Folklore Bakeneko Ukiyo-E Style Open Collar Shirt

The monster cat depicted on this item is based on the "bakeneko" (bake-neko) and "nekomata" (cat demon) that appear in Japanese yokai folklore.
-DESIGN & SILHOUETTE-
The open collar and loose style are suitable for street fashion and casual scenes, and are a perfect fusion of tradition and modernity.
The cat's face is drawn large all over the shirt, creating a powerful impact.
"Pattern that radiates presence"
The cat's eyes are wide open, emphasizing the red pupils. In yokai paintings, animals' eyes are often painted red to express a supernatural presence. In addition, the fangs are abnormally large, emphasizing ferocity.
Fine lines are used to depict the cat's fur, recreating the meticulous brushwork unique to ukiyo-e prints from the Edo period. The black spotted pattern is a sign of the cat's deformed form, creating a creepiness that is different from that of a normal cat.
The cat on the back symbolizes the "grudge" and "anger" embodied by the power of monsters and vengeful spirits, and is often depicted with motifs of waves and smoke in "monster paintings" from the Edo period, suggesting that the monster cat's monster-like existence has appeared in this world from another world.
-FABRIC-
The smooth, silky texture makes it extremely comfortable to wear, and the fake Tencel material, which has a beautiful sheen, is lightweight and soft, and is resistant to static electricity, so it doesn't feel uncomfortable against the skin.
-STYLING-
A playful American casual x Ukiyo-e style that's perfect for this year, this is a recommended piece that captures the trend.
