An original project [SOMETARY] with a craft cafe and Somer Kobo Takeo Nakaie.
This is a project to re-dye dead stock military wear that has been left unused overseas with natural dyes such as indigo and madder to create items with new appeal.
After working as a designer at a shipbuilding company, Mr. Takeo Nakaya of Someru Kobo learned dyeing techniques using natural dyes at a natural dyeing workshop in Kyoto, Tesomemeya , and became independent in Kyoto.
“Sometali” started when Mr. Nakaya experimentally dyed dead stock military items that were sleeping at a craft cafe.
Military wear with a rugged image is also dyed in layers with vegetable dyes, giving it a color that naturally blends into everyday life. In addition, in the process of plant dyeing, a moderate vintage feeling is added, and it changes to a tasteful expression.
Born from the idea of “vegetable dyeing x military”, “SOMETALI” has an atmosphere that can be enjoyed not only by those who like military fashion, but also by men and women.
"Sometali", "Tameshitari", "Tsukuttari"... We will deliver items that you can meet new discoveries born through trial and error with natural dyes.
Sax blue work jacket dyed with Indian indigo for a deep finish |
back
The actual product released by the German army (new) has been reborn as a new fashion item by hand dyeing by craftsmen!
The original color was sax blue and it looked like work clothes, but by dyeing it with Indian indigo, it became a casual impression like a denim jacket.
Slightly relaxed silhouette toward the hem |
side/back
Can be used by both men and women.
The model is 161cm (female) and wears a size M
side/back
Relaxed silhouette even when the front button is closed
Rough cargo pants and wide pants styles are recommended, but since it is a clear navy color, you can also match it with narrow pants for a sharp look.
You can wear it from autumn to early spring by layering a sweater and changing the inner layer during the chilly season.
Simple design. It can be used for various outfits depending on the innerwear. |
Basic collar design. The retro buttons are also dyed slightly blue with indigo dyeing.
Fold the cuffs to a three-quarter length. The impression changes even more by putting out the color of the inner.
Firm texture
The light blue buttons are accented, adding freshness to the indigo dyeing that tends to be dark.
The more the dye is worn, the more the color fades, and the vintage flavor increases.
The rugged image of the work jacket is also dyed in exquisite colors to create a casual impression.
This item is highly recommended for those who like American casual, vintage, military, and work styles.
Not only for yourself, but also for couples and couples, it is recommended as a gift for birthdays, anniversaries, celebrations, Valentine's Day, Father's Day, Respect for the Aged Day, Christmas, etc.
It takes several days from the start of dyeing to the finish, repeating the process of burning the dye plants, dyeing, mordant, and leaving. |
Mr. Nakaya moved from Gifu to Kyoto with the aim of creating his own monozukuri, where he learned the art of dyeing at a natural dyeing studio, Tezomeya.
