Description

Boro is a traditional Japanese folk fabric, originally a garment always seen on thrifty farmers and fishermen.

Due to the poverty of the working people, linen is generally used to make clothes, but linen is not as comfortable as cotton. People sew small pieces of cotton cloth into the lining of clothes or use them for repairs. This kind of fabric is continuously spliced and repaired from discarded cotton fabrics in the process of being passed down from generation to generation. It is like the Japanese version of American patchwork. It is often stitched together by hundreds of different indigo-dyed fabrics with rough needles and threads, but it has a sense of mutual fusion. The historical value, cultural value and artistic value contained in this traditional Japanese folk fabric make it an indispensable part of the world's clothing culture.

The five kinds of patchwork on the neckline of the Taoist robe are all Japanese fabrics, which guarantees the maximum effect of BORO. The neckline is interspersed with various difficult hand-stitching, embroidery, washing, threading and other processes. There is no output, and what is left is feelings, which is completely the rhythm of artworks. The fabric is made of 10OZ INDIGO micro-elastic fabric, the whole garment is hand-washed, and the buttons are made of UNIONKNOPF to ensure the texture.

This product is indigo dyed by natural plants. It is a normal phenomenon to have color difference and fading after repeated artificial dyeing, and it is not a quality problem. It is recommended to hand wash and separate from other clothes. As this product is dyed with natural dyes, please avoid using detergents that contain bleach or fluorescent.

Indigo fading

The fading feature of indigo dye clothing is the embodiment of its naturalness, simplicity and sense of history, and is also a part of indigo dye culture. Although the fading of indigo-dyed clothing is one of its inevitable shortcomings, it is this fading feature that makes indigo-dyed clothing more unique and charming.
