KAPAS - Patchwork Nerd Shirt
A relaxed rendition of the classic shirt for a fresh spin on your Summer staple. Softly structured in airy natural fibres. Un-fussy yet luxurious, keeping you cool in life's adventures.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Everyday essential. A lightweight staple, made with handwoven raw cotton and botanical dyes that are naturally thermo-regulating and let your skin breathe.
- Plant-dyed. Dyed in natural Indigo thirty times over four weeks to achieve the botanical black. As a herbal medicine, Indigo is a natural antiseptic and has a cooling effect on the skin.
- One of a kind. Each is made by hand-quilting individual KAPAS offcuts back into a full fabric. Taking six to seven weeks to manually match by eye and by hand, which is then cut and sewn individually by our Ibus in Bali just for you.
Dinda wears Size I. She is 168 cm.
Bintang wears Size II. He is 185 cm.
STORY
KAPAS means cotton in Indonesian. Each piece in this farm-to-closet collection is grown regeneratively to heal Mother Earth. Restoring the soil's natural ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere through our Ibus' ancestral Tumpang Sari wisdom. Taking 180 days to grow, spin, weave and stitch.
