IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo

Our classic work shirt, made from a 21oz Jacquard loom woven cloth with Sashiko thread stitching. Dating back to the 17th century, Sashiko is a traditional form of Japanese folk embroidery used for both decorative and functional reinforcement of fabrics. With a translation meaning “little stabs”, the technique involves a running stitch which creates aesthetically pleasing geometric patterns in a piece of cloth, simultaneously reinforcing the weave for added durability.

Where traditionally this would be stitched into a fabric by hand, the complex capabilities of a Jacquard loom allow for a Sashiko-style stitch to be intertwined at the weaving stage. The result is a soft, yet substantial cloth that’s packed full of character, with the intricate Sashiko thread adding delicate flourishes of colour amid the deep indigo weave.

[Buckeye]

I’m sorry, did you say -TWENTY ONE- oz work shirt?

[T4920]

At 21oz, is this the heaviest fabric IH has ever used for a shirt?

[JerkStore]

I'd love to see how this compares with the SS 14oz Sashiko.

[Buckeye]

@JerkStore it probably eats it alive, buttons and all

[Mizmazzle]

There she is!!!!

[Peterldavey]

The pick of the season for me!

[Matt]

Whoa.

[WhiskeySandwich]

yup, i was late to the train in realizing that this was a 21oz work shirt.... and "woah" indeed

[Kasi]

May consider this one.

21oz

[tody]

@T4920 I guess so - that weight is usually jacket material?

[Buckeye]

9Lives: Makes 18oz sashiko fabric
Haraki-San: Hold my sake

(as an aside, very excited to see what IH does with 9Lives in the future)

[T4920]

DMT Check UHF?

[Dchill]

Will snaps be an option?

[tody]

@Dchill said in IHSH-397-IND - Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo:

Will snaps be an option?

Not possible on a work shirt - button holes are present.

[Dchill]

My enthusiasm got ahead of my common sense

[Matt]

This is the way.

[Tago Mago]

Gonna have to check this one out in person, too

[jdwaid]

Hell yes

[Davids_denim]

This is gonna be the one for sure.
