Hello. This is Kayaba from the ApparelX Division.

Today, I would like to introduce Fujikinbai, a Japanese canvas.

What is Fujikinbai?

This is Kawashima Shoji's Japanese canvas brand.

Kawashima Shoji was originally founded as a trading company specializing in marine materials, and currently operates a textile business as a general textile trading company.

As a leading Japanese canvas brand, Fujikinbai has been committed to "JAPAN MADE" since its establishment in 1948, preserving tradition and providing stable materials and quality.
Today, while valuing the JAPAN quality cultivated over many years in cotton canvas, we collect carefully selected materials not only from Japan but also from all over the world, and produce textiles that go beyond the boundaries of materials as ``Made by Fujikinbai.'' Masu.
Fujikinbai will continue to provide textiles that will please everyone, valuing our bond with nature.

What’s amazing about Fujikinbai

Fujikinbai's Japanese canvas is woven on shuttle looms.

The shuttle loom is a powerful loom suitable for weaving canvas. Also, since it has ears, the thread won't fray, giving it a fluffy and voluminous texture.

Compared to shuttleless looms, many factories around the world use shuttleless looms, which are highly productive, as they require more manual labor from craftsmen and are less productive.

On a different note, textile made using shuttle looms for men's clothing are favored by tailors and others who are particular about their natural texture.
