Product Details

  • Era: Mid-Showa period

  • Material: Cotton

This is a pair of cotton stripe Monpe made around the Mid-Showa period.

Monpe were widely used workwear in Japanese rural areas, combining ease of movement and practicality, and they became a staple of women’s daily lives from the early Showa period through the postwar era.

The simple straight-cut structure minimizes fabric waste, making it easy to tailor at home, which is also one of its distinctive features.

This item is made of striped cotton fabric and features a double-knee design, reinforced at the knees to support the frequent kneeling movements in agricultural work.

The waist features ties for fastening, reflecting the front-back separate design typical of the period. This design provides both simplicity and functionality, while the ties themselves show wear consistent with age.

The clothing reflects practical ingenuity rooted in daily life, and its overall presence itself is appealing.

In recent years, Japanese Monpe and workwear made from vintage fabric have gained remarkable recognition overseas.

It is also popular as a material for remakes and handmade items, and for people who value a slow lifestyle or rural living, it resonates with contemporary values.

Pair it with cut-and-sew tops or shirts to create a style that blends naturally into everyday life while remaining unique.

This is a recommended piece for anyone who wishes to enjoy fashion connected to agriculture, nature, and sustainability.

Incorporate Monpe, born from Japanese daily life, combining rustic and functional beauty, into your modern wardrobe.
