Regular price $110.00Kenchoji × Hydrangea Botanical T-Shirt
Please note: This item runs smaller than standard sizing.
We recommend choosing one size larger than your usual fit.
This 100% cotton botanical-dyed T-shirt is crafted from soft, gentle fabric and dyed using natural dye extracted from hydrangeas carefully harvested at Kenchoji, the leading temple of the Five Great Zen Temples of Kamakura. The dyeing process uses a unique Botanical Dye technique—an evolution of traditional Japanese plant dyeing—which preserves over 60% of the natural components, resulting in deep, organic hues.
A double-name tag featuring Kenchoji and Kamakura Shirts is sewn at the lower left hem, making this a truly special piece.

*Please note:
This jacket embodies everything that epitomises Ivy League styling, the cut the choice of colour and the quality of workmanship are all exceptional, and so too is the fit. I am so pleased that I discovered Kamakura!
The product received is spot on to the description. The material and the color are excellent. On sizing a small is a snug fit for me. If you want a more relaxed fit or plan to wear an undershirt get a medium.
Excellent service and seamless delivery
The boring bit: Delivery from Japan was fast and seamless.
About the shirt:
I've been wearing OCBDs for over a decade at this point from various makers. I now regard this as the benchmark because it's a quantum leap above the rest. The cloth is satisfyingly heavy and yet beautifully soft. The roll on the collar is delightful and the cut of the shirt itself is roomy without being baggy allowing you to move without hinderance. The end result of this is a shirt that is comfortable enough for a lazy Saturday and yet smart enough for the office.
