Grey Asanoha Vintage Tsumugi Jacket XL
This jacket is cut extra long and has longer sleeves for men and taller people, which can be worn cuffed. The armholes and sleeves are also cut wider to accommodate larger sizes.
This cardigan style jacket is made from two vintage Tsumugi Kimono silks. Tsumugi 紬 yarns are made from irregular-shaped cocoons called Kuzumayu, which were once considered not fit for spinning even, fine silk threads. Compared to the shine of ordinary silk fabric, Tsumugi has a matte surface. Containing naturally formed slubs, Tsumugi yarns are durable, yet lightweight. Historically, Tsumugi was worn by farmers, samurai and merchants as casual wear. Although Tsumugi was once thought of as a sub-par textile, it is now highly sought after by Japanese Kimono connoisseurs.
This Kimono features the Asanoha motif. 麻の葉 read “Asa no ha” means leaf of hemp. It is an ancient Japanese motif that is common in textile design, ceramics as well as woodwork such as intricate Kumiko. As hemp is a strong plant that grows quickly, Asanoha represents resilience and growth.
This jacket is lined with vintage Kimono silk. Features two patch pockets and an extra wide collar that can be folded open for extra coverage.
