Releases from Samurai, Freenote Cloth, and Studio D’Artisan
This week, we’re releasing collectible craft that speaks to enthusiasts who primarily curate a wardrobe with select editions. Each piece in this assembly from Samurai, Freenote Cloth, and Studio D’Artisan is either a seasonal release, a commemorative craft, or an absolute rarity that will never be available again.
From innovative fabric developments to entirely new styles and intricate production methods, including dyeing and finishing, each of these garments tells a rich origin story designed to connect with your personal journey. Drawing inspiration from workwear, militaria, and midcentury moto clubs, this collection features fits and fabrics that offer a fresh perspective on nostalgia.
Studio D’Artisan
Studio D’Artisan offers a unique exploration of ancient weaving, dyeing, and texture techniques, which manifest in contemporary styles and will evolve for the future. The Army Noragi Sashiko Shirt and Dark Brown Dorozome Boro Sashiko Workshirt are crafted from single-production, hyper-rare woven cloths in two easily adaptable yet distinct pieces.
Freenote Cloth
Freenote Cloth delivers the heat and speed of the salt flats, raceways, and the place where rubber meets the ramp, with the Dean, Dayton, Midway, and Belford crafted from entirely proprietary fabrics. Designed with an adventurous spirit, every detail is carefully considered to create a casual, vintage, cool-style vibe for those with specific and discerning tastes.
Samurai
Samurai often crosses the line of reason into the extreme, starting with a “what if” and culminating in another exceedingly special style piece. Examining every aspect of fiber, yarn, dyeing, and patterning, the results showcase inspiration drawn from the past. Upon a brief inspection, the rarity becomes obvious. Featuring a couple of Work Shirts, a Camp Shirt, and Relaxed Tapered Denim, this selection exemplifies an approach that transforms the mundane into the extraordinary.
