Basic yet original Japan-made! Introducing TIPICO

Share this blog post

Hello.

This is Ozaki from the ApparelX trend blog.


Today, we are introducing the textile manufacturer TIPICO. The ApparelX maker page is here.


In this blog, we introduce TIPICO’s company profile and products for those in the apparel business looking for yarn-dyed fabrics, natural fiber textiles, and more.


What is TIPICO?

TIPICO is a textile brand from the fabric division of Kuwamura Textile.


Kuwamura Textile is a long-established textile manufacturer founded in 1928, based in Taka District, Hyogo Prefecture, also famous for Banshu weaving.

It is a long-established company that develops textiles through multiple departments, from filament yarn to spun yarn.


Among them, TIPICO offers a wide range of materials from natural fibers to synthetic blends, all produced in Japan with high quality.

It sells a diverse selection of fabrics in stock, including series made with organic extra-long staple cotton, series made with Supima cotton, and the "KAYANU" series made with the TIPICO original brand combed yarn,


It is a textile brand that is also highly regarded globally, with inquiries from overseas customers as well.



ApparelX Recommended Products


OGN-1005ST Superior Organic Typewriter Stripe

This is a typewriter cloth made from 100% organic cotton.

Because it uses extra-long staple cotton and has a high thread count, it feels good against the skin and is a high-quality textile.

On the other hand, it also has a Wash Finish, which gives it a natural texture.

With its classic stripe pattern, this is worth considering if you are looking for yarn-dyed shirting fabric.


SPM-2066 Supima 80/2 Oxford

An oxford fabric made with Supima cotton, the highest-grade cotton.

The warp yarns use two strands of 80-count double yarn laid together, creating a high-density material with firmness.

Although it is oxford, it uses fine-count yarn and has a high density, so it can be used widely from casual to formal.

It is a fabric that would work well not only for menswear but also for Ladies items.


KAYA-1831 Kayanu Cotton Vintage Chino Cloth

Using carefully selected raw materials, this is spun on a compact spinning machine at a domestic spinning company, creating a clear, glossy yarn with little fuzz.

That yarn is TIPICO’s original brand combed yarn, "KAYANU."

This chino cloth uses that yarn.

Because it is made with glossy, low-fuzz yarn and woven at high density, it has a very luxurious twill texture.

The color is also exquisite, and it seems ideal for making standout items such as pants or jackets.


TPW-801 Super100' Single Yarn Washable Gabardine

Gabardine made with Super 100' single-ply wool.

Unlike yarn count, Super 〇〇' single yarn indicates the fineness of the raw fiber itself.

This gabardine is woven at high density with extremely fine fibers, and its yarn-dyed color is also very attractive.

The khaki, in particular, has an exquisite, luxurious look.

It is also washable, so it is easy to handle.

If you are looking for a luxurious, washable wool gabardine, this is a great choice.


TP-500 High-Density Polyester/Nylon Milicloth Water-Repellent Finish

While Kuwamura Textile is strong in natural fibers, this one is polyester/nylon.

By combining special yarn usage and finishing to push the density to the limit, this high-performance material enhances wind resistance and water repellency while also maintaining breathability.

Not only are its functions impressive, but its texture is also appealing.

It has a suede-like fuzzy surface feel, and although it is labeled milicloth, it is also perfect for high-quality items beyond military wear.
