The FOB Factory F3512 Western Shirt in Ecru is a refined reinterpretation of the classic Western shirt, crafted entirely in Kojima, Kurashiki, one of Japan’s most respected centers of denim and workwear production. Every stage—from fabric development to sewing and finishing—is carried out by skilled artisans, ensuring exceptional quality and authenticity.

This model is made from a heavy, durable work twill, inspired by the rugged textiles found in American workwear of the 1990s. The fabric, originally used in coveralls, offers impressive toughness and structure while gradually softening and conforming to the body with wear. Over time, it develops a personal look and feel that reflects the wearer’s lifestyle.

A defining feature of the F3512 is its set of turquoise snap buttons, which add a subtle but distinctive contrast against the ecru twill. This detail gives the shirt a unique vintage character, elevating it from a functional workwear piece to a standout garment suitable for both layering and wearing on its own.

The silhouette has been updated for contemporary styling, offering a clean and comfortable fit while preserving the Western identity through classic paneling and pointed yokes. Reinforced stitching and meticulous construction highlight the level of craft that Kojima is known for.

Fit Notes: FOB shirts tend to run a bit small compared to American sizing. We generally recommend going one size up from your usual US size. For example, if you normally wear a size M in American brands, you’ll likely get the best fit with a size 3 (L) in this shirt. As always, we suggest checking our size chart to ensure the ideal fit.
