Hello.
This is Nukui from andPheb.

The 27SS pre-order event last week was also a great success.
Let's get back to the current season.
Autumn open collar shirts.
Cotton sweaters you'll want to stock up on.
Luxurious work pants.
And, the Forestiere.
Let's gear up for our autumn outfits.

Open Collar Shirt Chambray
Open Collar Shirt Chambray (2609-OPSH-CH)
¥19,800 including tax
1.Indigo-Chambray
2.Smoky-Chambray
I have produced long-sleeve open collar shirts several times in the past for the autumn/winter season, but I felt the need to brush them up again, so I have worked on them once more.
First, about the pattern. Previously, the design included details like side slits and a difference in length between the front and back, but this time, I prioritized ease of use and versatility when worn, so the hem is a flat, straight specification. The silhouette is about 57cm in body width for size 15. The shoulder width is set at about 48cm, a balance that is neither too dropped nor too narrow. The sleeve width has been given a little extra room, adjusted for a comfortable fit without feeling tight.
The buttonholes are set horizontally for the top one and vertically for the ones below. The neck circumference is set slightly wider than conventional open collars so that it can be worn even with the top button closed. Adjusting the pattern is a seemingly plain task, but it is a process that greatly affects the overall balance. As a result, I am aiming for dimensions, specifications, and a silhouette that make you feel 'somehow easy to wear' when you put it on.
The material used is about 5oz indigo chambray. The blue tone is slightly darker, and when compared to the work shirts scheduled for delivery in other months, the difference is easier to see. This darker tone gradually brightens with wear and washing, but unlike fabrics that have a light tone from the beginning, it is characterized by a calm direction of change. Even as the color fades, the deep base tone remains, maintaining a stable impression overall. It is a fabric that has the charm of an 'indigo that grows from a dark tone,' different from so-called 'bright indigo,' and I have added it to this lineup.
The material used is about 5oz smoky chambray. At first glance, it has the look of wool, but it is a 100% cotton fabric. By coloring the top (cotton fibers) in advance and mixing in subtle amounts of black and white cotton, a deep, heathered look is created. Through this process, it has a finish that feels like wool despite being a cotton material. Originally, wool materials often use raw materials dyed at the top stage, and that texture and depth create a unique impression. This material follows that idea, reproducing a similar atmosphere while being cotton.
The product has been one-washed and sun-dried.

It is a fabric that has the charm of an 'indigo that grows from a dark tone,' different from so-called 'bright indigo,' and I have added it to this lineup.
The material used is 90% cotton and 10% wool flannel. The fabric unit price is a bit high, but by mixing in a small amount of wool, a unique 'fluffy' texture is created. Although it is a wool blend, the content is low, so there is almost no prickliness. For those who are resistant to wool materials, you can wear 'PLY Off Turtle' as an inner layer so that your neck does not directly touch the shirt collar, making it more comfortable to wear. It can be used not only as an open collar shirt but also as a light outer layer, making it a material that can be worn for a long season. The product has been one-washed and sun-dried. Please avoid tumble drying, as it can damage the fabric and cause shrinkage.

Raglan Cotton Sweater
Raglan Cotton Sweater (2609-RC-SWT)
¥18,700 including tax
1.White
2.Fade-Black
3.Navy
4.Orange
A 100% cotton cut-and-sew that looks like a sweater.
The appeal lies in how easy it is to wash and handle. The body uses an extra-thick jersey material. While it uses the same knitting structure as a T-shirt, by knitting multiple extra-thick yarns together, it achieves the thickness and presence of a low-gauge knit.
This jersey has a 'non-brushed' finish. While brushing increases warmth, it comes with issues such as snagging on inner layers, reduced fabric strength, and increased costs. Also, since jersey is a single-layer structure rather than the three-layer structure of fleece-lined sweatshirts, excessive brushing can affect the fabric balance. Although there is a visual difference, it remains at a level that is barely noticeable when worn alone.
The design is based on the raglan sleeves of a Johnstons 16-ply cashmere sweater. It is a model with a very thick, loose silhouette and impressive needle-out ribs. While the thickness is typically reserved for mid-winter, it has been reconstructed into a cotton material to make it easier to wear daily. The raglan construction allows for shoulder mobility, and the roomy sleeves provide a stress-free fit. It can be worn comfortably over a T-shirt without any itchiness. It is a piece that combines the look of a sweater with the ease of a cut-and-sew garment.

