Regain your peace of mind by wearing our special hanten This Sashiko-ori Samue-Style Hanten is dyed through a process called speck dyeing (also known as "mura-yarn dyeing") in Niigata Prefecture. Speck dyeing is a special technique in which threads are dyed one by one by Japanese artisans to express unevenness and blurring. The appeal of this technique is that it produces gentle colors with a natural and vintage look. This speck dyeing is combined with threads that blend with the ground color as a stitch weave, and a very elaborate and tasteful texture fabric is used for the front. The lining is made of cotton broadcloth with padding and tailored in the samue style, so it has a double-warm structure from the chest to the stomach area. We are sure that this hanten makes it a great gift for the winter season.
