PRISTINE's Summer Collection Unveiled
In an exceptional blend of tradition and innovation,
PRISTINE, the sustainable lifestyle brand from
Avantii Co., Ltd., headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, is launching a new collection that embodies the spirit of refreshing summer attire. On June 6th, PRISTINE introduced its latest offerings,
the Ramey Sucker Series and
Washi Boile Series, all crafted from organic cotton mixed with washi and linen fabrics.
A Craftsmanship Heritage
The new series showcases the traditional craftsmanship of Takashima City in Shiga Prefecture, known for its high-quality linen textiles. By leveraging the raw texture and healthy benefits of undyed organic cotton, PRISTINE has created clothing that is light, breathable, and comfortable—essential for the hot days ahead. The combination of washi and linen gives these garments exceptional ventilation and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring that wearers stay cool even in challenging heat.
Ramey Sucker Series: A New Summer Staple
One highlight is the
Ramey Sucker Series, featuring a refreshing touch thanks to the alternating weave of
ramie (a type of linen) and fine organic cotton. This collection presents a stylish striped pattern with a sheer finish that enhances the visual appeal. The cotton portion is designed with a chiri-men weave, creating a fine surface texture that prevents cling, ensuring a truly enjoyable wearing experience.