Cotton Relax Cardigan (2609-CR-CDG)
¥22,000 (tax included)
1.Fade-Black
2.Navy
3.Orange
A 100% cotton cut-and-sew garment that looks like a sweater. Cotton Relax Cardigan.
The appeal is its ease of handling, as it can be washed without worry. The body uses an extra-thick jersey material. While using the same knitting structure as a T-shirt, it uses multiple extra-thick yarns to achieve the thickness and expression of a low-gauge knit. This jersey has a 'non-brushed' finish. While brushing increases warmth, it has issues such as snagging on inner layers, reduced fabric strength, and increased costs. Also, since jersey is a single-layer structure rather than the three-layer structure of fleece-lined sweatshirts, excessive brushing can affect the balance. The difference in finish is only noticeable when compared directly, and this specification prioritizes a flat look.
The cardigan made of the same material features a cocoon silhouette that is roomy in the body width and tapers slightly toward the hem. While adding volume, it keeps the hem area neat, balancing relaxation with practicality. The cuffs are not ribbed, but have a natural taper to reduce snagging. The dimensional design suppresses flapping through the silhouette itself, resulting in a light wearing experience. Designed with layering over shirts or cut-and-sew garments in mind, it is a highly versatile piece that works well both alone and as an inner layer.

Lot 815 Work Pants 11 oz, Pure Indigo Denim (2609-LOT815-PID)
¥22,000 (tax included)
A pair of pants that embodies an 'imaginary luxurious work pant,' looking like work pants but also having the look of jeans due to the yoke switching. It shapes the image of a 'deluxe work pant' that doesn't fit into the context of existing workwear. The sewing uses triple-stitch lap seams on the sides, inseams, yokes, and seat seams. The stitch width is varied by part, from 9/32 gauge to 5/16 gauge. We focused on the subtle differences in stitch width seen in workwear and vintage clothing and reproduced them as a structure. While these differences originally arise from fabric thickness and sewing equipment conditions, we have incorporated them based on the fact that this variation results in a unique look.
The pure indigo denim uses a slightly thick 11 oz fabric. By adding a little more weight compared to typical 10 oz workwear, we intended a more 'deluxe' atmosphere. The yarn composition is 7 count warp x 16 count weft. Compared to the typical 10 count warp x 10 count weft for 10 oz fabric, the warp yarn is thicker and the weft yarn is thinner. The 7 count warp is the same thickness used in 13.5 oz class jeans, and by combining it with a thin weft yarn, it is adjusted to 11 oz. Due to this composition, the white weft yarn is less visible from the surface, resulting in a deeper, darker indigo look overall. The product is one-washed.

Forestier Heavy Corduroy (2609-FORESTIER-HCD)
¥44,000 (tax included)
WORKERS' winter staple, the Forestier jacket. It features a straight silhouette and straight sleeves without the waist tapering found in shirts or coveralls, following the balance inspired by the original Arnys design.
This season, we have a lineup of extra-thick, high-density corduroy that could be called 14 oz heavy moleskin. The fabric was developed aiming for a texture comparable to Brisbane Moss, possessing overwhelming thickness and presence. On the other hand, the fabric thickness and stiffness were so strong that sewing around the collar was difficult with standard specifications. Therefore, we re-examined the original structure and adopted a switching specification using a different material for the back of the collar.
At WORKERS, by placing cotton flannel on the back of the collar, we reduce skin irritation even with thick outer fabric, achieving both a comfortable fit and stable sewing quality. This heavy corduroy, in addition to a high-density design that maximizes yarn density, uses compact yarn to suppress fuzz while achieving an elegant luster and suppleness. Ultimately, it has been finished to a level of perfection that makes it naturally chosen from among multiple prototype fabrics.
Fabric production is carried out at overseas factories, and it is designed based on the premise of prioritizing quality standards and production systems. It is a material completed under the stance of choosing environments from all over the world that can achieve the desired quality, regardless of the manufacturing location.

Forestier Twisted Herringbone Tweed
Forestier Twisted Herringbone Tweed(2609-FORESTIER-THT)
¥49,500 including tax
The Forestier Jacket is a semi-standard winter item from WORKERS.
It features a straight silhouette without a cinched waist, similar to a shirt or coverall, and straight sleeves, following the balance inspired by the original from Arnys.
This season, we are also offering a model using twisted herringbone. This is a WORKERS original fabric also used for the Lounge Jacket, characterized by a "twisted" structure where a black-based 90% wool/10% nylon yarn is used for the warp, wrapped with 100% wool white yarn. The weft uses the same construction, creating a deep expression of black and white. It is a fabric with a complex, labor-intensive yarn structure hidden within a simple-looking color palette.
This fabric design was inspired by materials from a certain brand's bias period in the 90s. Drawing inspiration from a collection known for its unique fabric usage, we have reconstructed the atmosphere of that time to modern standards. It features a contrasting specification with cotton flannel on the back of the collar. This ensures a soft touch against the skin even with thick corduroy, balancing comfort during wear with ease of sewing. It also recreates an atmosphere close to the original in appearance.
We look forward to your visit.
