Japan Blue has taken a stab at marrying practicality with beauty, and boy have they nailed it here. The Indigo Sashiko Field Hat takes the iconic military silhouette and decks it out in a sublime traditional Japanese fabric and I have to say, this one has really got me going.

Made in Japan from a 100% cotton ‘sashiko‘, the shell sports medium-weight threads throughout that have been grand indigo-dyed to reveal stunning high contrast fades over time. The classic 6 panels are lined with a lightweight Japanese cotton twill alongside a reinforced sweatband in the same fabric for comfort in any season. It’s been washed once for minimal shrinkage and is sure to be the blue cherry on top of many a fit to come.
