{"product_id":"chinese-bamboo-embroidered-shirt","title":"Men's Chinese Shirt with Bamboo Embroidery","description":"\u003cp\u003eA short sleeve Chinese shirt with bamboo embroidered across the chest. Knotted fastenings sit alongside a plain button placket. The collar is flat and the hem straight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe embroidery is worked in green against black and placed to one side instead of in the centre. It keeps the shirt from looking like a costume and lets the bamboo read as a single detail you notice up close, not a pattern you see from across the street. Calm. Precise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelaxed, with a straight hem. Sizes run XS to M. Our model wears M. The supplier publishes no measurement chart for this piece, so take your usual size, or the largest if you are between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFabric and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyester in a smooth weave that holds its shape through a warm day. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. No bleach. Hang to dry. Cool iron only, never over the embroidery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eColours\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack with green bamboo, or apricot. Black is the classic pairing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWear it untucked over wide trousers or tailored shorts. Loafers or sandals. Keep everything else plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy bamboo? In Chinese and Japanese art it stands for resilience, bending in wind without breaking. It is one of the oldest motifs on traditional clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knotted fastenings are part decoration, part function. The button placket does the real closing, so you can leave the knots as they are and still get dressed in seconds. Small, practical, traditional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"amj-pairs\"\u003ePairs well with the \u003ca href=\"\/en-au\/products\/sokai-harem-trousers\"\u003esokai men's cotton-linen harem trousers\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/en-au\/products\/lantern-pants\"\u003ewide lantern work pants\u003c\/a\u003e.
