This 5oz selvedge chambray is slowly and carefully woven on vintage shuttle looms from the early 1950s, at a historic mill in Japan’s Bitchu region. Crafted with slub yarns in both the warp and weft, it features a dry, textured hand and a distinctively vintage character. Over time, the indigo yarn reveals beautiful, unique fades—making each piece a canvas of personal history.
・Constructed with triple-needle stitching, a signature detail of classic work shirts, for durability and long-lasting wear.
・Features luxurious natural Takase shell buttons, adding a refined, high-end touch to this exclusive BIG JOHN original chambray shirt.
*Ibara City, located in the Bitchu area of Okayama Prefecture, is part of the "Sanbi region," alongside the Bingo area (including Fukuyama City, Hiroshima) and the Bizen area (eastern Okayama). This region is renowned for its thriving denim industry.
