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.
