The verdict

A specialized indigo kimono at $176; expensive for most shoppers unless you specifically collect Japanese-inspired indigo shirting.

Fit

Kimono cuts wrap and drape. Sugiaya indigo is typically a fine, refined weave; expect a graceful, flowing fit.

Quality

Sugiaya indigo is a premium Japanese dye tradition. At $176, this should reflect authentic indigo depth and quality weaving.

Price check

Premium specialty pricing. You're buying into Japanese indigo heritage and refining, not generic indigo denim shirting.

Best for

Indigo enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate Japanese dye traditions and are willing to pay for authenticity and craft.

Care

Authentic indigo bleeds heavily; wash cold separately for many cycles; avoid hot water and high heat.

What owners report about Naked & Famous button-ups

Third-party coverage of the shirt line is thin compared with the brand's denim, but the detailed independent review that exists reports solid workmanship on the Japanese-fabric, sewn-in-Canada shirts, with good stitch density throughout. The same owner found the selvedge chambray fabric the highlight of the shirt. Reviewers note the loomstate fabrics behave like raw denim: the care tag on one shirt warned of 8-10% shrinkage in the wash, and the shirt did tighten roughly a half to a full size after laundering.

Strengths: Reviewers single out the Japanese-milled shirt fabrics and consistently good stitch density and construction.
Watch out for: Unsanforized styles shrink substantially in the wash (one care tag warned 8-10%), the kimono-style sleeve lacks a cuff opening so it can't be rolled far, and there are few long-term owner reports on the shirts to draw from.
Sizing: Selvedge styles run generous before washing and can come down a half to a full size after laundering, while the Easy Shirt is described as fitting true to size.
