Not Your Dad’s Plaids

Take on the weekends with “The Ripper” shirt with multiple vintage inspired plaid patterns and colorways. Soft doesn't even begin to describe this mid to heavyweight flannel. We implemented a “Double Brushed” technique to these shirts, brushing both before AND after it is garment washed. Taking this extra step adds to the time of making the shirt but the result is a perfectly fitting, extremely comfortable and versatile plaid shirt with the style of something found at a vintage shop. We brush this sturdy 100% cotton fabric to perfection for added softness and warmth.

Inspired by classic garments, KATO focuses on combining the modern need for comfort with the love for vintage pieces. Taking inspiration from hardware, stitching and even machinery used and blending it with innovative blends of fabric and new fits, KATO is dedicated to creating timeless pieces that you’ll hold on to for years. We’ve developed signature materials like our 4 Way Stretch that consists of combining traditional Japanese denim and a 4 Way Stretch material allowing us to create the most comfortable pair of selvedge jeans from day one of wearing them. That innovation also led KATO to develop Denit®, a new knit material that looks like denim but essentially feels like loungewear giving you comfort and style wherever you go. Our garments are inspired by classic menswear designs that have stood the test of time with fashion for decades. Our goal is to produce pieces that you’ll be wearing for years to come by combining our passion for vintage menswear with the modern need for comfort.
