Button-Ups

$185as of Oct 18, 2026. Check the current price at Kamakura

The verdict

A strong buy for anyone wanting a genuine oxford-cloth button-down with a good collar roll, provided the slimmer-than-regular cut suits you.

Fit

Reviewers describe the cut as on the slimmer end of a regular fit, with more than one recommending sizing up the usual neck size by about half an inch to reach the classic oxford look; the shirt also omits the button above the cuff.

Quality

It carries the traditional oxford details of a front pocket, locker loop, box pleat and a well-rolled pointed collar, and reviewers found the cloth held up in the wash, though the lighter oxford weight creases more easily than heavier cloths.

Price check

One reviewer called USD 100 a fair price for a high-quality Japan-made shirt, so at USD 185 the value depends on the specific fit and finish, but the make is consistently rated as high for the category.

Best for

A shopper who wants an authentic oxford-cloth button-down with classic detailing and prefers a slimmer, lighter-weight shirt.

Care

Machine wash and hang or press promptly, since the lighter oxford cloth wrinkles more readily than heavier weaves.

Kamakura button-ups: what reviews say

Kamakura's button-ups carry a long-standing reputation on menswear forums for construction quality at their price: reviewers point to unfused collars, high stitch density, and mother-of-pearl buttons, and forum owners single out the oxfords' fabric and collar roll. Fit draws the most complaints — some owners find the neck-to-shoulder proportions off, and one reports routinely having the waist taken in rather than wearing the shirts as cut. Durability reports are mostly positive but not universal: one long-term reviewer wore a hole through a sleeve at the elbow and warns against relying on the shirts for heavy rotation. One detailed review also notes cost-saving construction choices, including a plain single-needle side seam with no side gusset despite the shirt's long tails.

Strengths: Owners and reviewers consistently rate the construction details — unfused collars, dense single-needle stitching, mother-of-pearl buttons — as very hard to match at the price, with the oxford-cloth button-downs called out as the line's strongest suit.
Watch out for: Recurring complaints are fit proportions (neck-to-shoulder ratio, waists that owners have altered) and isolated reports of fabric wearing through at the elbows under regular rotation.
Sizing: The line runs four distinct cuts — Tokyo and New York, each in slim and classic — and patterns are cut in centimeters, so reviewers advise working from the cm measurement tables rather than approximate inch conversions.
