We have created a long coat that is simple yet meticulously detailed, made from high-quality materials.
With a generous silhouette that offers a moderate presence and a beautiful drape, this is a coat you'll want to reach for again and again over time.

silhouette
The collar is designed with height and volume, and comes with an adjustable button.
When buttoned, it neatly becomes a stand collar, making it easy to pair with scarves or mufflers.
When the collar is open, it creates a natural drape, transforming into a shawl collar-like appearance. Since the fabric is away from the face, one notable point is that makeup transfer is less of a concern.

The shoulder and bust areas have ample room, and the luxurious use of fabric creates a beautiful drape.
Despite its oversized fit, when worn, it falls straight from the shoulders to the hem, making the silhouette more striking and looking neater than when it's on a hanger.

The front body features a semi-double design.
While it creates a beautiful line when buttoned, wearing it open gives a more relaxed look, like a shawl collar coat or a kaftan, due to the wider front opening.
Flat snap buttons (blind hooks) are used on the front, adding a modern touch.

The armholes are deep, creating a dolman sleeve-like silhouette where the body and sleeves appear integrated. The shoulder seams are less prominent, ensuring a stress-free wearing experience.
The term "dolman" originally comes from Turkish traditional clothing, characterized by a design that narrows towards the cuffs. While creating a simple and refined line, when viewed from the side, the sleeve pattern creates volume at the back, giving the back a unique silhouette.

material
The fabric is woven in Bishu, a wool producing region, and sewn at a nearby coat factory in Gifu.
This is a special material, carefully crafted with the accumulated techniques of the region.

Woven in a twill structure from 100% Bishu wool, this dense fabric features a texture that subtly catches the light.

The yarn used is worsted yarn, made by combing sheep's wool to remove short fibers and then aligning and twisting only the long fibers.
This fine and supple yarn is woven into a high-density double-weave gabardine. Furthermore, a impregnation process is applied to fill the gaps in the fabric with a chemical, resulting in a unique firmness and high durability, creating a substantial texture.

The lining is made of cupro twill with a distinct luster and twill weave. The woven texture gives the fabric a sense of depth.
This lining achieves a soft, body-conforming feel and drape that could not be achieved with 2/60 wool.
