Product Details

  • Era: Around Mid-Showa period

  • Material: Cotton

This is a striped cotton Monpe, made around the Mid-Showa period. The double-knee reinforcement is a feature designed to support daily movements such as farming and housework, clearly reflecting the lifestyle of the time.

The simple striped pattern carries a rustic texture, which still radiates a modest yet striking design even today.

This Monpe is constructed with a separate front and back panel, tied at the waist with strings, making it a practical garment that is easy to adjust according to body shape and movement.

In rural Japan, it was widely worn by women, valued as practical workwear that combined ease of movement and durability.

Its rational structure minimized fabric waste, making it known as a garment that was also easy to sew at home.

In recent years, such Japanese vintage Monpe has been gaining recognition overseas, also popular as material for remake and handmade projects.

The unique texture of old fabric resonates with the lifestyle of people who seek upcycling and a slower way of living, evoking a sense of new values.

By pairing it with a T-shirt or shirt, it can be enjoyed as a simple yet unique coordination for daily wear, and it is also ideal as material for remake projects that make use of the fabric itself.

Please experience the wisdom cultivated in Showa-era daily life and the sincerity of Japanese fabric use by holding this piece in your hands.

It will be shipped compressed, so wrinkles may occur. Please understand in advance.
