Japan Blue Jeans Sashiko Big Shirt Jacket

The "big shirt" cut sits between a shirt and a jacket, longer in the body and wider through the shoulder than a standard shirt, which makes it work as a light outer layer rather than something worn tucked in. In sashiko fabric, the oversized shape gives the raised weave more room to read as texture rather than pattern.

Good for layering over a tee or thin knit without adding bulk, since the fabric itself isn't heavy despite the visual weight of the weave. A quieter alternative to the sashiko jacket if you want the fabric without the more structured Type II shape.
