Today, we continue to introduce items from the CURLY&Co. 25AW COLLECTION.
At this time of year, on the border between summer and autumn and with the inconsistent weather, we have introduced a shirt that can be used as a light jacket, a main piece, or to spice up a layered style.

Store manager Tanaka is also a fan of this item, and says he’s been wearing it often in the store lately.
It’s a fun piece that can be worn casually or dressed up…
We’d like to introduce the SHADOW STRIPE BAND COLLAR SHIRT, a band collar shirt made from piqué soccer jersey.

The material is lightweight and firm, knitted at 36 gauge using elastic PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) yarn.

It feels gentle against the skin, and the textured surface of the fabric makes it a smooth, breathable garment. It also stays in place even when unbuttoned and worn as a jacket, making it an easy item to incorporate into your outfits even when the weather’s still hot.

While the look is autumnal, the material feels like summer.
Of course, you’ll feel comfortable wearing it as the seasons change.

According to store manager Tanaka, the stretch is incredible, and he says it might even be more comfortable to wear than a t-shirt.

The silhouette is a simple, regular fit with just the right amount of room.

The hem is rounded, giving the shirt a clean, soft impression.

The shadow stripe, which is the item’s defining feature, has little variation in color intensity, so it’s unique without being too assertive, making it easy for anyone to wear.

The band collar is also a key feature, as it gives the shirt the feel of a crew neck cut and sew, making it a different look than usual for those who are tired of basic shirts or who just don’t like collared shirts.

Another plus point is that it pairs well with a wide range of items and is easy to coordinate.
The cuffs are finished with a “go-go” finish.

This is the name for the finish used at the cuff opening. It’s called the “go-go” finish because the piping advances and then returns to the same position, which is probably why it’s called that. It’s a funny name, isn’t it? lol

By the way, the buttons, chosen in a color that complements the shirt, are plant-based nut buttons made from tagua palm.

Pair it classic with slacks or with more casual bottoms.
For a unisex look, try pairing it with a skirt or overalls…

The SHADOW STRIPE BAND COLLAR SHIRT is a long-lasting piece that can be incorporated into your outfits right away.
