Boost Productivity with your Favorite Apron

In ancient Egypt, aprons were worn as a symbol of authority. It wasn’t until the Middle Ages that aprons began to be worn to protect the body and clothing, as they are today. In Japan, genre paintings from the Sengoku Period depict people wearing ‘maedare’, considered an early form of the apron, showing its primary use during work.

In this way, aprons became common as workwear and I believe many of you feel a natural shift in mindset by putting one on — all the more so if it is your favorite apron. If you are looking for that one special high-quality apron, we recommend the all-leather ‘Washable Leather Hakama Apron’.

A Lightweight and Washable All-Leather Apron

Designed for long-lasting wear, this cow leather apron not only offers pleasant texture but is also strong and durable against heat. Since genuine leather products are not water-resistant and can suffer from color fading and shape distortion when wet, it is usually considered an unsuitable material to wear as an apron. However, the ‘Washable Leather Hakama Apron’ is dyed with a special dye, making it possible for washing. Wash individually with a neutral detergent and it can be easily kept clean. 

The apron features a convenient pocket with great storage capacity. When you are at work, there are times when you find dirt accumulating in your pocket no matter how careful you are. However, the main pocket on the ‘Washable Leather Hakama Apron’ is equipped with a hook-and-loop fastener at the bottom, allowing you to easily empty out the dirt inside. 

Genuine leather products are high in quality because of their sturdiness and durability but these qualities can make them heavier. People will find it cumbersome to wear items that weigh them down. But with the ‘Washable Leather Hakama Apron’, it’s different. Skilled craftsmen paid special attention to the materials and stitching, resulting in a surprisingly lightweight apron.

This lightweight all-leather apron is designed for comfort, ensuring you won’t feel tired even after prolonged use. It also addresses the issue of shoulder stiffness caused by the weight of the apron itself. Whether during work or for performing specific tasks, you’ll want to keep it on all the time.

Grow Attached to it with Every Wear 

The ‘Washable Leather Hakama Apron’ offers stylish protection against dirt and water damage, making full use of the quality of its high-quality materials. It is what you would call a bib apron that covers the chest area and is suitable for people of all ages and genders. Unlike typical genuine leather garments that feel rather stiff and uncomfortable, this apron has a split hem like the shape of a hakama (casual kimono), allowing for easy movement whether it’s squatting or standing.

Despite it being ‘an apron for professionals made by professionals’, it can be used in various everyday situations such as cooking and outdoor activities. Just slip it on before any chore or hobby, and it will protect you from heat and oil. While this apron is unlike conventional genuine leather items for being water-resistant and lightweighted, it still offers the joy of the leather’s aging process for prolonged use. As you grow attached to over time, this apron will become something like a tough, dependable companion.
