Description
Juban Shitagi is a traditional Japanese shirt, worn under kimono, as a causal shirt, under shirt or pajama top. Traditionally the juban shitagi would be worn under the kimono to help keep the samurai cool and to prevent their sweat from damaging the outer kimono top they wear. In home samurai would often wear this traditional under shirt as a casual shirt, while lounging in their home or while they sleep. Today, modern warriors wear juban shitagi under their Iaido Gi, Kendo Gi or as a light training Gi top. They also make for a traditional casual top, great for hot, humid summer nights. These traditional juban shitagi are perfect for anyone wanting a traditional samurai under shirt for training, cosplay, re-enactment or for a casual traditional fashion.

However if you would like a longer length, you can select “Custom Size” and have your traditional shitagi made custom for you. Commonly worn under a Traditional Hakama-Shita.

Ordered narrow sleeve style, it was made incorrectly, sleeves looked like it was the wider sleeves just sewn partially inward toward the armpit in an attempt to make the narrow sleeve style I ordered.

Japanese clothing might seem odd to European. All clothing have been made from traditional patterns with review of original clothing, from the 16 ~ 17 century. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask us and we can provide you with specific references.

Liked the quality but the length of the arms and wideness were incorrectly sent based of the receipt, because the order took two months to deliver returning seemed inconvenient, for some reason this review doesn’t have the option comment on the other shintagi I ordered but it also had the same issue. The print came out nice but there was no way to know what it would look like in the store, example pictures would have been appreciated to show what the different placement options would have looked like

Thank you for your comment and review. As noted on the top of every page, including the view cart and order page there is roughly a 2 week delay in order processing due to back orders and pandemic issues. This is in addition to the stated 2 to 4 weeks for crafting time (more towards 4 weeks if a mon is selected to be printed). The images of the mon (front / back) should be shown when clicking the ? next to the option or when cycling through the product images. We always ask that if you have any questions, doubts or concerns, to please ask us before placing your order so we may address them, insuring that you know exactly what you are ordering and are not surprised.
If there was an error with your order, please let us know so we may have a chance to resolve the issue.
