MITTAN is based on the concept of "modern folk clothes".
Thread and fabric materials, exploration of dyeing, how to make and deliver, repair and dyeing. It is a brand that looks at the way clothes are made and how they should be, and makes clothes with a consistent thought. The clothes are also made without compromise to the details, and like tools, we make clothes that can be used for a long time.
We use Peruvian cotton typewriter fabric. Typewriter fabric is a plain weave fabric woven with high density using high-quality cotton threads with long and thin fibers. increase. Since the fluff has not been removed by gas firing, etc., it feels a little fuzzy at the beginning of use, but as you continue to use it, the fluff will fall off, and the texture of the fabric will collapse, giving it a glossy feel.
I tear and cut by hand without using scissors. Dozens of distorted fabrics are layered by hand, adjusted by hand, and sewn with multiple stitches using only cotton thread. The design is based on an attempt to create a bag that can be used for generations with cotton cloth. There are 3 pockets on the inside, and it is also reversible.
A cloth tote bag that can be treated and nurtured like leather. The use of fabrics, patterns, and sewing are meticulously crafted. It is a MITTAN-like bag that makes you think that there is nothing else that can be done with a cloth tote bag.

< MITTAN>
MITTAN proposes modern ethnic clothing based on the history of clothing and fabrics that remain in the world.
By reinterpreting the two-dimensional structure and combining it with the original functionality of natural materials, we aim to create long-lasting clothes that are not bound by the transient trends of the times.
・Production background
MITTAN mainly uses machine-woven textiles from Enshu, Banshu, and Bishu in Japan, as well as hand-woven textiles from Asian countries such as India and Laos.
As much as possible, designers go directly to the machine shop and work on original material development.
In addition, we use mainly cotton thread for sewing threads, and we use natural materials for accessories such as woven labels, quality labels, and buttons, and we sew at partner factories in Japan.
In addition to ordinary dyes, plants, indigo, insects, and minerals are used for dyeing, and the uneven transition of colors is also considered beautiful.
・Social responsibility
Since the establishment of the brand in 2013, we have continued to repair and re-dye it, and we have continued to develop standard products.
In addition, by continuing to convey the background from various aspects, we will bring back the clothes that have gone away mentally and physically to a more familiar existence and lead to continuous wear.
