TAIGA TAKAHASHI LOT.601 TEE SHIRT (3COL)

T-shirt is one of the clothing items that define America.

Our study into the manufacturing process of T-shirt, originally developed as an underwear for civil and military uniforms, revealed how it derives from the rational manufacturing principle typical of America. The simplest design – the tube-shaped fabric, cut in three parts for the neck and arms and attached with sleeves – has absolutely no room for wastefulness. While it looks similar to what we daily wear today, it is something totally different in nature. Details like shoulders without slopes, boatneck-like neckline, and double neck ribbing. to prevent stretching are signatures of designs from that time

The tubular jersey cotton was manufactured by a hanging knitting machine in Wakayama. The use of American cotton achieves a dry, unique texture in the fabric. Hanging knitting machines were introduced to Japan during Taishoera (1912 – 1926). The one in Wakayama is now the world’s only machine from that period still in operation. While it lacks efficiency because it can only knit a meter per hour, the slow process creates unique texture with moderate unevenness as if the surrounding air is woven into the texture. MUD DYED BROWN and INDIGO are carefully dyed one by one using "mud dye" and "indigo dye” the traditional dyeing technique of Amami Oshima Island. None of them look the same, as all of them are one of a kind.
