Soft denim fabric perfect for shirts and dresses

Many people associate denim with being difficult to sew, but this fabric is soft, easy to work with, and glides smoothly under the needle.

For Casual Workwear

It’s lightweight but durable, making it long-lasting.

Of course it works for Echimaki shirts and three-quarter sleeve shirts, but you can also extend the length to make Echimaki dresses, or even use it for relaxed simple dresses.

Sewing with a sewing machine is recommended

Hand-sewing is not impossible, but since it’s a twill-weave fabric, we recommend using a sewing machine. For denim, it’s fun to mix things up by changing just the thread color for stitching!

Rescued Fabric

We "rescue" fabric that would otherwise be discarded—high-quality material that just doesn’t fit a large manufacturer’s production lot.

This time, too, we have a lovely, stylish fabric. Please consider adding this rescued fabric to your everyday wardrobe!

2 Size Options

We offer two sizes of this fabric: 2.6m, enough to make a dress, and 1.7m, perfect for shirts. Please choose the size that fits your needs!
