[Nakatsu Broom Craftsman Shinji Yoshida × UNGAPLUS]
This "Small Diagonal Broom" was created in collaboration with Shinji Yoshida, a Nakatsu broom craftsman based in Otaru. Nakatsu brooms are traditional brooms that have been made in Nakatsu Village (now Nakatsugawa Town, Aiko District, Kanagawa Prefecture) since the Meiji era. Brooms are made from hand-bundled broom corn and woven with UNGAPLUS's original yarn, which evokes the essence of Otaru. 
This mini broom is knitted with "Retro Black," a simple black thread that accentuates the Showa-era retro aesthetic of "beauty of utility." This "small diagonal broom" is compact and fits comfortably in your hand, making it perfect for cleaning around your desk, kitchen, dining table, and more. It also comes with a hanging string, so it can be stored anywhere. 
Nakatsu Brooms are made from pesticide-free broom corn, and create beautiful brooms from a unique perspective while carrying on tradition.
