Gima Knit-sewn Flare Cachecoeur

Antique beads sewn onto the cuffs and ties add a delicate accent to this summer cachecoeur. Lightweight and easy to throw on, it’s a versatile piece that proves useful on breezy days. With a crisp, cool texture reminiscent of linen, this piece is made from 100% cotton using 45R’s original gima yarn. The yarn is intentionally uneven and coated with natural konjac starch using a traditional method. This slow, analog process—requiring high-level skill—is made possible through close collaboration with expert Japanese factories, reflecting the unique craftsmanship behind 45R. With repeated wear and washing, the coating gradually wears away, allowing the fabric to soften and mold to your skin. Over time, it will become a garment that’s truly your own. *Please note: due to the traditional, manual process, darker colors may show uneven starch coating, resulting in visible horizontal lines or color variations.*
