MAN-TLE Boat Shirt Strata Wax
MAN-TLE Boat Shirt Strata Wax, loose cut outerwear shirtjacket made in a Japanese wax cloth developed by MAN-TLE in Australia.
Wide-cut jacket with elliptical pocket openings and raglan sleeves. Pointed collar, slot buttons threaded onto seat belt tape, straight hem. Made in Japan. 100% cotton with a paraffin wax coating. Yarn spun and dyed in Japan using cotton grown in Australia and the USA. Woven in Shizouka, then coated and baked in paraffin wax in Fukui. This original MAN–TLE cloth, MT-Wax, is designed to reveal new sound, colour, and texture over time. At first heavyweight and naturally stiff, it softens, fades, and changes form with washing and wear, becoming personal to the body it covers. Woven for MAN–TLE in Shizuoka, Japan.
