SH-85

Soft hemp long shirt

The fabric is similar in thickness to standard hemp fabric, but the weave density is slightly tighter, and after weaving, the fabric is processed at a finishing factory in Shiga, softening the stiffness that is unique to hemp. It is characterized by the fact that it has the softness that normal plain weave hemp gets from wearing it for a long time. For the history of hemp cloth, see the article by Shinichiro Yoshida, director of the Institute of Modern Linen Research, and for the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax, see Boken's article. The width of the body is generous, and the design allows it to be worn as both a dress and a haori. The front part is a modified placket that is folded back like origami, and the design hides all buttons except the top button, giving it a minimalist impression. The collar has the appearance of a stand-up collar, but is characterized by a shape that follows the straight neckline of a kimono. The buttons are made of shells.

Handling Instructions

*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 in dark colors. Please avoid mixing with light colors to avoid color transfer. 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.
