DETAIL OF ALOHA SHIRT
Utagawa Hiroshige has a strong impression of working on masterpieces such as the Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido. Although he sometimes left anecdotes about warlords in his works, they are rare and are considered very valuable. The theme of this shirt, "Taira no Kiyomori Seeing a Mystery," is one of them.
After moving his capital to Fukuhara (around present-day Kobe), Taira no Kiyomori is haunted by nightmares. One day, when he was standing in front of the garden to see the snow that had fallen, he saw that the pine trees and even the lanterns that had been planted in the garden from the mountains in the distance were filled with countless skeletons, looking at him. This work expresses the story of Kiyomori glaring back at the skeletons, and they melt away in an instant, using an all-over pattern on a Hawaiian shirt. Based on the original triptych, the design is constructed with the image of each scene being projected on the screen while flashing back.

Focusing on the painters of the Edo period, when Japanese arts and culture expanded further, we recreated the works of these great masters on canvas called Aloha shirts to create designs that Japan boasts to the world. Reviving the passion that was put into the present. This series, which began as a collaboration with Katsushika Hokusai's work, has added a new artist to the next development.

Sun Surf Lot 39128 / Kyosai Kawanabe SPECIAL EDITION “Kyosai Manga”
Title: Kyosai Manga
Author: Kyosai Kawanabe / 1881 / Sketch <Metropolitan Museum of Art Collection>
Material: Rayon Fujiet
Print: Overprint
Button: White pearl button
DETAIL OF ALOHA SHIRT
Kyosai Kawanabe, an ukiyo-e artist who was active from the end of the Edo period to the Meiji period. In 1857, he adopted the pseudonym ``Kyosai,'' initially using ``Kyosai,'' but later changing it to ``Kyosai.'' As you can see from this character, he incorporated opposition to society into his work and left many caricatures. His tumultuous history as an artist began at the age of six, when he became a disciple of Utagawa Kuniyoshi, an ukiyo-e artist who had already trained many disciples. There, he carefully observed how humans grappled and fought with each other, thoroughly learning to depict each movement, and his own talent blossomed.
This "Kyosai Manga" depicts skeletons, and the movements of such people's skeletons are vividly depicted. Sun Surf expresses a sense of dynamism by decomposing and reconstructing those rows. He added patterns to the sleeves and collar as accents, incorporating the specifications seen in Aloha shirts from the 1950s and 1960s.

Buzz Rickson’s Lot BR12744 / US NAVY Dungaree Jumper
This denim utility jacket was adopted by the US Navy in the 1930s. Its official name is a dungaree jumper, and the warp threads are dyed with a dark indigo dye to hide stains from work, while the weft threads are made of twisted heather yarn. The buttons are fastened with a G-ring from the back, which is called a "change button." Unlike tuck buttons, they do not require special fastening tools, and since they are not fastened with threads, they have a rational detail that prevents them from falling off due to thread breakage. The collar is a shawl collar with no tip, so that it will not flap even when exposed to strong winds when working on the deck of a ship, and the back of the collar is cut on the bias, so after repeated washing, a unique distortion appears as wrinkles, giving it a deep flavor.

This is the 60's style denim jacket, which is the most familiar design among denim jackets. It evolved from TYPE1 and TYPE 2, shedding its workwear image and becoming fully recognized as a fashion item.
Beloved by many musicians, hippies, surfers, and others during the 1960s to 1970s, it carries a strong association with that era. The denim used in this jacket is woven with original uneven yarn, evoking the atmosphere of the 1960s. It is available in two color variations: one wash and used wash.
