp cloth, and to Boeken's article for details on the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax.
The shirt is proposed as a Western clothing 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 movement around the arms, and the yoke on the back is tucked in rather than gathered to allow movement in the back. An oversized, relaxed silhouette.
*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 fibre 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 sharinbai and mordanted with mud. Avoid using with light-coloured items, wash alone with neutral detergent and dry in the shade. Threads, stiffness, and mud particles that come out during washing will gradually settle. Because this is a product dye, the colour and size of each item may vary slightly.
