This men's casual long-sleeve button-up shirt is made in Japan by Studio D'Artisan, a brand renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship. This particular model is part of Studio D'Artisan's collection, influenced by Japanese elements and culture, and inspired by the iconic traditional Japanese reinforcement fabrics. While retaining the traditional silhouette, shape, and construction of classic European and American work shirts, its most distinctive feature is the uniquely woven fabric that recreates sashiko boro noragi textiles - heritage fabrics passed down through generations in Japan - giving it a rich, textured, and distinctly Japanese aesthetic. Crafted with Studio D'Artisan's signature craftsmanship, this shirt seamlessly blends timeless workwear details with Japanese-inspired artistry, offering a refined yet retro and nostalgic casual look. The fabric is made from 100% cotton and draws inspiration from traditional boro noragi workwear. It features a heavyweight, blurred plaid weave, accented with sashiko stitching for added texture and visual depth. The fabric of this shirt is crafted from a blend of thick, uneven slub yarn and heathered yarn, both made from 100% cotton. These yarns are dyed in multiple colors and used for both the warp and weft during the weaving process. The result is a heavy, rugged fabric with a blurred plaid pattern in earthy tones, offering a richly textured and tactile feel. Further enhancing the design, white threads are randomly sashiko-stitched across the woven base fabric, both horizontally and vertically, adding depth and visual interest. By combining the rugged texture of the slub plaid base fabric with sashiko stitching, this piece beautifully recreates the look and feel of traditional Japanese boro textiles. As part of the finishing process, the garment is pre-washed (also known as one-wash) to minimize shrinkage and give it a well-worn, broken-in appearance. This Studio D'artisan's shirt features a front button closure with six corozo nut buttons, regular collar with a collar band, two-button cuffs with cuff slits, set-in sleeves, chest patch pockets with button closures on both sides, a shoulder back yoke, a rounded shirttail with side gussets. This product is available in Japanese (Asian) sizes, which typically run slightly smaller than standard US and EU sizes. For example, a tagged size Japan 38 generally fits someone who wears a US/EU size S to M or garments sized 36 to 38. The shirt features a modern fit - neither too tight nor too loose - with a well-balanced body length. It is versatile enough to wear on its own or as a layering piece under a jacket. This piece is a brand-new original creation from Studio D'Artisan, combining the classic style of work shirts with traditional Japanese artistry inspired by boro, noragi, and sashiko textiles - brought to life through Studio D'Artisan's signature craftsmanship.

About Boro, Noragi, and Sashiko

Boro, Noragi, and Sashiko are traditional elements of Japanese workwear culture, each rooted in practicality, sustainability, and craftsmanship.

Boro refers to patched and mended textiles, often made from layers of old fabric that were stitched together over time to extend their lifespan. Originally a symbol of frugality and necessity, boro has come to be appreciated for its rich textures, visible repairs, and historical beauty.

Noragi are traditional Japanese workwear worn by farmers and laborers. Over time, many noragi garments were repaired using boro techniques, resulting in garments full of character and heritage.

Sashiko, meaning "little stabs," is a form of decorative reinforcement stitching. Originally used to strengthen and repair garments, it also creates beautiful, geometric patterns that give fabric both texture and visual appeal. Sashiko is still used today in both traditional textiles and modern design, celebrated for its function and artistry.

Closure Type (Placket Style) : This shirt features a full-button front closure with a standard front placket and six vertically aligned buttonholes. The buttons are 4-hole corozo buttons, known for their durability and natural texture. The front placket includes vertical buttonholes.

Collar Type : Standard collar with a collar stand (also known as a collar band) for added structure and shape.

Cuff Type : Two-button adjustable cuffs, allowing you to customize the fit of the sleeve openings. Each cuff is complemented by a sleeve placket (cuff slit), making it easy to put the shirt on and take it off.

Hem Type : Curved hem with rounded shirttails and reinforced side gussets. This classic detail is often found on rare vintage shirts and high-quality modern reproductions. The gussets are located where the side seams meet the hem, providing added durability and a traditional touch.

Pocket : Classic-style dual chest patch pockets with button closures. Each pocket features rounded bottom corners, while the top corners are reinforced with bar tacks for added strength and durability.

Yoke type : Classic shoulder back yoke design. The yoke is constructed with two layers of fabric to reinforce the shoulders and enhance durability at high-stress areas.
