Hidamari-neko : Series Concept

A jacquard-woven design of a cat that looks like it's in a sunny spot

The silhouettes of cats stretching, lying down, and standing in the sunshine are reproduced using Yamanashi jacquard weaving. Jacquard weaving creates a textured surface by expressing the design at the weaving stage, giving the fabric a three-dimensional, luxurious feel that is different to prints. Another feature is that the colours on the front and back of the woven fabric are reversed, allowing you to enjoy different colours on the front and back of the design.

Rain and sun umbrella UV-cut umbrella

The fabric is water-repellent, water-resistant, and UV-resistant. In addition to being fully functional as an umbrella, this umbrella can also be used as a parasol, making it a versatile umbrella for both rain and shine. The UV protection and shading rates vary slightly depending on the color, but all colors have a UV protection rate of over 95%.

About the fabric

"Koshu-ori" is attractive for its lustrous sheen and solid feel

The fabric used is "Koshu-ori," which is intricately woven in Yamanashi Prefecture, a famous textile production region with a history of over 400 years.
Koshu-ori is a "pre-dyed" fabric made by weaving extremely fine yarns that have been dyed beforehand into a high density, uniform weave.

This has resulted in a glossy, deep color and an elegant, heavy texture, and the product still boasts high quality today.
The weaving technique that uses double yarn (twisted yarn) for the warp and single yarn (one thread) for the weft is characteristic of Yamanashi textiles, resulting in a fabric that combines luxury and durability.

A rare textile that takes shape only after passing through the hands of many people

The production of Koshu-ori fabric begins at a dyer's shop, where the threads are dyed, then goes through a warper, where the threads are arranged into warp threads, before being sewn into fabric at a weaver's shop.
The fabric is carefully woven over a long period of time, and is then treated to be water-repellent, water-resistant, and UV-resistant, before it can finally be used as an umbrella.
In this way, the fabric that has been made by many people is then cut and sewn by craftsmen to make into umbrellas.

A long umbrella with attention to detail and slimness

This long umbrella has a sleek, attractive shape, with a focus on slimness, including thin ribs, a thin ferrule, and a thin handle. It comes with an umbrella bag made of the same fabric, making it easy to carry and store.

About the handle

The slim silhouette matches the umbrella, with a maple handle

The maple handle is made slender to match the slim umbrella.
The handle is made of painted maple, a wood that is shock-resistant and highly durable.
All of the metal parts are gold in color, and the tassels match the color of the fabric, making this a handle that can easily be incorporated into fashion.

  • A cat's adorable gestures expressed in silhouette

    By expressing the cute behavior of cats in silhouette, you can see what kind of expressions they are making today. While imagining this, we have created an umbrella that will be fun to use. It has a subtle cat design, so any color variation can be used stylishly.

  • Rokuro winding and dowel winding

    The part that moves up and down when opening and closing the umbrella is called the "rokuro" and the joint part of the bone is called the "dabo."
    The process of protecting each of these parts with the umbrella fabric is called "rokuromaki" and "dabomaki," and each part is carefully attached and covered to protect your hands when opening the umbrella and to prevent damage to the ribs, while also creating a traditional beauty and sense of luxury.
    This is an old-fashioned technique that is time-consuming and therefore not seen much these days, but all of Komiya Shoten's long umbrellas are equipped with it.

  • Ribs and center pole

    The ribs are made of steel (iron that has been heat-treated). Steel is heavy compared to other materials, but it is a very strong material. Therefore, it is resistant to wind and has the strength to support the umbrella, so it goes well with fabric and can fully express the beauty of the umbrella's tension.
    The center rod is made of aluminum.
    It is a very lightweight material that does not rust and is therefore easy to maintain.
