Summer means T-shirts. However, it is surprisingly difficult to choose the right one. Plain colors are boring, and artistic graphics can be too assertive. What is desirable is a good balance of exquisite playfulness and humor, and a design that is relaxed enough to be comfortable.
To that end, we present the T-shirt collection of Bambu Shoot, a lifestyle brand from Nakameguro, Tokyo.
Among the outdoor activities in which the brand specializes, this season's theme is "backpacking," with graphics provided by distinguished artists from Japan and abroad, including Ken Kagami, a contemporary artist, and Jerry Ukai, an art director with a deep knowledge of the outdoors.
BACKPACK Designed by Ken Kagami ¥4,400
DO NOT PASS Designed by Jerry Ukai ¥4,950
PARADISE BEACH Designed by Noriteru Minezaki ¥4,400
HEAVY AS HELL Designed by Hikaru Matsubara ¥4,400
LOOK BACK Designed by Takeshi Kosii ¥4,950
Go outside. Designed by She Chimp ¥4,400
All of them are finished in a tasteful way that makes them look like souvenirs, and the body is made of 100% cotton with a rich texture and water-absorbent and quick-drying types are on standby. The lineup includes T-shirts that can be used not only for daily life, but also for activities of all kinds.
Do you choose by favorite artist, favorite graphic, or by material depending on the application? Frankly, it's a tough decision, but check out this fascinating collection of T-shirts that will add color to your summer.
