*Please note:
very soft and nice tee shirt, I like the thickness of the cotton.
Great Shirt! Perfect fit. Just missing one more front button.
High quality as always. Fit was perfect. Looking forward to the SFO store!
I love the quality and fit of this shirt. I will definitely be purchasing more.
This shirt attracted my attention because it’s claimed to be made of “extra heavy” linen - unlike your typical summer lightweight shirts you find everywhere. While I expected “extra heavy” to be somewhat heavier, I admit it’s not a measurable category unless gsm is provided; yet, for me it ticks this checkbox.
I had to remove one star for a simple reason: when completely buttoned down, one half of the shirt is noticeably shorter than the other. This flaw remains after ironing and washing - see the photo. I find it unacceptable given Kamakura’s aimed premium market segment and the emphasis on not compromising on quality.
The delivery to Germany was fast and problem-free.
