US Navy Hat Herringbone Threne Vat Dye olive
This is BONCOURA's classic USN type hat.
The fabric used is BONCOURA's new original military olive herringbone fabric.
It is thicker than the herringbone material used in the vintage items of that time and has the unevenness of herringbone, making it the perfect material for enjoying BONCOURA's unique aging process.
BONCOURA's original military olive herringbone fabric is dyed exclusively using sulfur dye, a dye that was widely used on military items of the time.
Sulfur dyeing, which is classified as a vat dye like indigo dye, is resistant to fading caused by chlorine bleach contained in general detergents and sunlight, and is the most color-fast method for dyeing clothing. Because it is resistant to staining, it was widely used as a dyeing method for military equipment used in harsh environments.
Although it is an excellent dye in that the color does not fade easily, it is very difficult to adjust the color, and only experienced craftsmen can produce the desired color, so dyeing with 100% threno dyes is nowadays This is a very rare dyeing method.
