YASHIKI Kanto Zip Polo (Winter) YSK-26SS-KN06 BLACK

Rice paddies with a thin layer of snow still remaining, and butterbur sprouts peeking out from between the snowflakes.
I envisioned a landscape that evokes the lingering traces of winter and the first signs of spring.
This is a relaxed-fit, zip-up polo shirt.
The subtle differences in the size of the small bumps and indentations in the center and sides of the garment represent rice paddies with patches of snow remaining, while the combination of triangles from the shoulders to the hem represents butterbur sprouts that herald the arrival of spring.
Using a technique called plating knitting, where different yarns are used for the front and back sides, and by changing the yarn color on the front and back, a two-color knitting technique was used to create a textured and layered look.
To create a soft, relaxed look with dropped shoulders when worn, YASHIKI has incorporated a classic kimono pattern as an homage to this design.
The cuffs feature the brand's iconic [Yagasuri] pattern.

YASHIKI is a Japanese knitwear brand.
Started in 2014.
We offer Japanese-made knitwear produced in the Ryomo region of northern Kanto, an area with a long history of thriving textile industries.
The landscapes and culture of Ishikawa Prefecture, the designer's hometown, played a significant role in the design.
The brand incorporates patterns and details that evoke the culture of their hometown, such as the Tedorigawa River and rural landscapes, into knitwear, expressing the scenes and local feel through simple yet elegant craftsmanship.
