Dotsume Border T-Shirt - 32 Brown
Jackman - Dotsume Border T-Shirt - 32 Brown
We have a real soft spot for border tees. We also have a soft spot for the brown/black color. The border tee is a bit different than some of the other fabrics even though it's made with the same USA cotton. This piece is knit in a way that creates a natural unevenness. It's likely to evolve and change throughout its life giving it a wonderful character overall. Its unevenness also helps it cling less to the skin (a major plus for the warmer months).
- 100% Cotton
- Densely knit cotton on hanging knitting machines
- Produced in Jackman factory in Fukui prefecture

Fit Notes: Ryan is wearing a size medium in the pictures. Being on the smaller side, these are a bit oversized on him. Shop owner Tommy fits the medium more like a traditional fit. He could size up one like Ryan for that oversized look but prefers the arm length and body shape of his true size. Tommy is 5'10," 162lbs with a 40" chest.

The last time we saw this flannel it was dyed with Kakishibu. We didn't think that could be topped, but you know how much we love mud. Amami Dorozome is an age-old process done on the island of Amami-Oshima in Japan. It's a blend of mud and vegetable oil that creates rich earth tones in a washed-out, well-worn pigment only achievable through this process. In a traditional cotton check pattern such as this, it shines its brightest. We didn't get our hands on this personally last time, but we aren't going to let this one slip through our fingers.

These guys keep one-upping the Sashiko game every year. We didn't get a chance to see these in person, but we're so glad we picked them up. They are so much better than we could've even imagined. At first sight, they look like a denim pant lined with a hickory stipe screen print. Then, we got close up and realized it was the vertical sashiko creating that line work. The hand-feel after the one-wash is beyond soft, but they're still packed with so much color you're still going to get those incredible highs and lows in the knees. The great part about sashiko is you get varied high points throughout the garment that catch wear in a different way. The inspiration for sashiko garments derives from the Japanese sashiko which never truly died. They would use pieces of the last garment to create the new, hand stitching throughout. Well, they've taken this concept and created a modern work of art. They've used a combination of No.6 warp and No.5 weft yarns on specially calibrated Jacquards looms. Their hope is to replicate the Sashiko stitchwork of the kimonos, and we'd say they've accomplished that pretty damn well.

The only thing that could've improved this serge western was a new color. This one was originally called Mocha Brown, which we think is very suitable. It's this rich color that suits this now iconic shirt. It used to be that we rarely saw green from Iron Heart, but now green is a staple. So, we've been super stoked to see khakis and browns rearing their pretty heads. You can't go wrong with the western cut, unless you don't size up, as it has some absolutely gorgeous details. We love the yokes and Permex buttons the most on these beauties.
