Sportivo Store Lot.108 50S Italian Collar Shirt Hand Drawn Sumi

During the post-war economic boom, Italian collar shirts were popular at resorts. Characterized by the opening curvier than open collar shirts, it was a perfect item to look relaxed when T-shirts were still not part of the resort culture. Inspired by marbling works created with sumi ink by Kamisoe, a karakami workshop based in Kyoto, we hand-painted our original kasuri-patterned cotton- rayon fabric with sumi ink to capture the subtle nuances of brushstrokes crafted by a Yuzen dyeing artisan. Each piece is truly one of a kind, as the hand-drawn brushstrokes and variations in shading differ slightly from item to item.
