This time, I will explain about the chambray shirt of BIG YANK, a brand handled by A'r139 Kamakura.
What is BIG YANK?
BIG YANK was launched as a workwear maker by Reliance (Reliance Manufacturing) based in Chicago, Illinois in 1919.
Big Yank created a lot of innovative details from pockets to cuffs to yokes, and famous brands also imitated the details, developing products with high design while being a work wear maker.
In addition, we applied for trademarks for each of the unique details, and it was a unique functional workwear brand that could not be imitated anywhere else.
Reliance owns several brands in addition to the Big Yank, and undertakes the production of munitions during World War II as well as workwear.
Even if you look at the advertisements at that time, you can see that it was a huge company with many factories.

Big Yank is especially famous for its chambray shirts with convenience pockets, which are popularly known as gacha poke and mountain poke in the used clothing market.

Detail ③ Storm cuffs, Yank cuffs
Storm cuffs are specifications that have cuffs that are less than the size attached to the sleeves as shown in the above picture, and are details that have been seen since the 1930s.
Considering the production efficiency of sewing machines, we have applied for a trademark of cufflinks without sword rags as storm cufflinks (commonly known as Yank cufflinks).
It is difficult for wind to enter, it is easy to roll up the sleeves cleanly, and the range of motion around the elbows is widened, which is a function unique to workwear.

Detail ④ Strain Proof York
Old Big Yank chambray shirts often have a yoke that curves along the slope of the back.
The yoke is called a strain proof yoke, and it has details that release the load on the back. It has a function that allows you to move smoothly without stretching when you lift your luggage.
