Shirts with a vintage feel, produced on old-fashioned looms

This band collar shirt from FOB FACTORY features a clean neckline and a textured fabric that looks great when washed. The fabric is carefully woven on an old-fashioned power loom, allowing you to enjoy the changes that occur over time as it develops a more refined appearance with wear. This is everyday wear for adults, available in two different fabrics: Oxford and Chambray.

Vintage-inspired materials

The fabrics vary depending on the color: White uses oxford, while Blue uses selvedge chambray, both original FOB FACTORY materials.
The oxford fabric used in White features the rustic texture of cotton and a deep, vintage-inspired look. It's woven with tightly twisted yarn on an old-fashioned power loom at relaxed tension, a process similar to handweaving, resulting in a fabric with a unique, uneven texture. The surface texture, known as "grain," created by this tightly twisted yarn remains constant even after repeated washing, providing a smooth feel and high durability.

Blue uses original selvedge chambray woven on an old-fashioned power loom using yarn dyed indigo using a time-consuming process called "skein dyeing," in which the yarn is bundled and dyed. While the fabric has a beautiful appearance even when new, it ages exceptionally well with repeated wear and washing. While this material is typically used for work shirts, its refined band collar gives it a sophisticated, sophisticated look suitable for everyday adult wear.

The classic-inspired Band Collar Shirt is inspired by the design of British military band collar shirts. The band collar creates a clean, streamlined neckline for a sophisticated look. Rolled stitching is used on key areas like the armholes and sides for a simple, elegant look and exceptional durability. The subtle shine of the cat's eye shell buttons adds a touch of luxury, while vintage-inspired details like the triangular hem, rolled stitching, and left-over thread at the sides create a crafted finish. The slightly wider body and slightly longer length exude a relaxed, sophisticated feel. Deep side slits ensure ease of movement, and the classic, rounded front hem pairs well with wide-leg pants or shorts. Wear it just right for a smart look, or go up one size for a more casual look. This shirt has a washed-out texture and is perfect for enjoying changes over time. Made entirely in Japan, it's a testament to the reliable quality of its craftsmanship.

Available in unisex men's sizes S and M. According to a 162cm female staff member, the S size felt just right and relaxed, while the M size felt oversized and relaxed, allowing for a versatile fit. It's versatile enough to coordinate with a wide range of outfits, from everyday styles paired with simple denim or chinos to layered with fall and winter knitwear. Perfect for wearing on its own or as a jacket, this shirt was created with the goal of creating a garment you'll be glad you bought even years from now.
The BAND COLLAR SHIRT combines the unique texture of an old-fashioned loom with a band collar design that looks great unwashed. Enjoy the unique characteristics of both the oxford and chambray fabrics, making it a piece you'll love and wear for years to come.

World-class Kojima brand

Kojima, a textile town located at the southern tip of Okayama Prefecture, is a world-class producer of denim. FOB FACTORY started its activities in 1992, where local people work together to make clothes. After experiencing various denim booms, such as Levi's, the second-hand clothing boom, and the emergence of many imported denim brands, we have created clothes that are not just for looks, but that you will be happy to buy after 2-3 years of wearing them. I came up with the idea that I want to have a positive impact on the lives of those who wear the clothes I make. Craftsmanship made in Japan denim. Threads, fabrics, sewing, buttons, zippers, etc. It seems that designs are born naturally and inevitably by making use of the developed fabrics and techniques, and by thinking about the body itself and life to wear.
