5680 - Kakishibu Dyed Western Shirt - Light Brown
Studio D'Artisan - Kakishibu Dyed Western Shirt - Light Brown
Oh myyyyy. This piece is so nice in person. You can feel that something special went into this cotton western upon first touch. After seeing the last round of westerns in person, we couldn't help ourselves. But the fabric is really the story here. The persimmon has become a very close friend of our shop over the past 5 years. Kakishibu is a tannin extracted from those persimmons in late August in Japan. It is used for all sorts of things including a hangover cure and wood lacquering, but for us, most notably to dye all sorts of gorgeous fabrics. Expect this gorgeous, rinsed fabric to age impeccably with time. These react really rad in UV rays. Imagine that they'll be sort of like a reverse raw indigo. They'll lighten in spots instead of darkening. We loved that they changed to the white pearl snaps for these, as well.
- Proprietary Kakishibu Dyed fabric
- 100% Cotton
- One Wash
- Belnap snap button opening
- Stylized back yoke construction
- Chainstitch seam construction
| Chest | Shoulder | Sleeve | Length | |
| 38 | 19.5" | 17 | 25 | 27.75 |
| 40 | 20.5 | 17.75 | 25.5 | 28.5 |

A variance of +/-.5" is within tolerance.
Fit Notes: Most of our Japanese brands are considered to have a small fit. Tommy is wearing a 42 in the pictures and it fits pretty well. If he were going for a trimmer fit, he could probably size down to the 40 since it has a 41" chest. We recommend sizing up at least once from your traditional fit. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs with a 40" chest, and wears a medium in North American tops.

12oz - Dusty Rose Denim - Weird Guy
Goodness, it's good to see some variation in pants this Summer. We've definitely got the most diverse lineup of pant colors and fabrics we've ever had, so why not Pink (dusty rose). These are a refreshing slap in the face when all you've been wearing is indigo all day. We knew the second we saw these that they were a cult classic in the making. This is that pair that sells out and people go hunting for it years and years from now. The color is the perfect off-pink color that 99% of people don't have in their wardrobe. It's such a unique, soft fabric that we can see guys wearing all Summer long until they break out their heavy stuff for Winter. And maybe, just maybe, these will make an appearance all year round.

We've been watching from the sidelines for a few years now. We have to admit, shorts were never our forte. But, we've broadened our horizon a bit in the last year and we've become shorts connoisseurs. We could no longer deny that our favorite brands were making shorts just as well as they make everything else. These have a super unique pocket design where the front gusseted pockets nearly mirror themselves as back pockets. It's got the modern flat black coated feather nickel button and an elastic waist for extra comfort. This comes very in handy with a raw denim. They feel stiff up front like a brand-new pair of jeans, but they're so easy to slip on because of that waistband. These will fade with an incredibly shadowy look. We know some guys are going to make these pop with blueberry blue in just a few months, and we can't wait to see it.
9oz Fatigue Shorts - Alpenflage Camo
We've been watching from the sidelines for a few years now. We have to admit, shorts were never our forte. But, we've broadened our horizon a bit in the last year and we've become shorts connoisseurs. We could no longer deny that our favorite brands were making shorts just as well as they make everything else. These have a super unique pocket design where the front gusseted pockets nearly mirror themselves as back pockets. It's got the classic feather nickel button and an elastic waist for extra comfort. We clearly have a bit of a problem with camo (we can't keep our hands off of it). And this is the most unique camo we've seen to date. It's full of unexpected colors and busyness that it almost becomes a plain. That's how we look at the wildest patterns. You can wear them with anything because they become their own amorphous thing.
This is a first for us. Karl has modified the "Field Shirt" slightly for this short sleeve version, but it still holds true to its origins. The major differences are the chopped-off sleeves and the more uniform pocketing. It still has a boxier silhouette and a pen slot in the left pocket. They've also used those iconic black catseye buttons. The fabric is for sure the star of the show. This selvedge twill is as buttery as buttery gets. It has a nice tight weave for a smooth finish that feels extremely luxurious. They've also given us those little pokes of selvedge ticker in the side gussets and on the placket. This shirt kind of ties it all together. It's a bit of what RGT has been known for, for so many years. It's a gorgeous piece to add to any collection.
