Description

Our Kyoto Collection are made from our 5.37 oz. lightweight cotton Japanese fabric and will last a lifetime. Samue (or Samu-e or Samu-gi) is traditionally the work jacket for a Buddhist monk or nun in Japan. And it looks great on anyone. Wear it to the meditation hall, the dojo, around town or working in the garden. The fit is quite roomy.

Our samue is pre-shrunk, and may be dry cleaned or machine washed, and line or tumble dried.ย  Like all of our clothing, itโ€™s made right here in Seattle.

โ€œSamuโ€ means โ€œwork practiceโ€ in a Zen community โ€“ these are the garment of choice for Japanese monks and nuns when they are not sitting in meditation doing the work of the day. That said, we think they look and feel great in the meditation hall. And whatever your line of work happens to be, we think youโ€™ll love doing it in this jacket.

Our Samue Jackets and Pants come in three colors:ย  Kyoto Midnight, which is black-brown charcoal weave; Kyoto Morning, a light grey weave, and Kyoto Blue, a blue weave.

To help you choose a samu, this blogpost may help.
