{"product_id":"5c5v-wabi-sabi-corduroy-japanese-baseball-cap","title":"5C5V Wabi-Sabi (侘寂) Corduroy Japanese Baseball Cap – Olive · Brown · Black","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn open brushed circle round 侘寂 with WABI-SABI CLUB underneath, all in one soft green, on a fine-wale corduroy cap. On the back, 侘寂 over 5C5V No.07 in the same green.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e侘寂 (wabi-sabi) is the Japanese idea that things are more beautiful worn, faded and a bit imperfect. A cracked tea bowl, moss on a stone, a cap that's been through a few winters. The circle is an ensō, drawn in one stroke and left open on purpose. Corduroy only gets better the more you wear it, so this one felt right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a low-profile, unstructured baseball cap in 100% cotton fine-wale corduroy, soft from day one, with a gold-colored buckle on the strap at the back. No.07 of seven in the 5C5V corduroy series. Available in Olive, Brown and Black. Made to order, and US orders are made in the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 侘寂 mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e Wabi-sabi: finding beauty in things that are simple, worn and imperfect. The open circle around it is an ensō, a brushstroke circle from Zen calligraphy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs corduroy warm in summer?\u003c\/strong\u003e It's 100% cotton, so it breathes. Fine-wale corduroy is soft and light, and it's at its best from fall through spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 5C5V stand for?\u003c\/strong\u003e Five Cities, Five Virtues: Sapporo 希 Hope, Tokyo 夢 Dream, Kyoto 和 Harmony, Osaka 力 Strength and Yokohama 信 Trust.
