A Unique Collaboration Between 039LAUNDRY and Kyoto Montsuki
For over a century, a spinning manufacturer has been dedicated to creating high-quality cotton yarns, and now, they have teamed up with the traditional dyeing house, Kyoto Montsuki. This partnership has birthed a limited-time collection of clothing that beautifully merges modern fashion with time-honored Japanese techniques.
The American Sea Island Cotton Series
The offerings include garments crafted from the exclusive American Sea Island Cotton, renowned for its luster, softness, and durability. The fabric is meticulously made using open-end yarn, which incorporates air flow to twist the cotton fibers. This process emphasizes the premium quality of the cotton, resulting in clothing that is not only luxurious but also designed for long-lasting enjoyment. Each piece undergoes careful knitting, dyeing, and embroidery, making them exceptional wardrobe staples.
The Denim Mix Series
Another exciting line features unique denim mix pieces. 039LAUNDRY collects used denim, which is then cleaned and disassembled by hand. The components are meticulously sorted and cut before being transformed into new yarn at their spinning factory located in Nagano Prefecture. This yarn is then turned into fabric using vintage knitting machines still operational in Wakayama. The resulting denim mix T-shirts showcase distinctive bluish hues and rich textures, resulting from the remnants of denim used in their creation.
Kyoto Montsuki Collaboration
Both 039LAUNDRY and Kyoto Montsuki bring over 100 years of legacy to this collaboration, firmly dedicated to craftsmanship that is truly one-of-a-kind. The partnership highlights Kyoto Montsuki's unique
