JELADO x First Arrow's Limited Edition Tatanka Vest Smoke Black [CB71528]

We collaborated with FIRST ARROW'S on the Tatanka Vest, the highlight of this collection.
We added special silver buttons to our finest Chimayo vest to create the best Native American-inspired item available in Japan. Please give it a try.
Through numerous detailed discussions, we created a 25mm concho button with an appropriate R-shape, showcasing a raised relief more challenging than engraving, expressing "radiation = light" and infinite power.
The material used is 950 Britannia silver, which has a higher purity than 925 sterling silver.

TATANKA is the Indian name of a Native American warrior.
This time, we made it as the main item for this spring, using the same material as the jacket.
For many years, we have been visiting fabric merchants and production areas to create Chimayo fabric from before the 1940s, and it is finally complete.
The composition is 77% wool, 14% cotton, and 9% nylon, reproducing a gritty, hand-woven feel while maintaining strength.
Jacquard looms are characterized by their ability to express complex patterns through weaving.
Among them, all-over jacquard looms, which can express patterns across the entire width of the fabric, are rare.
They can produce highly fashionable patterns and designs.
According to the fabric merchant handling this fabric, only one loom capable of weaving this vest is currently operating in Japan, making this fabric very rare.
The raw material uses original yarn that has been carefully selected and blended.
The final finishing process for fabric production has been specially designed for this original material, with the initial fabric washing stage performed at a slower speed than usual.
Instead of napping, a tweed finish is applied to preserve the texture of the yarn, and a resin treatment is added to create a resilient, elastic feel to the touch, achieving a dry fabric feel and a crisp texture.
This Chimayo vest is tailored into a gilet-type vest with a cut hem, similar to the new SALEM VEST.
It's an item that can change your impression just by pairing it with chambray, denim, or even a thermal shirt.
