Hakama Pants 3 | Discover Japanese Enshu Sashiko
Beautiful sashiko fabric is used to create special flowing trousers that show off traditional patterns! In the process of making Japanese kimonos, various traditional fabrics and dyes are used, but in recent years, the use of these kimonos has been limited to special occasions. Furthermore, in order to wear a kimono properly, special skills are required. Because of this, using traditional Japanese fabric called Enshu sashiko, Tokyo Pouch has created a pair of pants that are easy to wear, while having a cool Asian style design.

Made using special sashiko woven cotton
Sashiko is a traditional Japanese handweaving technique, where the fabric is layered and then stitched together. This originally was done to improve the strength of the fabric, as well as provide warmth, and today, it is used for the garments that are used when practising Judo, Kendo, and other martial arts. Sashiko stitch is made by hand, but sashiko weaving is done using a loom and is a method of floating the weft and warp threads to weave a pattern.
Made using various local manufacturers
Using fabric that comes from Enshu in Shizuoka, the creators designs who are based in Tokyo, and the sewing techniques of a domestic sewing factory in Iwate, This is truly a made-in-Japan gem. The pants are sewn at a factory with high-technology equipment, that also handles outdoor garments and clothes for domestic high-end brands. First, a pattern is created with CAD, the fabric is cut, and ironed, and finally, it is carefully sewn.
