Relaxing wear made from a traditional Japanese material, "Washi" Using threads made from Japanese paper called "washi", we have commercialized a summer-oriented samue for the 21st century that is a fusion of tradition and new technology. Using washi yarn fibers has made the garment extremely light and airy as if the wearer is not wearing it at all. The uneven texture of the traditional Japanese "shijira-ori" fabric, which reduces contact with the skin, provides a light and refreshing feel, making this samue ideal for spending time in the hot Japanese summers. Washi yarn fiber is also an environmentally friendly fiber that is biodegradable. This gem is made in Japan in pursuit of the best quality, environmentally friendly, made-in-Japan style. 55% Cotton, 45% Washi( Japanese paper) Fabric thickness: Very thin (0.32mm) Recommended season: Summer Machine washable (with a net) Made in Japan Shipping weight: 445g Specifications Jacket: One left front pocket.
