As A Layering Piece

All of AKASHI-KAMA’s noragis are made with unique & high quality fabrics from Japan—making it the perfect piece to use as a subtle detail layer. Wear it as a mid-layer under a thicker jacket, or as an outer layer over a sweatshirt. Our Noragi gold ends, whether tied or left hanging, look great with chore coats or techwear styled pockets.

Dress It Up - Formalwear

Pairing a Noragi with more formalwear like a button-down or a tie gives it a whole new aesthetic. Fold over the collar for some extra collar room and pair it with a mock neck for a true flex. Merlot optional.

Our Haori Shirt is a short sleeve cousin of our Noragi style. It is designed for Spring and Summer seasons made from a ridiculously soft and breezy Japanese double gauze fabric. Styling a Haori is slightly different than a Noragi, as we usually recommend wearing it over a simple tank top or tonal tee.
