Simple and Beautiful, Artisan Shirts

Philosophy Artisan's Philosophy: The Face is Brought Close, Its Contours Can Be Seen for Better or Worse

The shape of the collar's return line is crucial in naturally directing the viewer's gaze towards the face.
A straight collar return line causes the gaze to move past too quickly.

We pursued a natural and elegant collar that considers even such movements of the gaze.

Pattern Timeless Elegance

Designed by Junnosuke Ohno of Amiko Fashions, who created dresses for many celebrities in 1960s New York.

The shirt, which took over 4 years to perfect in pursuit of function and beauty, adds a gentle impression to a dignified appearance.

Design with Purpose

Soft tailoring that's not overly formal.
Looks elegant even in a relaxed style with the first button undone.
We pursued a collar that harmonizes with any jawline.

The Ultimate New York-Style Tailoring

Mr. Junosuke Ohno, a master of Japanese draping techniques, studied in America during a period when New York's functional style was elevated by Parisian refinement, creating an advanced era of draping.
As a result, the garments he designs possess both a beautiful silhouette and a light, comfortable fit.
Since coming to Japan in 1965, Mr. Ohno has contributed to the development of the Japanese apparel industry by training over 10,000 pattern makers and working on the standardization of sizes, which laid the foundation for industrialization.

Luxurious Fabric that Highlights the Beauty of the Pattern

We have selected a 100% cotton fabric from Thomas Mason, the world's oldest textile manufacturer. This fabric combines a beautiful sheen with exceptional durability, making it highly practical.
The tightly woven, stable broadcloth fabric enables the New York-style draping technique to achieve a light, effortless wear.
