“Paper yarn" is also called "The Third Way of Manufacturing Fiber" because of its new manufacturing method. This yarn is ideal for summer clothing because, in addition to the lightness inherent in the paper, it is strong, fluff-free, and has excellent water absorbency and quick-drying properties. This jinbei is produced by weaving the yarn made with this new manufacturing method, while also using the traditional Japanese weaving technique called shijira-ori. Shijira-ori is a woven fabric with a unique uneven pattern. This feature reduces the area in contact with the skin when worn, improving breathability and preventing stickiness due to perspiration. This weaving technique developed because of the hot and humid summer climate in Japan. The lightweight fabric feels as if you are not wearing it. This is a piece that should be worn in the summer when even thin fabrics feel too heavy and troublesome. Enjoy a comfortable and cool summer in this unique jinbei! 55% Cotton, 45% Washi (Japanese paper) Fabric thickness: Very thin (0.32mm) Recommended season: Summer Machine washable (with a net) Made in Japan Item weight: 345g (Size L) Specifications Jacket: One left front pocket.

OJO+, a yarn made from paper, is produced by Oji Fibers, a Japanese company. Japan has long had the technology to make yarn from paper. Although the yarn was environmentally and skin-friendly, it was expensive and difficult to mass-produce. However, the company has developed a system to produce it using new technology. The raw material, Manila hemp, is a biodegradable material that grows quickly, absorbs carbon dioxide, and does not produce toxic substances when the yarn is incinerated. It is a next-generation fiber that is environmentally friendly. Video of this item Fabric Sample Buy this Fabric Sample Related Articles Samue and Jinbei: What Are Their Differences?
