Very good quality of fabric but...
Very small size even the XL format.
I'm 1,82m and 96Kgr and don't even my hand fits...
It's very pretty sad, becouse it's useless for me.
As expected of a Japanese-made product—
A beautiful reversible coat.
Crafted from legendary Magee Tweed, this coat is a masterpiece.
From the raglan-sleeve dress-style silhouette to the stitching and pattern-making,
every element comes together to create
a truly magnificent coat.
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.
very soft and nice tee shirt, I like the thickness of the cotton.
I returned to purchase this Oxford for the 2nd time, that speaks volumes the quality of the products. The customer service support has been very good & professional as well.
Great quality. A little stiff right out of the package. Softened up after one gentle wash and hang dry. The size Large was perfect for me at 5'11" and 160lbs.
After several Vintage Ivy button down shirt I now found the shirt, that soles the two problems thatbdid not make the Ivys my perdekte shirt: it has the perfect body length and the front buttons close much deeper. This now is perfect!
The shirts are great, very well made and were delivered very quickly. Well done!
The oxford shirt in size 17 fit me perfectly, almost like a taylor made shirt. I am 179 cm and not skinny build, sleeve lenght was on spot, length of the shirt perfect. The fabric itself is superb and feels great on the body, the open collar got true 1960ies vibes, movies and music of this area come to mind. Kamakura is a jewel in the shirt makers world.

I love wearing the shōnan beach shirt. Super comfortable, looks great. True to US size or a bit larger.
A fantastic shirt with a timeless Ivy style. The seersucker fabric is lightweight, breathable, and perfect for warm weather, while the construction and overall quality are excellent.
For sizing, I'm typically between a European 39/40. I chose a 16½ for a more comfortable, relaxed fit, and it was exactly what I was looking for. If you prefer a roomier fit rather than a tailored one, sizing up worked well for me.
Versatile formal trousers with excellent fabric, tailoring, and overall construction. I'm very happy with the quality and fit.
For sizing reference, I normally wear a 34-inch waist. Based on my previous experience with Kamakura, I usually size up by one, so I ordered a size 50—and it fits perfectly.
If you're between sizes , consider sizing up. I'll definitely be buying more colours in this style.
As an older fella who’s enjoyed (or been underwhelmed by) OCBDs from shirtmakers over the years (e.g., Troy Guild, Brooks Brothers, Sero, Mercer & Sons, Jake’s (London), Drake’s, O’Connell’s, Individualized), this Kamakura AMETORA shirt is a valentine to what a classic OCBD is supposed to be; it definitely checks all the boxes: full cut, unfused placket/ cuffs/ collar, the correct placket width, medium weight cloth, and a collar-roll as god intended (and few makers get right). Great sizing, too: i typically get a 15.5 X 33 shirt and this 15.5” turned out to be perfect in the sleeves for me. More color options, please.
Usual bespoke user. Apart from bespoke, best quality shirt that I have tried. Is my first purchase and won’t be the last. Thanks!
I was a bit reluctant to make this purchase because I couldn't decide whether the Medium or Large would be the best fit. For items like this, I would normally buy a Medium. For reference, I'm 6'2" and 165 lbs. After going back and forth - and reading that this garment is intended as an overshirt - I decided on the Large size. Lucky for me, the fit is perfect. It's not too big. It drapes beautifully, and the design, with its simplicity and clean lines, is exactly what I was looking for. I'm hard to please when it comes to clothing. Purchasing online is even more daunting. Ordering internationally without a return policy felt like a real bet. However, I made the bet, and I'm very happy that I did. I've had it for less than a week and have received multiple compliments from multiple strangers, which is unusual - more of a testament to its beautiful simplicity.
A truly excellent shirt. Flattering in fit without being overtailored, sturdy yet breathable cloth and immaculate quality of detail and finish. A premier garment that thoroughly justifies a premium price; I shall be sure to buy another!

This shirt is another work of art. Looks fantastic and is just a super cool shirt. As I mentioned in another review, I ordered a full size up.
I own about a dozen Kamakura OCBD, and at least 5 in the Vintage Ivy series. An extra button at the bottom of the front placket would be great for taller people, but that's just a nice to have. The shirts get better with washing, except the NAVY one. The color fades (to be expected) even with cold washing and air drying. I find it makes the shirt a little less attractive than the others. It's a common problem with dark navy cotton garments after repeated washing. I will buy more Vintage Ivy shirts for sure, just not this color.
