Introduction:
Yusuke Kurosawa made a polyester T-shirt using the pattern of Merino Basic Tee Short Sleeve. The size is the same as the Merino Basic Tee Short Sleeve.

Yusuke Kurosawa encourage people wearing merino wool T-shirts for long-term traverse and everyday life. However, synthetic fiber materials such as polyester also have merits. Since the material itself is inexpensive, the product price can be kept down and daily care is possible without being as careful as merino wool. Durability and quick-drying will also be better with polyester.

Of course, there are some disadvantages, and as you use polyester T-shirts, the smell becomes more noticeable. Compared to natural fibers such as cotton and wool, chemical fibers are harder to remove sebum stains, and polyester is especially easy to adsorb. In addition, chemical fibers are prone to the growth of odor-causing bacteria. Therefore, merino wool is definitely recommended for long-term vertical runs where you want to reduce your luggage as much as possible, but in situations where you can change clothes immediately, such as a day hike, a quick-drying, highly durable polyester T-shirt will be an option.

* If you smell it, please try the following steps.
1. Wash odorous part with powdered oxygen bleach.
2. Fill a washbasin with hot water of about 40 to 50 °C, mix the specified amount of powdered oxygen bleach, and leave the laundry for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
3. After soaking, rinse and spin using a washing machine.
4. After spin, do not leave it and dry it immediately. Leaving after spin can also cause odor.

Design:
As the product name calls "Basic", the simple box-shaped design allows you to continue wearing it from the mountain to the city.

The specifications of the neck use "rib collar". The shoulder line, sleeve attachment line, and side line are all flat seamer treated.

"Flat seamer" is a specification that uses a special sewing machine to match and sew the fabric as shown in the illustration on the left. As the name suggests, the seams of the fabric are very flat and reduce the stress on the skin as much as possible. It is a manufacturing method that is often used for sportswear and baby wear because the seams are also durable.

A brand name tag is sewn on the hem.

Size Chart:
* Since the pattern of Merino Basic Tee Short Sleeve is used, the size is the same as Merino Basic Tee Short Sleeve.

This product is available in men's size (Men) and women's size (Women). The overall silhouette is not so different between the men's size (Men) and the women's size (Women), but the women's size (Women) has a silhouette that more closely matches the female body shape, such as length and shoulder width. Please check the size chart on the left for details.
