■Product Details■

Era: Showa period (exact decade unknown)
Material: Cotton
Size label: L (hand-sewn)

This vintage band collar shirt was made in Japan during the Showa era.
Rather than being mass-produced, it appears to have been handmade with care by someone well-versed in dressmaking.
The hand-stitched "L" size marking at the neckline adds a charming personal touch.

Crafted from breathable, unrefined cotton, the fabric showcases a deep, rich indigo hue that lends the piece a quiet presence.
Though it remained unused for decades as a deadstock item, we have gently one-washed it to soften the fabric and prepare it for modern wear.

The design is minimal, featuring a single chest pocket and a silhouette reminiscent of classical shirts seen in the Taisho to early Showa period.
The clean neckline of the band collar pairs well with T-shirts or turtlenecks.
Its timeless cut makes it suitable for all genders and a versatile piece in any wardrobe.

It can be worn on its own or as a mid-layer under a jacket during cooler seasons.
The indigo dye will naturally fade over time, developing a unique character that evolves with each wear.

If you’re drawn to garments that carry the warmth of human hands, this quietly distinctive shirt may be the one for you.

※ The item will be shipped in a compressed state, which may cause wrinkling. Thank you for your understanding.
