TOWNCRAFT was established in 1927 as a derivative brand of J.C. Penney. It is one of J.C. Penney's representative store brands, standing alongside names like BIG MAC and PAY-DAY. Unlike the workwear brands of that time, TOWNCRAFT from the 50s to 70s emphasized new materials, ornamentation, and design, symbolizing the good old days of American mass production. By learning the magnificence and depth of clothing from vintage garments, we use those design sources as a foundation to preview and develop TOWNCRAFT for the modern era, focusing on creating more comfortable and wearable apparel.
This item has been updated based on a 1960s TOWNCRAFT shirt. In recent years, TOWNCRAFT ombre shirts have been regarded as premium items in the vintage market. Based on a vintage XL size, we have adjusted the sleeve length, total length, and the angle of the sleeves to create a well-balanced boxy silhouette. It features a pleasant drape for a comfortable feel and allows you to enjoy the aging process of the fabric.
・Features details such as a small collar, rounded chest pockets, and durable, meticulous stitching. ・The ombre check fabric is based on our archives and was yarn-dyed and woven in Mitsuke, a region renowned for its textiles. ・Fine-count threads recreate a unique look with subtle tonal shading. ・The rayon material provides a soft, flowing feel while maintaining a slight plumpness and substantial thickness on the fabric surface.

I am wearing a size M.
It has a classic yet sophisticated vibe that pairs perfectly with well-worn jeans, chinos, or military pants. It also works great with slacks when you want to achieve a cleaner, more refined look. It's rare to find an ombre check with such a refined atmosphere, so I highly recommend grabbing one while you can.
