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 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!
