商品情報
Share this blog post


Hello.


This is Ozaki from the ApparelX trend blog.


Today, I would like to introduce ROKAL, a textile manufacturer of synthetic woven and knitted fabrics.

Click here for the ApparelX manufacturer page.


This blog introduces ROKAL's company profile and products to those in the apparel business looking for work and military textile.


What is ROKAL?

ROKAL is a textile wholesale manufacturer headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo.

The following is a quote from ROKAL's website.

We sell approximately 100 marks of original textile at a risk. Our strengths lie in yarn dyed fabrics, which are characteristic of Banshu production areas, denim, military and work materials in the Bingo region, post-processing of textile, and close ties with other production areas across the country. We believe that textile are "words." We would like to propose as many attractive "words" as possible for the messages that manufacturers send through their products.

There are many textile manufacturers that deal in work and military materials, but ROKAL sells military textile that are carefully made, using military wear archives as samples.

In addition, we may be able to arrange products that are not listed on ApaprelX, so if the ROKAL product you want is not listed, please contact us via the support center .


Product Introduction

RM-0001 SALE C/N BDU RIPSTOP



This ripstop material was created based on the BDU, a combat work uniform that was adopted by the US military in 1981 and was used by the Navy until it was discontinued in 2012. It is made of cotton and nylon, and is of course highly durable.

This may be well known among military enthusiasts, but it is a textile that evokes a strong sense of commitment, as it was made by analyzing the thread of deadstock items from the brand known as BLACK357, which was only produced for one year in 1997.

Of course, there are countless manufacturers offering military-style textile, but I don't think there are many that refer to items and periods like this. If you're looking for convincing military textile, be sure to check this out!


RM-0002 TROPICAL COMBAT RIPSTOP



This is also a ripstop material based on BDU. It references the mid-model Woodland jacket that was adopted in 1984 and is made of 100% cotton.

This product is available in two camouflage patterns, basic camo and tiger stripe, so if you're looking for one, be sure to check it out!


RM-0011 MILITARY SERGE



This fabric is textile on the M-47 cargo pants adopted by the French military in 1947. As it was used for cargo pants, it is a thick and extremely durable textile.

This is a high-quality, authentic material that we recommend to anyone looking for military textile for pants.


RM-0012 USN HERRINGBONE



This is herringbone twill. When it comes to military wear, we tend to think of functional textile like ripstop, but herringbone seems to have been widely used in America in the 1940s.

This is recommended for those who want a more classic feel while still maintaining the functionality and ruggedness of military style.


RR6629 yarn dyed 60/2 cotton/ linen Nanako weave check



As mentioned above, ROKAL has bases in Nishiwaki and Banshu, so they also have a lineup of yarn dyed textile. This is yarn dyed cotton linen.

It is woven using a diagonal weave (a plain weave made by pulling together two or more warp and weft thread), which makes it breathable and soft to the touch, making it ideal for summer wear.



lastly

Thank you for reading to the end.
