YS Classic Big Shirt Wool Navy

YS Classic Big Shirt Wool Navy, relaxed fit big shirt that can be worn as an overshirt or light outer jacket.

This dress shirt is constructed with a three-dimensional pattern and has a classic style. While the pattern-making is elegant and typical of dress shirts, it features a dropped shoulder line, a wide body width, and a loose, relaxed size. It is a versatile item that can be a shirt or outerwear, depending on how it is mixed and matched.

It is an original striped material, reinterpreted using archive materials found in the warehouse of a historic machine shop in Bishu, with unique arrangements of blends and color gradients. The warp yarn is made of black dyed 2/48 wool, and the weft yarn of a different color with a subdued color density, resulting in a deep color. The herringbone structure based on a 2/2 twill weave is designed so that the colors of the warp and weft are mixed evenly, and the pattern emerges vaguely. The fabric is woven slowly on an old loom, resulting in a fabric with an uneven, dry, stiff, and unique texture. It has a unique presence, as if it were an antique, which current fabrics do not have. The tasteful aging process that accompanies the use of this fabric is enjoyable.

Yoko Sakamoto started her unisex brand in 2016. The designer emphasizes to bring the nature of the material to life in her clothing; designing clothing without interfering the original qualities and properties of the materials and the silhouette. She values actual wearing comfort while focusing on craftsmanship and manual procedures for designs, which result in her distinctive and unique style.

Having met Yoko personally in Tokyo in the Summer of 2024, it confirmed my feelings that her vision and values fully align with how I approach garments at Store Du Nord. Seeking a timeless elegance, working with traditional craftsmen and creating garments which elevate your persona.
