This product is made entirely in Japan using 0.8mm thick calf leather, finished by one of the country's leading tanneries. Its bouncy, springy texture conforms easily to the body, and its relatively soft feel feels like it clings to the skin. While calf leather's pliable texture is offset by its distinctive wrinkle formation, resulting in large, wavy, three-dimensional wrinkles. This product utilizes a manufacturing technique that shrinks the leather through a garment dyeing process, but shrinks it only through washing, without dyeing. While retaining the brand's iconic presence, characterized by the ridged texture created by tumbling the product, this product is specialized for a stable fit thanks to the lack of color unevenness and the ease of shrinkage control.
This design is based on the Mao collar shirt, which has a clean stand-up collar, and combines it with the collar tab shape of a single rider's jacket. It's a stand-up collar shirt that can be said to be the prototype for a shirt that matches any style. With a front dot hook and eye fastening and no lining for a light and comfortable fit, it's perfect for wearing as a main piece or underneath a variety of jackets and outerwear, allowing you to fully enjoy the texture of the leather. It's a piece that can be added to your wardrobe for many seasons.
