*Please note:
NY Classic was perfect fit, just as described in the detailed size guide. The Tokyo shirt of same size was too small. But, it gave me an opportunity to experience the return/re-order process. Very smooth for US buyer. DHL pickup same day. I ordered (2) custom shirts to test the waters for make-to-ordr. Most of my shirts are custom from US brand. The off-the-rack Kamakura was superior to those. Happy new customer.
The perfect sweater
A really nice shirt, constructed well with nice details. The print is crisp, fabric irons nicely. A standout part of my wardrobe.
Finally a pair of higher waisted pants that aren't shaped like a balloon. They've got a flattering masculine shapes, nice thick fabric, and still comfortable.
As the other reviewer said, check the size guide and measure yourself honestly.
Tie Quality is okay. But the package comes with no wrapping or protection, doesn't feel like buying products from a brand shop that cost this price. Instead, feel like getting from a grocery store discount section. A bit disappointed.
