We adopt “miyatsu-guchi” from kimono for comfortable to wear
Even it’ s cool looks, uncomfortable wear is not good design for us.We adopt “miyatsu-guchi” , it’ s not closed part between sleeve and underarm. It’ s traditional style of kimono for women and children.Why is this function not with mens kimono? Some people said this function is to prevent the occurring of the out of shape, especially for children moving around and curvy women so traditional mens KIMONO doesn’t have this “miyatsu-guchi” .We adopt it on our jacket because it makes air passages, soft and comfortable. “Miyatsu-guchi” increases in range of motion because of it and also take out the air.
By reduce the cloth for the armpit, rough and uncomfortable feeling, shape of shoulder looks slim.This jacket support you in formal situation by comfortable to wear.
Your portable belongings in 3 pockets
Kimono doesn’t have any pocket but we live in busy days so what we do first is design the pocket to be suitable to modern lifestyle. The one is on left chest. it’ s according to european formal style and design to put handkerchief in. This function makes jacket good to formal occasion. There are inner pocket on each side.We design for both business scene, put a card case or smartphone in , and daily life, put a music player and earphone in.
