Poetic summer world

A hatsutoki umbrella that is poetic and beautiful, and gives you the feeling of hometown warmth. The fascinating fabrics with patterns that capture the scenery that appears in your life make you look forward to the day when you put on an umbrella.

Presence like a single point

Named as Summer Wind, this pattern reminds me of a cloud of clouds in the blue sky, a deep blue sky at night in the moonlight, and a cool summer night breeze that carries the sounds of distant cities. I drew the image of the summer wind somewhere in oil pastel with vigor and put it into the textile. The big handle alone is powerful and entertains us.

Ladies' combined rain and rain umbrella The summer wind is a combined rain and rain umbrella that fully uses such hatsutoki-like fabric. The short fringe features crisp cotton-like summery texture. When you hold it up to the blue sky, you can enjoy your own summer. When not in use, carry the string through your wrist.

New possibilities for Banshu textiles

hatsutoki is a textile brand called Banshu textile. Banshu woven fabric is a thin woven fabric centered on cotton with a history of more than 200 years in the Kita-Harima district of Hyogo prefecture. It features a "dyed-dyed" method of weaving yarn and then weaving it. It is a production area with 80%. The pre-dyed fabric is dyed in various colors and then woven, so it has the characteristic that various patterns can be created, and it is specialized in the production of shirt fabrics centering on checks, stripes, borders and chambrays.
The textiles are often produced in large rivers and blessed with abundant water, but in Nishiwaki, where hatsutoki fabrics are born, the first-class river, Kakogawa, flows. The abundant water creates the beauty of the coloring of the fabric and brings out the color that can only be expressed in that area.

Hatsutoki was born from the idea that "I want to unravel the fabric of Banshu fabric and convey the feeling of touching it for the first time." In pursuit of the trend, we want to convey the wonderfulness of Banshu fabric that is comfortable to the skin, while telling us about our feelings, where and how they are made, in response to the current situation in which uniformized clothes overflow in the market. Shimada Weaving Co., Ltd., which manufactures hatsutoki, has been cooperating with craftsmen for dyeing (thread dyeing), diameter manufacturing (thread preparation), weaving (weaving), and finishing (texture) for 80 years in Banshu textile. , I just made "good things" together.

Leverage the technology cultivated in the production area

hatsutoki is made with specially delicate shades using thin threads, bold color expressions, and fabrics that stick to the texture, creating a soft texture that feels like cotton. Has been achieved. It is the 100th count single yarn that hatsutoki is good at that makes it possible to melt. Considering that the usual casual shirts are usually 40-60th, I think that you can imagine how thin and delicate 100th is. And because it is a "single yarn" that uses one thread, rather than a "twisted yarn" that is made by twisting two threads into one, the high technological strength of hatsutoki You can see. Since the 100th count single yarn is extremely fine, it cannot be dyed at any dyeing factory, and has unique technology established through long-term collaboration with local craftsmen.

Hatsutoki's manufacturing starts with the process of making one thread, but it means that "I want to make clothes with such an image, texture and design, so I will make cloth (thread) according to it". It is not designed to match the fabric, so the design matches the fabric and texture. That is exactly the strength of hatsutoki, and it is possible to proceed with the design and fabric of clothes at the same time.
