A stylish long umbrella with a combination of two colors unique to narrow Koshu textiles.

"TwoPly" is a new standard series of simple, high-quality Koshu-ori fabric with a beautiful combination of two colors.
This umbrella can be used for both rain and sun, using double-sided Koshu-ori fabric, which is woven using a shuttle to create two-colored warp threads that overlap each other so that the front and back sides are different colors.
Because it is woven in a twill weave, the colors of the threads on the front and back reveal each other little by little, creating a deep color and a high-quality feel.
We also pursued functionality by combining it with a lightweight and easy-to-use carbon frame.

TwoPly : Series Concept

A combination of two colors unique to narrow Koshu woven fabric

This umbrella is made of double-sided Koshu weave fabric, which is woven with a shuttle to create different colors on the front and back, while overlapping the warp threads. Because it is woven with a twill weave, the colors of the threads on the front and back show through slightly, expressing a deep color and a high-quality feel.

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.

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.

Fabric woven on a rare narrow shuttle loom

Fabric woven on a small-width loom, which has become extremely rare among looms, is made by looming the weft thread with a shuttle and folding it back at the edge as it is woven, which creates selvedge at the edge of the fabric.
Since there is no need to sew a large piece of fabric to fit the width of the umbrella, there are no perforations, so it looks smart and stylish, and you don't have to worry about fraying even if you use it for a long time.

Also, because the shuttle loom moves slowly and carefully, making a clanging sound, it takes longer than usual to finally complete a piece of fabric.

We are particular about the color of the dyed thread, and the color can be used even by unisex people.

The fabric is woven in narrow widths, and the edges of the umbrella fabric are folded back and woven with the weft threads, creating a smart design with no perforations. By using the color of the lining on the name band, it becomes a fashion accent and creates a stylish look. Also, when you fold the umbrella, you can see a glimpse of the color of the lining, giving it a playful yet simple look.

About the handle

The beech handle has a beautiful and elegant natural wood texture.

The handle is made from natural beech wood, which is characterized by its fine grain and soft texture, and is processed to make it easier to hold and stained a natural brown.
The included ball clasp has a smoked finish, making it easy to match with men's outfits and giving the handle a luxurious look.

  • The color of the name band is a subtle accent

    The fabric is woven in narrow widths, and the edges of the umbrella fabric are folded back and woven with the weft threads, creating a smart design with no perforations. By using the color of the lining on the name band, it becomes a fashion accent and creates a stylish look. Also, when you fold the umbrella, you can see a glimpse of the color of the lining, giving it a playful yet simple look.

  • 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 the lightest and hardest carbon fiber material. It is a very light material, yet extremely strong and wind resistant. It is also a rust-free material, making it easy to maintain on a daily basis.
    The center rod is made of aluminum.
    It is a very lightweight material that does not rust and is therefore easy to maintain.
