Samurai Jeans' SJST-ML T-shirt exemplifies the brand's dedication to traditional craftsmanship and premium materials. Constructed from heavyweight cotton, this T-shirt offers a substantial feel while ensuring comfort. The fabric is knitted on vintage circular knitting machines known as "Daimaruki," widely used in Japan during the first half of the 20th century. This method produces a firm yet supple texture, enhancing the T-shirt's durability and softness. The tubular knit design eliminates side seams, providing a clean silhouette and reducing potential friction. A triple-stitched collar adds to the garment's resilience, maintaining its shape over time. Pre-washed to minimize shrinkage, the SJST-ML is a versatile addition to any wardrobe, embodying Samurai Jeans' commitment to quality and authenticity.
We've been eyeballing these blanks for some time and are so excited to bring this incredible option to the store.

Fit Notes: In general, Samurai tops fit a bit small. They've modified this shirt to have a bit more room in the chest this round. We would recommend starting with one size above your norm, and then going up once more from there if you want something other than a tailored fit. Tommy is wearing an XL in the photos. This variation has a slightly longer length in the body than the standard SJST-M variation. He is 5'10,' 165lbs with a 40" chest. His North American size is M and his Japanese size is L.
