Flavorful cotton-linen fabric that brings out the best of both cotton and linen

"Cotton Linen Light Poplin Wins Dyed" is meticulously woven in the Enshu region using 100% cotton for the warp and a cotton-linen blend for the weft, creating a wide plain weave fabric. This process highlights the natural characteristics of the materials, resulting in a natural and rustic texture.

Natural wrinkled texture with subtle crepes

"Cotton Linen Light Poplin Wins Dyed" is dyed using a rare, old-fashioned "Wins dyeing machine," which is handled by few places in Japan. By gently dyeing the fabric with minimal tension, it produces a natural wrinkled texture with subtle crepes.

Wins Dyed

Wins dyeing is a dyeing method where rope-like fabric is rotated in a dye bath. This gentle dyeing process minimizes tension on the fabric, resulting in a plump and soft texture.

Characteristics of the processing

To achieve a natural texture, cotton and linen slubs (blackish-brown speckled dots) are intentionally left on the fabric surface. The appearance of wrinkles and unevenness varies by color and is not uniform, with differences in expression between lighter and medium-dark shades. Please note that this fabric has unique characteristics such as slubs, dye unevenness, wrinkles, and creases, which are not found in typical fabrics. Therefore, we do not recommend it for those who are sensitive to slight irregularities or minor stains. Due to the nature of the processing, partial color variations, streaks, wrinkles, rubbing, and pressure marks may be present, but please understand these as part of its natural charm.

Fashionable and versatile for all seasons, even unironed

"Cotton Linen Light Poplin Wins Dyed" beautifully blends the best qualities of both cotton and linen, creating a fabric that is soft yet has just the right amount of body and an expressive texture. It's so fashionable that it looks great even when unironed. Another appeal of cotton-linen fabric is its less seasonal feel compared to pure linen. With a medium thickness that's neither too thick nor too thin, it's versatile enough for anything from clothing like shirts and dresses to small accessories, making it a perfect choice when you're undecided on fabric.
