IKYU’S DRAGON Men's "Brushed Cotton" Long Sleeve Shirt
Color / Red and Multi-color Care Instruction
Japanese name/ 意休の龍 (Ikyu no Ryu)
(Featured in the Edo-era Kabuki drama “Sukeroku Yukari No Edo Zakura”.
-About-
On the gorgeous kabuki stage, the setting from which this pattern was taken, we are transported to feudal Japan, when samurai and bushi still had important roles in the land.
Ikyu, the main character of this kabuki drama, is wearing the boldly elegant, lavishly embroidered dragon kimono, which “explodes” on stage. Worn with confidence, Ikyu’s full intention is to distinguish his importance as well as his high ranking.
The origin of the exquisite symbols within this costume can be traced all the way back to ancient Chinese mythology.
The five-clawed dragon, considered god-like, is said to have been worn only by nobles. Mythological mountains, clouds, waves and flames, are all freshly represented to signify great wealth, strength, and abundance.
We have been been given official permission to use this extraordinary pattern from the Shochiku Costume Company in Tokyo, to which Pagong has implemented the dye technique of Kyoto Yuzen.
100% Brushed Cotton : As its name suggests, brushed cotton is cotton that’s finished with a brushing technique.
The fabric is luxuriously smooth and as soft as a “lived-in” shirt with the elegance of a premium material. In other words, it’s cotton, but BETTER!

・Urban style
・Hand-wash
・Currency : US Dollar (USD)
