Aishibu, the newest addition to Studio D'artisan's collection, showcases an intricate dyeing technique. The fabric is initially immersed in vibrant indigo blue and then layered with Kakishibu, a time-honored process. As the fabric ages, the Kakishibu pigment intensifies, thanks to the condensation and polymerization of tannin, its main component. Known for its use in Chinese herbal medicine, Kakishibu is believed to be effective in sterilizing and deodorizing. Aibushi Dyeing, a tradition passed down through generations, captures the essence of Japan's love for the ever-changing seasons and the fleeting beauty of nature. The resulting colors possess a captivating and profound allure, resonating with those who appreciate the artistry of time-honored craftsmanship.

Like many other Japanese garments, this sweatshirt runs a bit smaller in size compared to your regular American size. However, individual body types can vary, so, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.
