Relaxed fit with extra room through the silhouette.
A 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.
The 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.
Fit and sizing
Relaxed, 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.
Fabric and care
Polyester 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.
Colours
Black with green bamboo, or apricot. Black is the classic pairing.
How to wear it
Wear it untucked over wide trousers or tailored shorts. Loafers or sandals. Keep everything else plain.
Why 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.
The 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.
Pairs well with the sokai men's cotton-linen harem trousers and the wide lantern work pants. Also in the same family: the embroidered mandarin collar shirt.
More shirts with knotted fastenings sit in Japanese shirts and Japanese embroidered clothing. Our guide to Japanese patterns covers bamboo and other motifs.
