TOWNCRAFT / 60s Ombre Rayon Loop-Collar Shirt
TOWNCRAFT’s 60s ombre shirt, highly sought-after in the vintage market, has been reimagined for modern wear.
Based on an archive XL-size shirt, the sleeve length, body length, and sleeve angle have been adjusted to create a modern, well-balanced box silhouette.
The fabric is made from rayon woven in Mitsuke City, Niigata Prefecture, a region known for yarn-dyed textiles. Its subtle luster and natural drape bring a sense of refinement and ease. The ombre check features soft, gradual color transitions that never feel too bold, making it easy to incorporate into adult wardrobes while elevating everyday casual looks with quiet sophistication.

TOWNCRAFT
A representative store brand of JC PENNEY, alongside BIG MAC and PAY-DAY, developed since 1927. Drawing design inspiration from vintage clothing of the 1950s to 1970s, the brand creates garments with greater comfort and ease of wear.
Rayon fabric with delicate depth and shading
Made with rayon fabric woven in Mitsuke City, Niigata (Japan), an area known for yarn-dyed textiles. The subtle tonal pattern created by fine-count yarns and the natural luster of rayon complement each other, creating an elegant atmosphere.
The thin, fluid texture is irresistibly soft and comfortable to the touch. With excellent moisture absorption and breathability, along with rayon’s natural cool touch, this fabric truly shines in Japan’s hot and humid summers.
Details refined with care
The neckline features a simple open collar that looks clean whether worn buttoned or open. The smaller collar, often seen on vintage shirts from the 1960s, adds just the right amount of relaxed feel for a stylish look.
The pattern is carefully matched across the placket, pockets, and sleeves so that the fabric design continues seamlessly. This meticulous construction creates a beautifully unified finish in every detail.
Slits at the sleeve cuffs add a relaxed touch and a subtle accent to the design.
Flat-felled seams are used throughout the garment. The seam allowances are kept away from the skin, ensuring a comfortable feel against the body.
A breezy box silhouette
A relaxed box silhouette with ample room. While drawing on 1960s shirts as its design inspiration, the sleeve length, body length, and sleeve angle have been refined to create a modern silhouette that balances ease of movement with a clean, structured fit.
The flowing drape of rayon and the understated ombre check add a refined, relaxed mood to casual styling. It pairs well with classic bottoms such as denim or chinos, and simply throwing it on brings an effortless look and a well-balanced outfit to your everyday wardrobe.

Staff comment

● Staff Height / Weight: 165cm / 64kg Wearing size: S Body type: Slim (narrow shoulders) Fit: Relaxed Length: Just right I wore size S. It creates a relaxed silhouette with dropped shoulders. Thanks to the drape unique to rayon, the fabric does not spread out to the sides and instead falls cleanly, so it does not feel like the shirt is wearing me. |
|
● Staff Height / Weight: 171cm / 70kg Wearing size: S / M Body type: Standard Fit: Just right / Relaxed Length: Just right I would choose size S for a just-right fit, or size M if I wanted to enjoy a more open, boxy silhouette. Since the open collar is compact, even with the ombre pattern, the area around the face looks clean. |
|
● Staff Height / Weight: 177cm / 73kg Wearing size: M Body type: Standard Fit: Relaxed Length: Just right Size M offers a fit with a comfortable amount of room. Although it is made from 100% rayon, the ombre pattern and sizing give it a tasteful, vintage-like mood. |
|
● Staff Height / Weight: 181cm / 78kg Wearing size: L Body type: Well-built (broad shoulders) Fit: Relaxed Length: Just right I wore size L. There is plenty of room in both the body and shoulders, so even with my well-built frame, I can wear it buttoned up with ease. |
