A modern interpretation of the classic Breton shirt, crafted in Japan from a lightweight blend of linen and traditional Japanese washi fibres. The unique fabric combines the natural texture of linen with the crisp, dry touch of washi paper, resulting in a knit that feels exceptionally breathable while maintaining its structure.
Designed with Nanamica's relaxed approach to everyday clothing, the silhouette features clean proportions, a boat neckline and timeless navy stripes across a natural base. The subtle texture and lightweight construction make it ideal for layering through spring and summer, while its understated design ensures year-round versatility.
An elevated wardrobe staple that reflects Nanamica's balance of heritage, technical innovation and functional simplicity.
