"SAMURAI COTTON PROJECT"

SJST-SC02 - HENLEY T-SHIRT 

A t-shirt fabric made with an uneven #10 yarn spun in the same way as our 17oz “Zero” denim. The weight is 16oz.

Black bean color: The place where we grow our organic cotton is called Sasayama and it is also home to local black soybean production.

We’ve used the juice of these black beans (which is normally just thrown away) as a natural dye, resulting in a very unique, organic, and eco-friendly color.

"SAMURAI JEANS COTTON PROJECT - Nogami-San has his own cotton field in Hyogo prefecture and Sasayama, where he grows his natural organic cotton. 

The whole process is 100% made in Japan, from digging up the weeds into the soil, the growing of the cotton, the weaving, the dying and the sewing.

"It’s for the love of it. It’s not about money. In this one thing I want us to be unbeatable…to do something that nobody else is doing or has ever done.”
