The Flat Head "Hyaku Tora (Hundred Tigers)" Linen Shirt Blue

Bring an iconic vintage motif to your summer wardrobe with this exclusive linen shirt from The Flat Head. Inspired by the legendary 1950s Hawaiian “Hundred Tigers” pattern—known in Japan as “Hyaku Tora”, one of the finest examples of Japanese-style graphic design—the shirt delivers raw heritage, craftsmanship and style.

Constructed from 100% linen fabric, the shirt is light, breathable and perfect for warmer days. The open-collar design adds a relaxed, resort-inspired look, while the intricate pattern is achieved through indigo dyeing and hand-screen printing — a time-honoured technique that results in slight irregularities and a unique feel with each piece.

Attention to detail is clear: the pockets are pattern-matched (so the “tigers” flow seamlessly across the chest pockets), the main seams feature two-needle “rolled-hem” stitching for durability and vintage appeal, and the coconut-shell buttons add a natural, textured accent that complements the linen fabric and open collar aesthetic.

Presented in a refined indigo colourway, this shirt is a standout piece — whether styled casually over a tee in the evening or worn alone for a refined daytime look. One wash has been applied to minimise shrinkage and ensure the best fit. With wear, you can expect some beautiful ageing as the fabric mellows and fades naturally over time.

Each shirt comes presented in an elegant wooden box, making it not only a garment but also a collectible piece of craftsmanship.
