■ Production Story

The Ishiteshiro Clothing Store has released how they make their own pants, and this time they tried making a kit. The reason for this is that, like us, local people generously taught us how to make clothes.

In the past, everyone made their own clothes and the whole family wore them. They created their own lifestyles as a matter of course.

Although we cannot practice all the ways of our ancestors, we would like to share with as many people as possible the joy of making things by hand and the pleasure of wearing something you have made yourself, so we hold regular workshops .
