Cantata" reminds us of the truth that good clothes are so simple.
In other words, I think it is a matter of weaving together wonderful materials with the handcraftsmanship of Japan's proud artisans, but simple does not mean easy, of course.
As fall finally arrives, we would like to introduce some of the items from Cantata that will go on sale this weekend.
----------------
First is the buffalo check shirt , which you will want to wear in early fall.
Each ¥82,500
Size:44/46/48
These items have a rugged image no matter how far they go, but in the hands of "Cantata," they are top of the line and supreme.
It is said that the reason why buffalo check shirts, which have been made for more than 150 years, are red and black, blue and black, green and black, etc., is because the color scheme was designed to stand out so that hunters would not misfire on each other when hunting.
Also, the original, or vintage, is wool 100%, but to be honest, it is over-spec for everyday wear.
So, this time it is a hybrid of wool and cotton.
They have mixed a lot of cotton to reduce the negative aspects of wool such as prickliness, heaviness, and bounciness, and to allow it to fade with wear and fraying and sunburn.
It is positioned as a blouson-like shirt worn over a shirt.
It will be sold exclusively at three stores: the directly managed "cliché," "Silver and Gold" in Umeda, Osaka , and "Kink chikaramachi lab (kink chikaramachi lab." in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture.
--------
Next is a knit vest produced as a special order for "1LDK.
Two colors, "ELEPHANT" and "BEAR," have been specially ordered to match the "PANDA" and "GIRAFFE" inline colors.
Each color is a cross between two different colored yarns: "ELEPHANT" is ice gray and brownish gray, and "BEAR" is dark brown and light brown.
I don't dislike the use of animal names as color names . Come to think of it, OSX on the Mac also had animal names in its early days.
Each ¥90,200
SIZE:44/46
The shape is based on a crew-neck knit that has been developed in-line , and an original silhouette is created.
The neck is slightly higher and the sleeves are wider , allowing the shirt collar to fit snugly around the neck and making it easy to put on undergarments.
The yarn of interest is white cashmere from Mongolia, Super 140's wool , soft and firm to the touch.
Yarns of 100% white cashmere from Mongolia and 70% wool/cashmere 30% Super 140's are twisted to a final blend of 65% cashmere and 35% wool.
The tawny texture of cashmere and the elasticity of wool are an excellent match.
Below is a message from the brand.
Wool-based materials have their own restorative properties, so please follow the instructions and try washing. The wool will blow out and become fluffy and soft.
By crossing two different colored yarns, the color change that is created when the yarns mix after passing through water is a pleasure that can only be experienced with this special-order color.
By having it washed a few times, you will understand why the yarn is two colors and the fabric is mixed with wool.
So, that was a great introduction to some great items for the fall season of clothing cravings.
I would like people to be able to hold Cantata items in their hands and feel their textures and atmospheres firsthand before deciding what they want to buy.
All items will go on sale on Saturday, October 1.
