Japanese Dots Vest

🇩🇪 German Made Vest with Sashiko Character

Here’s a classic piece for fans of heritage denim and characterful layering — a Blaumann vest in the striking “Japanese Dots” weave. Made in Germany by Blaumann Jeanshosen, this vest blends traditional Japanese-inspired textile craft with thoughtful European construction. Preowned but hardly used at all, this vest is practically like new and ready to be a standout piece in your wardrobe.

🧵 A Vest That Tells a Story

This Blaumann vest is crafted with a high-closed front in the unique Japanese Dots fabric — a textured cotton weave inspired by traditional Japanese techniques (sometimes referred to as Dobby 2 in weaving terms). The indigo-dyed front panel contrasts beautifully with classic dark blue tones, giving the vest depth and subtle patterning without loud branding.

The Japanese Dots weave brings a tactile, almost artisanal quality that’s rare in modern casual wear — perfect for adding texture and interest to denim-on-denim looks or layering over shirts.
