・Using Chizimi Cotton 40/40 embossed fabric made by Sakao Orimono.
"40/40" means a fabric woven with 40 count yarns in the warp and 40 count yarns in the weft.
About the texture of fabric: around the thickness of a light shirt.
(The higher the yarn count, the finer the yarn and the thinner the fabric.)
・Hand-printed with Kyoto Stencil Yuzen.
※Pattern placement will vary from piece to piece due to the manufacturing process. Customers cannot specify the print.
※Since it is printed with Stencil Yuzen Dyeing (hand-printed), there may be some deviation in shape, but it is a feature of dyeing.
※Due to the nature of dyeing process, uneven dyeing and color fading may occur.
※Products with the same color name may vary slightly in color due to different materials.
※As a characteristic of Kyoto Stencil Yuzen Dyeing, the fabric is printed by repeating the stencil on a plain fabric. As a result, lines called "Katakuchi" may inevitably appear at places where the stencil joins.
＞About "Katakuchi"※The rib around the neck is made of Chizimi Cotton embossed fabric.
Be careful not to pull it forcibly because it is not a knit material.
If the neckline part stretches, it will return to its original condition after washing.
【About Dyeing of Chizimi Cotton】
When dyeing Chizimi Cotton, color may not fully penetrate into the deeper crepe texture of the fabric.
【About Chizimi Cotton】
・Produced in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture, with a long history dating back to the Edo period. Strongly twisted weft yarn creates a distinctive crepe texture that feels cool and breathable.
・Because the textured surface reduces contact with the skin and allows moisture to evaporate easily, it is said to lower the perceived temperature by about 2°C.
・Excellent sweat absorption, quick-drying, breathability, moisture absorption, and moisture release properties.
The embossed fabric used in this product has elasticity (rate: about 135%), making it easy to move in and comfortable to wear.
Due to emboss processing (an embossing process that gives uneven crepe-like pattern) , the frayed thread may be twisted and popped out. This is not a defect and can be fixed by cutting away the popped threads.
