Tamurakoma will focus on leveraging the PTJ event to boost its customer base; ‘part from the abovementioned items, it will also showcase < comfeel > tricot material for shirting, produced by partly leveraging < C2C >, which retains water-absorbing and quick-drying properties and does not sag when worn thanks to limited vertical stretchability. This item has been applied by suburban-type menswear chains and a brushed (raised) type is also available for autumn/winter.
