A Convenient Design that Adapts to Your Everyday Life
The neck tie can be easily adjusted even after it’s tied. Its simple design makes it easy to wear and take off, with no hassle, perfect for busy mornings. The round neckline pairs well with any outfit, offering versatility that complements a variety of collars.
The sleeves are designed for ease of movement with a traditional "mojiri-sleeve" style, commonly seen in garments worn by craftsmen, such as half-coats. To prevent the sleeves from falling during water-based tasks, the cuffs are gathered with elastic. Whether you're cooking or cleaning, this design ensures freedom of movement for all your household chores.
The pockets feature a sashiko fabric loop, perfect for hanging a hand towel or similar items. This thoughtful design ensures that a hand towel, which proves useful for tasks like cooking or laundry, is always within reach.
There are pockets on both sides, perfectly sized to hold your smartphone, keys, notes, or wallet. With its simple smock-like shape, this design allows you to head out for a quick errand or shopping without needing to change.
Made with natural materials suited to Japan's climate
The fabric used is a lightweight linen-cotton canvas that becomes softer and more beautifully toned with use. It offers excellent warmth retention and breathability, making it an ideal natural material for Japan’s four-season climate. To keep you cool even in hot kitchens, we selected a fabric with a slightly higher linen content.
