is there a drop tomorrow?

The Kindred Spirits stuff, knit restocks and bottoms we’ve previewed on IG will be next week. Everything else later.

All next week.

Just curious, what makes a kurta a kurta? I have a long band collar popover shirt from camoshita that I think was advertised just like that and have seen some other Japanese brands call them “long shirts.” The one I have doesn’t have pockets. Anyways, is there anything distinctively that would make it a kurta?

A kurta is the name for a long shirt in India. There are many, many different designs. You frequently find them with a single, on the side seam pocket, though some have two and some have none.

I'd add that one thing that separates a kurta from a long shirt is that kurta is popover and has a half placket!

Nope - lots of full placket Kurt's in India.

I was excited about this shirt but damn.. it’s sick.

Was it supposed to have an 18 East tag on the outside though?

Cool shirt. Like the New Balances with it.

Honestly they’re just some $30 beaters I bought for work, but I’m team NB all day.
