Studio D'Artisan Type II Denim Jacket
18oz "Amami Dorozome" Selvedge Denim
Studio D’Artisan marks its 45th anniversary with a double indigo and “Dorozome”-dyed Type II. Crafted from an 18oz indigo-warp, indigo-weft selvedge denim, each jacket is then hand-overdyed on Japan’s Amami Oshima island using natural mud pigments.
The result is a rich blend of dark earthy browns atop a deep indigo base—an almost-black finish impossible to recreate with synthetic dyes. Over time, the Dorozome top coat will fade to reveal the indigo tones beneath. This is a stunning interplay of colour and craft.
SP-117 "Ai-Sa" Selvedge Denim Jeans
15oz Sakura Selvedge, Straight Fit
“Ai-Sa” or “Ai-Sakura” refers to the unique blend of natural indigo and cherry blossom dyes used to colour this 15oz denim. The weft is dyed with pigments derived from the bark of Japanese cherry blossom trees, while the warp is rope-dyed with natural indigo. The result is a striking azure-to-indigo blue jean with subtle hints of plum red on the underside. Available in a classic, mid-rise, straight-leg fit.
Ishikawa-dai Loopwheel Sweatshirt
Reverse Weave, Navy
These yarns for these heavyweight sweaters from Studio D’Artisan are produced on the historic Ishikawa spinning machine—the oldest of its kind, dating back to 1953.
At 70 over years old, the Ishikawa’s slow, clockwork-like mechanics aerate the yarn while maintaining minimal knit tension. This hands-on, time-consuming endeavour produces a luxuriously plump fabric with a hand-knit texture.
With their reverse weave, loop-wheeled construction and double-needle stitching, these sweaters are built to endure the rigours of daily wear for years to come—made to be worn into the ground.
