Description

The Samurai SSS26-ATW Tropical Weather Dobby Shirt in Olive is a limited edition piece produced in an exclusive 6 oz. Japanese Panama Weave cloth, making it a dutiful, style-forward heritage collector’s item with rare provenance. Drawing on a study of vintage military shirts and tropical cloths, this proprietary fabric development uses a variety of twisted slub yarns woven at Samurai's Banshu mill with a planned tension to create a three-dimensional spotted pattern that allows for breathability and a beautiful texture. This durable Panama-style cloth uses Kinari natural pigment-dyed cotton yarns. It is heavily washed to reveal a patterned weave and a unique patina that will continue to evolve into a directional vintage aesthetic. This Samurai Shirt comes in the Westerners Cut, with a classic fit for a range of body types and style profiles. This shirt features signature militaria details elevated from vintage originals, including a chest pocket, reinforced elbow patches, and buttoned barrel cuffs, and is finished with custom undyed Japanese nut buttons. The Tropical Weather Dobby Shirt is completely chainstitched throughout with felled seams, featuring a triple-stitched yoke, sleeves, and body with inseam run-off, and is bartack-reinforced for provenance and promised longevity. Representing one of the most collectible Japanese producers that continues to innovate through intensive old-world techniques, this Samurai celebrates exclusive material development, precise craftsmanship, and considered design through every element to create a unity of garment and wearer.
