Product Name: Baker Shorts, 10296 Reversed Sateen Material: 10 oz. 100% cotton, vat-dyed back satin Accessories: Urea buttons Stitching: Polyester spun thread Country of Origin: Japan MADE IN JAPAN Price: ¥16,000 (pre-tax price) ¥17,600 (tax included) Baker shorts, for the first time in a while. The waist is exactly the same as the full-length version. I rarely wear shorts anymore, but I see them often in the summer. I thought it would be great to have shorts made to the same specifications as the long pants, so I made them. Below, I've also included an explanation for the long pants version. Officially known as "TROUSERS, MEN'S, COTTON, SATEEN," commonly called "Baker Pants." The pattern was created by deconstructing and tracing the original MIL-T-838D (1958). Hem width is 24 cm. It has a loose silhouette with wide thighs and a deep rise. In summer, the wind passes through, and in winter, wearing leggings underneath doesn't feel restrictive. The fabric, back satin, is a "coarse-grained back satin used for Baker pants" created with reference to MIL-T-838D individual pieces and MIL-C-10296J (fabric specifications). It has a supple feel. Initially sulfur-dyed, it is now vat-dyed. The initial sulfur dyes were discontinued. Although different types of sulfur dyes were tried, next, factories capable of consistent "mercerization" (a process to flatten the surface with alkali) to sulfur dyeing became unavailable. Having "mercerization" and "dyeing" done at separate factories is not practical for cost and quality stability. Therefore, it was changed to "vat dyeing." With vat dyeing, there are integrated factories for mercerization and dyeing. A characteristic of vat dyeing is less color fading compared to sulfur dyeing. However, "whitening" occurs in areas that are rubbed. As can be seen in the back felled seams, it's a dramatic and noticeable change. Sulfur dyeing results in an overall whitish appearance, eventually leading to a largely similar color throughout, but with vat dyeing, there is a stark difference between rubbed and unrubbed areas. While back satin is about 10 oz, poplin is about 6.2 oz. I wore jungle fatigue pants for mowing grass in the summer and thought, "Wouldn't a Baker made with this thickness of poplin be perfect for midsummer?" so I brought that idea to fruition. However, the fabric thickness differs from back satin, and it's not possible to sew it well using the same sewing method. We made minor adjustments, such as changing the waistband lining from a chain stitch to a single stitch. The product is one-washed. The above is an excerpt from WORKERS. Because labor costs are too high, I'm not making shorts anymore! It hasn't been that long since that declaration, but baker shorts are back. It's probably also due to the judgment that cool shorts are an absolute necessity for the increasingly hot summers of recent years. This season, two types are being released: one using 10oz back satin and another using an even thinner 6.2oz poplin. This page is for the 10oz back satin fabric version. They are knee-length, so if they are too long, you might want to fold them up a bit. The product is pre-washed.Actual size chart: unit cm Size XS S M L XL Waist 80.5 85.0 - 95.5 102.0 Front Rise 34.0 34.3 - 35.5 35.5 Back Rise 44.0 44.3 - 44.5 45.5 Thigh 33.0 34.3 - 37.0 38.0 Inseam 23.0 23.3 - 23.5 23.5 Hem Width 29.0 30.0 - 32.0 32.8
