Hadagi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hadagi a type of Japanese shirt attire employed by the samurai class mainly within the times of the Sengoku period (16th century) of Japan. The Hadagi is generally the same as a normal juban (shirt), measuring around two to four sun in length. Hadagi will be made of either linen, silk crepe, or cotton cloth. Because Hadagi are only worn within a cold climate, lined Hadagi are preferred as better than a single one. The sleeves on this Hadagi type shirt are rather narrow, and are at times omitted together.
