Description

The Studio D'Artisan 4616 Kasuri Black Beach Cloth Work Jacket is a limited collection piece produced in an exclusive Kasuri-dyed 16 oz. Japanese Double Woven Beach Cloth Woolen for a style-forward heritage collector's item. Kasuri dyeing methods date back to the Edo period in Japan, where resist-dyeing techniques were commonly used to create the natural white patterning associated with traditional Japanese garments and kimonos. Inspired by dockside workwear pieces from the early 1900s in the Northeastern United States, this beach cloth is double-jacquard-loomed with a Kasuri rain pattern of black and undyed cotton yarns for the face and woven into a heavily brushed wool fleece interior. This blend of antique techniques produces a wool/cotton blended cloth with multi-directional flexibility, exceptional comfort, durability, and a structured drape with a luxurious texture. The Studio D'Artisan Work Jacket is inspired by vintage Brown's Beach Cloth Jackets and features a classic fit that accommodates various body types. This jacket is elevated by refined details such as patch chest and lower front pockets, a point collar with a matte-black snapped placket, and black cotton twill trim on the placket, pockets, and hem. The SDA Kasuri Beach Cloth Work Jacket is finished with banded and felled seams and bartack reinforcements throughout, providing durable, old-world provenance that enables a journey into the ancient past through present styles, transported to you by a standout 40-year-old producer of heritage denim.
