Product Details

  • Era: Mid-Showa period

  • Material: Cotton

These are cotton striped monpe pants made in Japan around the Mid-Showa period. The double-knee designreinforces the knees to accommodate everyday movements such as farm work or household chores, reflecting the lifestyle of that era.

This particular pair features stitch/tacked repairs done with a sewing machine, giving it a rugged, authentic patched appearance that will appeal to fans of vintage workwear and patched textiles. The rustic striped cotton and patched details add distinctive character, making it a unique piece even in modern fashion.

These monpe pants have a front-and-back separate design with a waist tie, allowing for adjustable fit according to body shape and movement, emphasizing practical functionality.

Monpe pants were widely worn in Japanese rural areas, primarily by women, as practical workwear combining ease of movement and durability. Their rational construction minimizes fabric waste and makes them easy to sew at home.

In recent years, these Japanese vintage monpe pants have gained international recognition, and are popular as remake and handmade materials. The combination of unique fabric texture and the patched appearance resonates with people pursuing upcycled fashion or slow-living lifestyles, offering a new perspective on everyday clothing.

They can be paired with T-shirts or shirts for casual wear, adding a simple yet unique touch to your outfit. They are also perfect for remake projects, utilizing the material as it is.

Experience the wisdom and honest use of fabric cultivated in Showa-era daily life through this piece.
