Sashiko Chore Jacket
Reinforced with 1 million high-strength stitches, using the ancient Japanese art of sashiko.
- Made with Japanese indigo-dyed material
- Entire jacket reinforced with 5.5km of meta-aramid thread
- Garment-washed for a faded look
Reinforced with 1 million high-strength stitches, the Sashiko Chore Jacket pioneers a completely new approach to creating highly durable clothing, inspired by the ancient Japanese art of sashiko. The technique of sashiko, or ‘little stabs,’ is a highly resilient form of embroidery developed during the Japanese Edo period, where worn out garments were repaired using decorative hand stitches. Clothes would be mended again and again as they passed down the generations, getting stronger as they got older.
Rather than waiting until an item of clothing needs to be repaired, we’ve simply applied sashiko-style stitching in super-strong meta-aramid thread over the entire jacket at the start of its life. With a design based on early workwear jackets, it combines heavy-duty Japanese indigo cotton with 5.5 kilometres of high-strength stitching for comfort and durability.

Designed to help keep your skin on
Abrasion resistance doesn’t just help to increase the lifespan of clothing. It’s also designed to keep your skin attached to your body. Whether you're lugging climbing rope over your shoulder, you come off your bike on a downhill track, or your bag's shifting up and down on your back on a long run, that’s all abrasion. So wearing highly abrasion resistant clothing gives you the best chance of coming home from an adventure with your clothes and your skin intact.
