{"product_id":"japan-blue-sashiko-haori-black","title":"Japan Blue Sashiko Haori Black","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Japan Blue Sashiko Haori Black is a contemporary take on the \u003cstrong\u003eHaori (羽織)\u003c\/strong\u003e, the traditional Japanese jacket originally worn over a kimono. Japan Blue reinterprets this classic garment for modern casual wear — an open-front layering piece that pairs effortlessly with a white T-shirt and jeans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe fabric is an \u003cstrong\u003e11oz sashiko weave\u003c\/strong\u003e, a traditional Japanese textile construction historically used for crafting durable garments such as \u003cstrong\u003ebudo clothing and firefighter attire\u003c\/strong\u003e before the emergence of modern technical fabrics. The distinctive raised texture of sashiko creates a surface rich in depth and tactile character, setting it apart from standard woven fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe color is achieved through \u003cstrong\u003eblack rope dyeing\u003c\/strong\u003e, producing a \u003cstrong\u003edeep, saturated tone\u003c\/strong\u003e that evolves with wear. Over time, the raised sashiko texture catches light and abrasion differently, developing \u003cstrong\u003eunique fades and patina\u003c\/strong\u003e that highlight the fabric's three-dimensional structure — revealing subtle grey undertones as the black softens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Haori features a \u003cstrong\u003eloose, oversized silhouette\u003c\/strong\u003e designed for relaxed, effortless layering. It comes in \u003cstrong\u003eone size only\u003c\/strong\u003e. The fabric has been \u003cstrong\u003eone-washed\u003c\/strong\u003e to eliminate shrinkage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e This Haori comes in \u003cstrong\u003eone size\u003c\/strong\u003e with an oversized, relaxed fit.
