About the “Daigo-ji Cherry Blossoms”
Known since the Heian period as a prime cherry blossom viewing spot, Daigo-ji is home to around 700 cherry trees, including weeping cherry, Somei Yoshino, wild cherry, and double-flowered varieties.
It is also famously associated with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who held an extravagant cherry blossom viewing party here in his later years—an event known as “Daigo no Hanami.”
What is Botanical Dye?
Botanical dye is an evolved form of traditional Japanese plant dyeing techniques. As the name suggests—“botanical” (plants) and “dye”—this method uses color extracted from various natural sources such as plants, flowers, and nuts to dye materials like cotton and wool.
Unlike conventional plant dyeing, which typically uses only about 20% natural dye and relies heavily on chemicals for color fixation, botanical dye employs a special adhesive to bind natural ingredients directly to the fibers. This allows the dye to maintain over 60% natural content, making it a more environmentally and human-friendly dyeing method.
Additionally, since a single plant can contain over 100 pigment components, the resulting colors have a richness and depth that cannot be achieved with synthetic dyes—one of the key appeals of botanical dye products.

*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.
