ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This handwoven cotton shirt carries the ancient Indonesian tradition of Lurik weaving, where "Lurik" means stripes in the local language. The artisan creates each piece using traditional wooden weaving tools passed down through generations in Yogyakarta, Central Java, bringing centuries-old craft into modern slow living.
Made from 100% Indonesian cotton, this cap sleeve design reflects the beautiful blend of traditional handweaving with relaxed contemporary style. Each shirt is woven in Yogyakarta and carefully sewn by skilled artisans in Bali, creating a piece that honors both heritage craft and conscious fashion.
The unique fabric character comes from the handwoven process itself, where slight variations and natural texture tell the story of human hands at work. This biodegradable shirt offers conscious consumers a meaningful alternative to mass-produced fashion, connecting you to authentic Indonesian textile traditions.
