The body of the jacket is made from an unnamed American coverall from around 1910 that was excavated from a coal mine.
The TT coverall jacket was created after Takahashi Taiga was fascinated by a coverall jacket that came into his hands after more than 100 years.
The era of mass production and mass consumption began in the United States in the 1920s.
The American-style capitalist society has changed the way various things are made.
The tradition of craftsmen carefully making each item is giving way to a manufacturing system that allows for mass production without the need for manual skills.
The workwear worn by the heavy laborers who prop up the economy tells us something of the times.
Simplified by straight stitching and flat patterns.
Everything, including the durability of the fabric and the shape of the pockets, is designed to withstand heavy work.
The elements that are now considered to be design were almost completely absent.
This jacket in particular feels more like a tool than a garment.
The material used is twill fabric, which is thick and has a moderate texture.
The straight yarn used is beautiful and even, giving the garment a clean look with a neat twill weave, and the rusted and decayed buttons and buckle add an accent.
