    70% cotton / 30% linen high-density parachute cloth. This piece is first dyed in a tannin-rich dye bath made from the bark of local Teichiki wood, which then reacts to immersion in iron-rich mud, dorotetsu. This garment has undergone 25 cycles of Dorozome (mud-dyeing) to achieve depth of colour and gentle gradation. Please note that due to the hand-dyed nature of this cloth, slight irregularities in the finished colour may occur. Designed to evolve with washing, wear, and exposure to sunlight. Woven in Shizouka and hand-dyed by Kanai Kougei in Amami-Ōshima.
