17/-ROUND SHAPE DYED TEE "curriculum"
Regular price ¥18,700
DETAILS
As the title "curriculum" suggests, this graphic T-shirt visualizes the accumulation of handicraft and thought as a "system of learning." With craftsmanship as the theme for the SS season, it expresses the accumulation of senses, experiences, and processes as a circular diagram. This garment embodies the philosophy of affirming the process of trial and error and incompleteness itself, rather than presenting perfection or a correct answer.
Material
Made from thick count open-end yarn (air-spun yarn), typically used for casual wear. The rough texture, reminiscent of American culture, has been reinterpreted using Japanese-made fabric. It features the lightness and dry texture unique to 17/-ounce jersey.
Processing
The product dyeing process is carried out in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, renowned for its world-class techniques. By carefully repeating the washing process after dyeing, a natural color unevenness and profound texture, similar to vintage clothing, is achieved. This painstaking process gives the fabric softness and character.
Silhouette
Features a round body specification using traditional circular knitting machines. The seamless side construction provides a comfortable fit with minimal stress and a natural drape. It has a relaxed silhouette with ample room around the shoulders and body.
Graphic
The text arranged in a circular pattern consists of keywords representing fragments of manual work and thought, such as "MANUAL WORK," "REMAKE," and "DECONSTRUCTION OF COMMUNITY." It diagrammatically represents the continuous process of deconstruction and reconstruction, treating the craftsman's process and philosophy as a curriculum, or learning process.
Background Story
This T-shirt was born from the fusion of American material aesthetics, Japanese knitting and dyeing techniques, and the craftsman's philosophy. It transcends cultures, eras, and processes to be compiled as a single product. With repeated wear, its texture will further improve, and it will approach completion over time.
