The piece
A long, single-breasted trench in sumi-black Bishu wool gabardine, cut with a dropped shoulder and a hidden placket so the front reads as one clean line.
A deep back vent lets it move when you walk; the collar stands up against the wind and folds flat when it does not. Wear it over everything on the rail.
Cloth & care
Wool gabardine woven at a family mill in Bishu, Aichi. Cupro lining. Horn buttons.
Dry clean only, rarely. Brush after wearing and hang on a broad hanger.
Fit notes

- Length118 cm on a size M.

Wear guide
- 01Wear it open with the belt tied behind so the front falls straight.
- 02Over a heavy knit, size as normal; over a shirt only, size down for a closer line.
- 03Let the hem sit at mid-calf with a wide trouser, or just above the ankle with a column dress.
- 04One vermilion accent at most: a scarf, a bag or the seal edit coat underneath.
Where the cloth comes from
- Mill
- Kisogawa Weaving Works
- Region
- Bishu, Aichi, Japan
- Process
- Woven on 1960s shuttle looms at a third of modern speed, then washed in soft river water and dried flat.
The mill has woven wool beside the Kiso river for four generations. The slow looms leave a dense, supple cloth that holds the long line of the trench for years.

Generous cut
Roomy through the shoulder so a heavy knit fits under. Size down if you want it closer.

- True to size
Moves like ink
The wool is dense but it swings when you walk. I wear it over everything from October to March.
