A work-inspired shirt jacket that brings together a range of processing techniques.
Designed somewhere between a coverall and a work shirt, the pattern is shaped to open easily as a light outer layer while still feeling balanced when worn. Special attention is also given to how the back looks, creating a strong presence while respecting the practical roots of workwear. By applying many processing steps to durable cotton chino fabric, we aimed to create a unique mood that differs from vintage garments. Starting from the base color, we repeatedly faded and layered the tones to build depth, forming rich unevenness and soft gradations. While the processing leaves a bold character on the surface, it also brings out the natural, simple texture of cotton.
We hope you can feel the unique character—something familiar yet new—made possible through the handwork of skilled craftsmen, an icon of ANCELLM.
