MT-106

Premium Material Hand-tied Bow Tie, Black, Made With Habutae Silk

For those who are not satisfied with a pre-tied bow tie, this is a bow tie to be tied by hand.
It is made from a premium silk fabric used for the lapels of formal menswear such as tailcoats and tuxedos.

The facing cloth used is woven in a small textile workshop in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi Prefecture, one of Japan's leading silk fabric production areas. Fujiyoshida is a historic production region that began in the Heian period. This land, where spring water from Mt. Fuji flows, has the clean water needed for good dyeing.
In the weaving process, Yamamoto's blended facing cloth uses as many as 13,000 warp threads in a width of just 47 cm, and the weft uses double-twisted 120-denier yarn for an astonishingly thick 240-denier yarn.
By slowly weaving on a shuttle loom, air is trapped in the fabric, creating a three-dimensional texture, and craftsmen constantly inspect it for any defects. Dyeing, spinning, warping, and weaving are all carried out by craftsmen under strict quality control, to create excellent products for our customers.
