MONPE Stretch MIYATA ITA/ eel bed
Mompae that allows you to reconsider the concept of Kurume Kasuri in the modern age
As a "pattern" to compare the fabrics
MONPE" is a project to transform the "monpe", which was popular as farm work clothes, to fit the modern age while taking advantage of its comfort and workability. The project began with the use of Kurume Kasuri from Fukuoka Prefecture, and has now spread to textiles from many regions.
Stretch MIYATA ITA
In collaboration with Miyata Orimono, a former Kurume Kasuri weaver, we developed a stretchy monpe by weaving in warp yarns dyed using a technique called ita-dyeing, instead of the traditional kasuri weave, and adding 2% polyurethane to the weft yarns.
*This fabric is not Kurume Kasuri.

Japanese Jeans "MONPE
The "monpe" was established after World War II as agricultural work clothes, and its shape was large around the hips and had a loose silhouette. Eel Bedding developed this product in response to requests from local people who wanted to make monpe using fabrics from antiques and kimono that they had left in their wardrobes. While saving cloth, the monpe was designed to be simple, taking advantage of its width of about 36 cm (kimono length), and as a result, a slim "monpe" was born with the functionality of a monpe intact. This is the standard MONPE of today.
