Characteristics of silk patch & belt loop of Wa-Denim

In the Tango region, in Kyoto Prefecture, silk that is produced here makes up about 70% of all kimono silk made in Japan, and is known widely as Tango Chirimen.

Tango Chirimen has an uneven surface, with indents known as shibo, which are seen as being a mark of high quality. These are made due to the thread used and special weaving process. The fabric is supple and rich in colour, which when combined with Kyo Yuzen and other dyeing methods is used as a fabric for kimonos.

Wa-Denim uses Tango Chirimen that has been dyed using the special process known as Kyo Yuzen for original patterns.

 

 

Kyo Yuzen, A special dyeing method that is representative of kimono fabric dyeing in Kyoto.

Kyo Yuzen has a long history of over 300 years, and is a beloved traditional Japanese craft, with it being one of the 3 main yuzen dyeing techniques in Japan. It is known for its pattern dyeing, and is a world famous dyeing technique.

It is able to produce various elegant and beautiful patterns, and at the time when nobles and aristocrats lived in Kyoto, it was treasured by these upper classes.

Wa-Denim looks to help preserve this beautiful dyeing technique while not being too gaudy, and we have selected a traditional ringed pattern and redesigned the pattern so that it works well in both business and casual settings, mixing with any various shirts and so on.

 

 

The shippo-mon which is written as 七宝紋 in Japanese, is a long used pattern that features overlapping and intertwined circles. It is said that the pattern is unending spreading in all four directions.

It also refers to the Buddhist 7 (七 in Japanese) treasures (宝 in Japanese), gold, silver lapis lazuli, quartz, coral, agate, and giant clam shell.

Another interpretation of the design is that of fate, with all the circles connected, which is said to be a good omen of happiness, harmony, and good connections between others. It is seen by others to remind others of the value of the connection between others and that they have the same value as the previously mentioned seven treasures.

For this pair of jeans, using the shippo-mon pattern as a base with the red circle found in our logo (that is a stylised version of 和) incoorporated to create a new shippo-mon pattern, we hope that they help to bring good new connections whenever you're wearing them.
