Tightly twisted hemp cotton skirt

Takashima Chijimi, which is produced in Takashima, Shiga Prefecture, is made using a unique method that strongly twists the weft threads of natural fibers and fixes the texture by applying a unique process. This fabric is based on traditional Takashima Chijimi, but uses hemp threads for the warp and organic cotton threads for the weft, achieving higher strength and comfort. The texture and stretchiness created by the twisted threads, rather than the stretch caused by synthetic fibers, will not be lost even after long-term wear. It does not cling to the skin, so it is very cool and can be worn for a long time.

The body is made of straight lines based on the structure of traditional hakama, while tucks are added in the front and back to create a sense of volume. Some of the lines are cut vertically to prevent leftover fabric. The waist string is made of original string made in Uji, Kyoto, and all of the sewing, including the overlock machine, is made of cotton thread.

Handling Instructions

*As this item uses strong twisted yarn, it may stretch when worn, but if you adjust the size after washing and hang it out to dry, it will return to its original size. Please consider the knots and unevenness of the yarn, which are unique to natural materials, as part of the fabric's appearance. Please be careful as pulling on the knots in the yarn may cause it to break. *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. (Dark Navy, Charcoal Gray, Black)
