Premium Material Habutae Fabric Wing Bow Tie, Navy

A simple bow tie with reliable quality for the sophisticated adult.
This pointed bow tie is made with a luxurious silk fabric used for the collars of formal men’s wear such as tailcoats and tuxedos.

The facing silk fabric used is woven at a small textile workshop in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi Prefecture, one of Japan’s leading silk fabric producing areas. Fujiyoshida is a historic production region that dates back to the Heian period. This area, with spring water flowing from Mount Fuji, has the clean water needed for good dyeing.
In the weaving process, Yamamoto’s mixed-weave facing silk fabric uses as many as 13,000 warp threads in a width of just 47 cm, and the weft uses 120-denier yarns twisted double into an astonishingly thick 240-denier yarn.
By weaving slowly on a shuttle loom, the fabric contains air and has a three-dimensional feel, and artisans constantly inspect it for any defects. Each stage of dyeing, spinning, warp preparation, and weaving is carried out by craftsmen under strict quality control to create a good product for the customer.
