Watanosato Women's Kurume Dobby Hanten 8080 – Made in Japan
Stay warm in traditional Japanese style with the Watanosato Women's Kurume Dobby Hanten 8080, a cotton-filled winter jacket made in Japan using fabric woven in the historic textile-producing region of Kurume.
This hanten combines traditional Japanese winterwear with soft cotton fabrics and subtle woven patterns, creating a garment that is warm, comfortable and easy to wear around the home throughout the colder months.
The outer fabric uses 100% cotton dobby weave, giving the surface a gently textured appearance. Rather than relying only on printed decoration, dobby weaving creates pattern and texture directly through the structure of the fabric, producing a richer and more dimensional finish.
The collection includes both small-dot and traditional arare-inspired patterns, offering a variety of understated designs that are easy to coordinate with everyday loungewear.

Traditional Kurume Craftsmanship
Kurume in Fukuoka Prefecture has long been associated with woven textiles and padded hanten production.
Watanosato's hanten are produced in Japan through a combination of weaving, fabric finishing, padding and sewing processes carried out within the region.
This local production method helps preserve the traditional character of Kurume hanten while maintaining consistent quality and comfort.
Cotton-Rich Padding
The warmth of the hanten comes from a specially blended filling made from 70% cotton and 30% polyester.
Cotton fibers naturally hold air and moisture, helping retain body warmth while keeping the garment soft and comfortable.
Unlike fully synthetic padding, cotton-rich filling has a naturally supple feel that conforms more easily around the body.
The filling can also recover some of its loft when aired in sunlight, helping the jacket maintain its fluffy feel over time.
Soft Cotton Outer & Lining
Both the outer fabric and lining are made from 100% cotton.
The cotton lining provides a natural feel against clothing and helps reduce the static-prone sensation often associated with fully synthetic winter garments.
The cotton construction also contributes to the traditional texture and appearance of the hanten.
Comfortable Free Size
The relaxed silhouette is designed as a Free Size, making it easy to layer over pajamas, sweaters, long-sleeve tops and other indoor clothing.
The generous cut allows freedom of movement while the padded construction provides warmth across the shoulders, back and torso.
Practical Sleeve Length
The sleeves are intentionally shorter than those of a conventional jacket, making the hanten more convenient for everyday household activities.
The sleeve length helps reduce interference while:
- Cooking
- Washing dishes
- Cleaning
- Working at a desk
- Doing crafts
- Reading
- Relaxing at home
This practical construction reflects the everyday functionality of traditional Japanese hanten.
Front Tie Closure
The traditional front ties allow the jacket to be secured easily when extra warmth is needed.
The simple tie closure also makes it easy to wear the hanten open for a more relaxed fit.
Side Pockets
Practical side pockets provide space for small personal items or simply a place to warm your hands while relaxing indoors.
Warmth for Everyday Winter Life
The hanten is especially well suited to indoor winter use.
It can be worn while:
- Relaxing at home
- Reading
- Watching television
- Working from home
- Cooking
- Doing household tasks
- Studying
- Enjoying hobbies
Its cotton-rich padding provides warmth without the rigid structure of a conventional outdoor winter coat.
