A combination of traditional and conventional, warmth, and free movement: A fashion of contrasts.
The stitching of angled squares and rectangles of this Sayagata sashiko pattern will pleasantly overwhelm you with its intricacy. It took artisan Arai several days to stitch this in the traditional Japanese pattern on this conventional indigo chan-chanko jacket. Chan-chanko is originally a term used to describe a traditional sleeveless kimono vest. Artisan Arai has made it a perfect wearable for warmth with a touch of its thickness on the outside and a soft lining on the inside from a traditional black and grey stripped kimono fabric. With time, this special piece will change its color and gradually fit to the shape of your body.
