Before CIGGYSHIRTS goes up
Share
Good evening, everyone.
I know I'm being persistent, but have you all had a chance to look at our spring catalog?
This time, we borrowed an antique shop to take some atmospheric model shots, so I hope it conveys a better sense of reality to everyone!
That's what I'm thinking!
I'd say it's a collection with quite a few highlights for me, as spring includes the flocky sweatshirt that sold out instantly, which I introduced recently, the special order rayon print, and now the chambray introduced today!
How much more can we put out?! From the approach to materials to the development of unique techniques.
We put a lot of effort into making various things.
Today, I'd like to reintroduce this!
Once the half-zip CIGGY SHIRTS arrive and are all in stock, I'd like to introduce them again properly, but for now, I'd like to talk in detail about just the material.
First, this chambray is a more heathered chambray, a special fabric where the thread color flickers, often called "goma-shio" (sesame salt). We created this fabric by cutting into a vintage shirt and analyzing it!
Our collection's BIG YANK chambray shirt
We cut the part secured with tape, just like with our Last Resort denim,
and investigated the thread thickness, twist shape, number of twists, and density to create a fabric as similar as possible.
We considered how to express this flickering of heathered yarn and the way slub yarn runs.
Although we intentionally arranged the color this time, I believe that as you wear it and wash it, and the color fades, you'll be able to experience an even closer flickering of the heathered yarn!
And since this heathered yarn, dyed with sulfur dye, is dyed 100% with sulfur dye so you can fully enjoy the fading, the aging process is something to look forward to.
Sulfur dyes are generally said to be quite difficult to match colors with, so they supposedly mix in some reactive dyes to adjust the color, but we intentionally skipped that step. So, I wonder if you'll be able to experience the same fast fading as with Last Resort?
I can only hope!
I'm waiting for the Ciggy Shirt this time...
It's a classic combination: a half-zip type with 41 Khaki, but I really want to wear it that way!
Next time the Ciggy Shirt arrives, I'd like to talk not only about the dye but also about the yarn, and discuss this cinnamon chambray fabric.
This is very easy to match, and as it ages, combined with the atmosphere of the processed metal buttons, I think it will develop an even better look!
We look forward to your orders lol
And the exhibition starts tomorrow!
Please look forward to the WEB exhibition on Thursday!!
