Great quality and very authentic Japanese Jacket

One of a kind

Very impressive piece, it’s a striking blue, and was clearly made with great care. It works well as a light coat, something to use in place of a denim jacket. I anticipate a time many years from now when I can look on this coat and appreciate the wabi sabi that age has bestowed on it.

Katazome

The first step in creating the design is making a paper pattern.
Generally, we do the pattern stenciling by hand.
Once the paper pattern is made, it can be used repeatedly.
The dyeing technique using the pattern is called katazome ("kata" meaning pattern and "zome" meaning "dyeing").

Aizome (Indigo dyeing)

In aizome, or indigo dyeing, fabric is placed in a large jar that is specifically used to store indigo. But before this process, milk squeezed from soybeans is spread on the fabric (a step called kureire) to make the dyeing process easier, which is all carefully done by hand.
