Giuemon Kurume Kasuri Denim-style Long Blouson, Brand New with Tags

Purchased from the directly managed store at Kintetsu Department Store

This is the Katakana version of Giemon, designed to be approachable for a younger demographic while embodying the image of kasuri. The characteristic white speckles and tiled quilting have transformed into a slightly faded red reminiscent of denim fabric, making it a stylish item. This truly represents the essence of modern Japanese aesthetics!

It features pockets on the chest and both sides, as well as a pocket at the back near the waist. The cuffs and collar have a varsity jacket style, with the Giemon logo on the buttons. When paired with denim pants and a white T-shirt, simply throwing this on top completes a sophisticated and stylish look. The combination of thick fabric and lightweight padding makes it recommended as an outer layer for early spring and fall!

According to the official site, Giemon is a fashion brand that emphasizes elegance and casualness based on traditional Japanese designs. Each item is crafted with refined sewing techniques that highlight the quality of kasuri, making them cherished as fashionable attire for travel as well as luxurious everyday wear.

As for Kurume kasuri, its charm lies in the pleasant texture, the comfort of cotton, and its simple colors… The beauty of kasuri can only be created through skilled craftsmanship.
