The design is based on a Japanese shirt from the early 1900s, and is made using old Japanese linen cloth.
The shirt the design is based on is from CHOYA SHIRT, a long-established shirt brand founded in 1887, and the shirt the design is based on is one from the early 1900s. The design at the front, the cut at the hem, and the gathers at the back give it a very nice feel.
The fabric used is linen kimono, which was woven and worn during the Meiji and Taisho periods.
It has a unique texture with the sway and movement that only linen can provide, and the fabric is woven with thin threads, making it a little see-through and at first glance it looks light, but it has a nice look with the original atmosphere of the fabric. There is something special about the texture of the fabric, as if it were falling under the weight of the fabric.
Two pieces of kimono with stains are used, and the fabric is sewn together using spots that are clean or inconspicuous to create one shirt. Please enjoy the switching of fabrics as seen on the front body as part of the design.
When making a shirt, the sleeves are hand-sewn as an afterthought, and the buttonholes are also hand-sewn. It may be a little more comfortable to wear and the buttons may not fit, but I would like you to see it as a specification that is more suitable for old fabrics and enjoy the warmth of handicraft that cannot be produced by a machine.
The buttons are old French shell buttons, and the buttons are attached with bird's feet. By shifting the center of gravity, one side floats, making it easier to attach.This is a meaningful way to attach it, but please enjoy it as one of the small points that we paid attention to.
Cotton thread is used to match the vintage atmosphere.
Compared to today's prosperous times, the fabrics that were born in harsh times when people were poor and had nothing else but the world was completely different, have a unique atmosphere that can only be created at that time even if you wanted to, and I think that Japanese fabrics are wonderful fabrics that are made by people and can be proud of to the world. Please feel the fabric that has been reborn as a shirt .
Why not try incorporating good old things into your daily life that are not found in modern times?
