The Beauty of Slub – A Samue with a Rustic, Vintage Texture

This samue is crafted from WASUIAN’s original slub fabric, woven in Enshu, a region known for its long history of cotton textile craftsmanship. Slub yarn with natural variations in thickness gives the fabric a soft, rustic texture that feels comfortably worn-in from the very first wear.

Lightweight and breathable, this cotton samue offers year-round comfort, especially in climates with seasonal changes. The fabric drapes softly on the skin, making it ideal Japanese loungewear for relaxing, meditation, or everyday wear.

As one of WASUIAN‘s standard and well-loved designs, the Tate Slub Samue is suitable for both first-time samue wearers and long-time enthusiasts. It is an easy, reliable choice for anyone looking to enjoy a comfortable and relaxed samue lifestyle.

What are Samue?

Samue are a type of traditional Japanese garment. While kimono are formal attire that can be challenging to wear and require various etiquette, samue consist of a jacket and pants that are easy to wear and move around in.Originating as workwear for monks engaging in daily chores, today, samue are popular garments ideal for work and casual wear. Based on functional designs that allow freedom of movement and made from lightweight and comfortable fabrics, Samue can be worn all day long.At Wasuian, we offer various colors and styles, so you're sure to find one that is perfect for you!

WASUIAN's Commitment: Backstitching

WASUIAN's Samue is made by the backstitching method of traditional Japanese clothing. Although it is somewhat inefficient to manufacture, our samue is sewn at the back, not on the shoulders, with the same relaxed shoulder silhouette as a kimono. Since ancient times, the back seam has been handed down "to prevent evil from entering through the back." This is a unique characteristic of traditional Japanese clothing that we wish to preserve.

WASUIAN’s Commitment: The Beauty of the Collar

The collar has always been an essential part of the kimono, as is evident in the idiom "Eri Wo Tadasu" ("straighten the collar"). For our samue, we avoid placing stitches on the front of the collar by using the sophisticated drop stitching technique. It relies on the fingertips to apply the sewing machine to the edge of the collar, just 1 to 2 mm away.Our artisans carefully make every garment by hand. We strive to balance preserving the essence and techniques of traditional Japanese clothing while evolving the designs to match modern lifestyles.
