Product details
Based out of Japan's Iwate Prefecture, one of the northernmost provinces, Gorsch was born into a quiet rural life, taking inspiration from antique German tailoring and early proto-workwear. The garments are beautifully constructed, frequently making use of deadstock vintage textiles, with tailored silhouettes and unisex styling.
Gorsch's Spring/Summer 2024 Collection is their 12th seasonal release, and takes inspiration from the wardrobe and personal style of a local grape farmer, Mr. Sasaki, and his wife, Kanako. They run a small farm in Iwate's Shiwa District, growing grapes for white, red, and orange natural wines using what Gorsch refer to as "natural farming principles" - having purchased and restored an abandoned vineyard to produce naturally fermented wines.
With names like Bauer & Bauerin, both meaning "farmer" in German, the styles are understated - "simple" in appearance yet deceptively complex in execution. The rustic undertones in each piece's design help to balance the more formal silhouettes, creating elevated casual garments that fit easily into a summer wardrobe, whether you're on the farm laboring, or sharing a bottle of something with friends: you'll look your absolute best.
The Capri Short Sleeve is a relaxed summer popover with a spread collar and an inverse box pleat beneath the short one-button placket. Inspired by Italian Capri shirts, it features a single chest pocket, with a wide body and curved shirttail hem - the construction is all single-needle, with bar tack reinforcements for durability.
It's made from Deadstock vintage cotton dobby, a lightweight fabric from the 1980s that was discovered in a warehouse in Banshu, in the Southwest of the Hyogo Prefecture. During that era, the region primarily developed and produced textiles for export to Europe and the United States, and has been sanforized to minimize shrinkage after washing. It features a fine checkered pattern throughout, and is thin enough to appear almost sheer in certain lighting, making it a comfortable fabric for hot and humid weather.
Fits true to size. Wash cold and hang dry.
