Herringbone - Herringbone

Japanese: ヘリンボーン - へりんぼーん
Herringbone - Herringbone

It is an abbreviation of herring-bone twill, also known as sugiaya weave. It is so named because the twill pattern resembles herring bones (herring bones) or cedar leaves. Originally it was a woolen fabric, but in a broad sense it also includes cotton, silk, and synthetic fabrics. It is often used for men's and women's clothing, and is sometimes used for linings.
