In the past, linen workwear was commonly worn in the rural areas of France as summer workwear. Linen, which has excellent breathability and quick-drying properties, was highly valued as a practical material that allowed people to stay comfortable even in sweaty seasons, and was indispensable especially for farmers and craftsmen in rural areas.
Among these, linen fabric dyed with indigo was extremely rare. Indigo dyeing was originally an expensive dyeing technique, and combining it with linen, a material that is difficult to dye, required advanced skills and effort, so it was only available in limited areas and for limited purposes even at the time.
This particular item is made from lavish amounts of indigo linen, and due to its rarity it has been worn with care and repeatedly and meticulously repaired.
This piece is steeped in history, with the distinctive, crumpled texture of French linen, a soft feel that has developed over the years, and patchwork that has been carefully hand-repaired. The breathtakingly beautiful indigo fade, created over a long period of time, has a depth that can never be achieved in modern mass-produced products.
The design, based on the historical background and purpose, is not just old, but also shows a high level of perfection as functional beauty. Linen pants with this appearance are rare even among vintage items. The material, color, and details all have a history that has been carefully woven together, making this a watch that is truly for connoisseurs. If you are looking for one, this is your chance.
