WORKERS Lot 806XH, Full-Back, 14.7 oz, Indigo Raw Denim

For the first type, we made a rare full-back Type 1 denim jacket in size 46, which is large. It wasn't "we made it," but "we ended up making it." Originally, large denim jackets were made with narrow selvedge denim, resulting in a T-back design with a split in the back. The amount of fabric needed for one garment is called "yojaku" (fabric requirement), but we disregarded that and eliminated the split, creating a full-back. I used to wonder why original big-size jackets existed in full-back instead of T-back, and now I understand why. They were made by mistake. I learned this firsthand. However, once I made it, I realized that since there are no vertical stitches on the back, it doesn't rub uncomfortably. So, I will sell it because it's an excellent product in its own right. One size. Since it's raw fabric, unsanforized, and without anti-twist treatment, the product will be shipped after being one-washed and shrunk. The body width and shoulder width are wide, but the sleeve length has been shortened to prevent the sleeves from being too long for people with average Japanese body types. The indigo is WORKERS' standard "XH (Extra Heavy)" denim, made by replacing the weft yarn of a 7x7 (warp x weft) denim with a 6-count yarn. The black is a 7x7 (warp x weft). "WKS-MEM7" is a yarn made from 100% American medium-staple cotton from EMOT (Eastern Memphis Orleans Texas), spun with WORKERS' original unevenness. When we made our original denim, we wanted to know what kind of cotton old L-types used. So, we asked a Japanese cotton import trading company, and visited Memphis's grain majors, farms, and cotton sorting facilities. The most helpful was a veteran employee of a grain major. When asked, "What kind of cotton did denim fabric spinners like Cone Mills use in the past?", the answer was simply "blended American cotton." In the past, American cotton was cheaper to obtain than importing it from overseas. Furthermore, the reason for "blending" was for quality stability. Fiber length, cotton color, and the amount of remaining cotton husks. To ensure these were as "consistent every year" as possible, blending was more stable. If you specify a particular field or type of cotton, you'd be out of luck if a drought, flood, or pests prevented a harvest. That's why it was "blended American cotton from EMOT." So, WORKERS also uses EMOT cotton, and the unevenness of the yarn was mimicked by dissecting vintage clothing. That's WKS-MEM7. At that time, "American cotton EMOT 100% 7-count yarn" was not produced as an original by yarn manufacturers. When the yarn for over 1000 pairs of jeans was produced all at once, I was half hopeful and half afraid, wondering if we could really make and sell that much. Thanks to that, WORKERS' denim is highly regarded for its unique softness and comfort, and we've been able to continue production. Thank you so much for making it and buying it. 46 Bust: 66cm Shoulder width: 55cm Length: 65cm Sleeve length: 57cm Cuff width: 13cm Authentic replica wear born from an overwhelming pursuit of vintage clothing WORKERS is a men's wear manufacturer based in Okayama, focusing on workwear, traditional wear, and military wear.
