8117 - Kyoto Kurozome Crest Tie-dyed Crew Neck - Black

Using the same Kyoto crest dyeing process they've used in the past, they decided to go a bit wild with this one. Starting with a natural base, they've created such a deep contrast by using this super black dying technique. We think the results speak for themselves. One of the small details we noticed with this piece is that the V-gusset at the neck only runs off in one direction. Generally, they stop at the point of intersection, or both continue on in opposite directions. We're sure this is bred from some vintage garment they found that has just the single directional runoff. These are super soft and cozy, but make sure you read the size charts and fit notes before you run off and snag your true size.

Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a size large in the photos. He thought this would be closer to his true size, but these fit a lot like the tee shirts. An XL would have been the better overall fit with his outfit. Their tees and sweats are simply built differently, so whatever you do, don't just buy your true size. Take some measurements and make sure you size up by at least one size. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs with a 40" chest.
