This shirt is everything you would expect from an Oxford. Very well constructed and the blue colour is brilliant! Could do with one extra button at the bottom.
I have spent countless years and dollars investing in premium Oxford cloth shirts (Brooks Brothers, J.Press etc) and I can say Kamakura's fit and finish far surpasses any and all brands. The moment you hold a vintage Ivy Oxford shirt you immediately recognize the quality (construction, heft, softness) far surpasses anything you've purchased before. Absolutely beautiful and the blue palette is perfection.
I have tried many many different OCBD shirts from various makers as I wear this style at least 75% of the time. The Vintage Ivy design from Kamakura is, in my humble opinion, the best. I own something like 10 of them in various colors. The shirts fit consistently and are top-notch down to every detail (I especially love the shell buttons, which you often don’t find even on more expensive shirts). The fit is great - comfortable and relaxed, but never baggy. Great oxford cloth fabric that just gets better with each wear. As a taller man, I sometimes wish it had a seventh button, but it has never been a problem if tucked in and you can always easily have a tailor add one. Ultimately, these are just wonderful. Classic in every sense. I hope Kamakura keeps making this line!
Amazing shirt, It has everything you should expect from a OCBD
Pretty much the perfect oxford shirt! Price is very reasonable for a beautiful Japanese product. Plan to get many more soon :-)
