Description
A striking long-sleeve T-shirt featuring a dynamic split-dye combination of traditional Amami Oshima mud dye (Dorozome) and rich natural indigo (Aizome). Individually hand-dyed by skilled Japanese artisans, this piece embodies the quiet power and natural harmony of Japanese craft.
About the Craft (Dorozome & Aizome)
Rooted in over 1,300 years of tradition on Amami Oshima island, the rich earth tones and deep charcoal shades are created using local plant extracts (Techichi) and mineral-dense soil. This natural mud-dyeing process presents a depth of color and organic texture that modern synthetic dyes cannot replicate.

• Wash Separately: Wash individually from other items, especially during the first few washes, to prevent color bleeding.
• Detergent: Use neutral detergent or detergent free of fluorescent whitening agents and bleach.
• Drying: May shrink slightly after washing. Reshape and line dry in shade away from direct sunlight or strong light to prevent discoloration. Do NOT tumble dry.
• Moisture & Friction: Do not leave wet for extended periods. Sweat, rain, or friction may cause color transfer to light-colored garments.
• Ironing: Use a pressing cloth when ironing.
• Aging: Colors will naturally and gracefully soften over time with repeated washing.
