KARIM HADJAB (Kareem Ajamu) ``Indigo Cotton Twill Double Breasted Work Jacket''.
Special items are now in stock.
KARIM HADJAB (Kareem Ajamu) is a brand created by French-born designer "KARIM HADJAB".
This new approach, which has nothing to do with mass production and mass disposal, which is currently an environmental issue, is very interesting, as it repeatedly emphasizes efficiency and industrialization.
Instead of producing the clothes from scratch, he creates clothes by leaving vintage clothing in nature for a year and changing it with the power of nature, or using artificial microorganisms (bacteria). We create things that are unimaginable in modern times, such as creating changes through the power of energy.
He creates a number of pieces by adding a new value to vintage clothing that has not seen the light of day: ``aging changes due to the forces of nature''.
The clothes he created may just be "clothes" after all.
However, unlike mass-produced clothes, due to changes over time in the environment in which it is placed,The look of each item is completely different.
Each item has a different personality.
I think it's more like a "work of art" than clothes.
I think there is something in common with the vintage wear that is mainly sold at this point shop.
It is no exaggeration to say that the patchwork, hand repair, and excessive fading caused by harsh working environments, especially seen in workwear, are the result of the times and nature.
Please enjoy KARIM HADJAB's works that will make you reconsider the way you interact with clothes.
Among them, this individual belongs to the line named "4Seasons".
Kareem Ajamu has various lines of items, but this line is about ``vintage clothing left in nature for a year to change color.''
The same goes for this specimen, which is a piece of French workwear that was probably used around the 1930s, and was left out in nature for a year to cause it to discolor.
There is no way that it could have been intentionally made to look white, as if it had been bleached.Mr. Kareem Ajam's knowledge and thoughts on clothes: When you think about the fact that these clothes are only made in irregular environments left in nature for a year, it feels like you are looking at a work of art.
Of course it's interesting how to make new clothes,I think this item used in "4Seasons" is also a special item worthy of being a top piece among French workwear.
Using rare fabric indigo cotton,A rare detail called the so-called "double-breasted" design with two rows of buttons.
The fact that it is double-breasted increases its rarity value, and there are many people who are looking for it because of the impression that there are few pitches in the market.
As expected, double-breasted pieces have a stronger visual impact and presence than single-breasted ones.
Among the double-breasted individuals, most have the impression of a coverall type, so I think stand-up collars like this one are extremely rare.
The atmosphere is similar to French army mechanic jackets and signal soldier jackets.
Neat stand collar design - Total of 10 pieces arranged in 2 rowsExposed wood buttons, curved cut sleeve tips, and back yoke that looks like it's from the old days.
There are countless special details to mention.
Workwear usually has pockets, but this item does not come with either chest pockets or hand pockets, making it a unique irregular item.
Of course, the details are also special, but it goes without saying that the indigo-dyed fabric feels exquisite.
I cannot confirm the size description, but I think it corresponds to "M-L".
Looking at the actual measurements, I think it's a golden size that fits Japanese body types, so I think people with a wide range of body types can wear it.
It seems like most double-breasted jackets come in smaller sizes, so it's rare to find one that can be worn by a wide range of body types like this one.
There are some signs of use such as dirt, small holes, and replaced buttons, but there is no major damage that would cause problems with wear, so I think it can still be worn.
Made from rare indigo cotton fabric, it also has a double-breasted design, which is considered a rare detail.
This individual has been given a new lease of life by "KARIM HADJAB".
Of course, unaltered original vintage is also good, butA piece of clothing that changes over time due to the forces of nature is interesting and may change the way you think about clothes.
I think this is a valuable item not only for your wardrobe, but also as a collection item and design source.
This is a one-of-a-kind artistic item in the world, so if you like it, please take this opportunity to pick it up.
