This garment has been entirely woven and made in our atelier in Japan's Tamura-city in the Fukushima Prefecture. While almost 50 km from the Fukushima nuclear disaster of 2011, parts of the Tamura-city were evacuated for over a year. It gives us great pleasure to work with these highly skilled partners and help them in our own small way with their economic recovery. Limited edition in number and imbued with many great 'unseen details' (see Performance), the quality and craftsmanship of the shirts cannot be overstated.
Performance
Woven and made in Japan, this is a shirt carrying the kind of unseen details that contribute to a high-quality, long-lasting garment of integrity.
Single needle French side seams with shaped side gussets supply reinforcement and function, while a four-piece back split yoke adds impeccable movement and flexibility for a well-tailored shirt. Further details include six pleats at cuff for added movement and comfort, while the Mother of Pearl buttons in the two-button cuff are aesthetic perfection.
