Description

The Momotaro MXLS1026 Work Shirt is a modern piece produced from a proprietary medium-weight, sanforized, and once-washed Japanese loomed Jacquard woven cloth using hand-cultivated, long-staple 100% Organic Zimbabwe Cotton. Fashioned to replicate boro patchwork in a three-dimensional cloth jacquard loomed using varied thicknesses of deeply indigo-dyed yarns, this piece will develop distinct fading patterns throughout the naturally textured weave. Using a work shirt pattern with a standard fit, this piece is perfectly proportioned in length to be worn untucked for modern, heritage-styled grit. The Work Shirt has plenty of refined elements that turn back the clock with a considered lens like the point collar, buttoned patch chest pockets, Japanese acetate mother-of-pearl buttons, and utilitarian construction details like button cuffs, internal felled chainstitched seams with inseam run-off, and bartack reinforcement throughout. Representing one of the most esteemed Japanese producers in heritage, this hardwearing Momotaro combines a rare propriety fabric, precise craftsmanship, and refined reproduction with modern elements to yield a timeless mainstay in any wardrobe that is special when new, and only gets better as it becomes one's own.
