Introducing the latest masterpiece from Pure Blue Japan, the renowned purveyor of indigo perfection: the Heavy Knitted Slub Raglan Tee. Crafted with their signature attention to detail and commitment to quality, this tee is a testament to the brand's legacy of creating indigo garments that only get better with time.
Constructed in a classic raglan style, this tee boasts a V-neck design for a touch of contemporary flair. But what truly sets it apart is the remarkable knitted slub fabric. The irregularly spun cotton yarns lend a distinctive texture that evolves beautifully over time, revealing the countless shades of indigo with each wear.
At the bottom of this tee lies the iconic Shoai Leaf Embroidery, a symbol of Pure Blue Japan's heritage and craftsmanship. It's a nod to tradition in a garment that's anything but conventional.
Indigo, with its timeless allure, takes center stage once again. Universally flattering and steeped in history, it's no wonder indigo-dyed clothing remains a perennial favorite. From its humble beginnings in Japanese workwear to its ubiquitous presence in modern closets, indigo continues to captivate and inspire.
All PBJ tees run smaller in size compared to your regular American size. Typically, if you wear a size M in American t-shirts, you will need to select a size 4 (L) in this. However, individual body types can vary, so, as always, we recommend consulting our size chart for the perfect fit.
Pure Blue Japan is the dream of Kenichi Iwaya. Passionate about denim, he grew up in Okayama and acquired experience working in different mills around the region, until in 1997 he decided to create his own brand. Ever since, Iwaya-San has been obsessed with producing incredible fabrics with unique, slubby textures and a distinct character. This is why he only works with shuttle looms from Ibara, Okayama, using only the best cottons from the United States and India. Since its emergence until today, Pure Blue Japan has consolidated its position as one of the touchstone labels in Japanese Denim, and its excellent work has established it as one of the masters of indigo dye.
