The Slub Sashiko Denim is a lightweight Japanese denim made with big slub yarns woven in on the surface of the denim to create the appearance of sashiko-style stitches. The irregular thickness and pitch of the slub yarns travelling horizontally add a distinctive hand-made feel to this fabric.
The Kimono shirt, crafted as a modern tribute to the rich heritage of Japan, draws its design from the traditional Japanese noragi, historically worn by laborers. This light jacket seamlessly blends cultural authenticity with contemporary fashion.
Impeccably crafted, shirt's also beautifully designed; refined, comfortable and true-to-size ~ a spinal cord injury's left me unable to use pockets anymore, so I was casting about for something stylish, but a little more straightforward than a conventional coat and this kimono fills the bill
Right down to the draw string waist - Can't do buttons anymore and even snaps are a bit tricky, so the simple sash is a godsend. I need more clothes like this!
But it was the gorgeous Japanese denim that initially caught my eye. Pattern's subtle but very striking simultaneously. A 7 oz denim, it's soft, yet very sturdy. I'll have this one for years , years to come
