Manually created ripples

October 13, 2022

Hi, this is Shohei.

Focusing on lines around us, Ishibashi formed ripples by wool yarns on sweatshirts.

Ripples on the lake

For black one, I feel like it expresses ripples on the lake in midnight.

On the other hand, it is like expressing the same scenery but different time like right before sunset.

I guess you all can find different scenery on them even though Ishibashi has his own inspiration like art.

Style sample

*171cm, wears size M

It looks strong but it's not hard to coordinate because of the monochrome color scheme.

The sleeves and the back parts are made of French terry fabric and it's comfortable just like sweatshirts.

Slits on sides.

Preparation

I would like to show you some parts of the process.

The yarns are manually placed by our production team. It took about 2 hours for 1 piece!! This kind of time-consuming process cannot be replaced by machines...

Fixed with tapes.

Stitched down, and being sent to a quilting factory.

They stitched with water soluble sheets so that they can be quilted by machine. After quilted, they are soaked to be shrunk so that not to be shrunk when you wash them.

If you are interested in the further process, please come to our store.

Thank you!
