Stanley Botanic Dye Hoodie Level 1 - Light Tea Grey

HK$1,350.00

Tea dyeing, originating in ancient China, harnessed the remarkable power of tea leaves beyond their flavour and medicinal qualities. Chinese artisans uncovered the art of infusing textiles with tea-infused water or boiling them alongside tea leaves, resulting in a mesmerising array of colours. Ranging from gentle browns and beiges to rich sepia and deep greys, this technique gained popularity during the Tang Dynasty (618-907) and underwent continuous refinement over the centuries. Today, tea dyeing imparts a touch of history and natural charm to fabrics, allowing them to exude a vintage aesthetic.

To attain the desired light vintage grey effect, constant movement of the garment by hand while dyeing is required using black tea infused with mineral ions as the mordant. By employing tea dyeing, fabrics acquire an inherent allure that exudes a sense of natural and rustic charm, facilitating the infusion of a vintage or aged aesthetic into the textiles.

  • Hand Dyed with Black Tea

  • 100% Cotton

  • Designed with a relaxed boxy fit and above-the-belt crop

  • Please size up if you want to achieve a looser fit

  • Each piece will have its own distinctive pattern

  • Labelled with a vintage batik dye tab

  • Given that the dyeing process is done by hand, it is important to note that there may be variations in colour and occasional colour accumulation at specific points

  • Please note actual colour and pattern may vary from product image
