100% cotton with a paraffin wax coating. Yarn spun and dyed in Japan using cotton grown in Australia and the USA. Woven in Shizouka, then coated and baked in paraffin wax in Fukui. This original MAN–TLE cloth, MT-Wax, is designed to reveal new sound, colour, and texture over time. At first heavyweight and naturally stiff, it softens, fades, and changes form with washing and wear, becoming personal to the body it covers. Woven for MAN–TLE in Shizuoka, Japan.
