Khadi Ox Clover Knot Shirt

The clover, with its timeless association with good fortune, inspired this elegant and distinctive shirt. A softly puffed knot adds a charming detail, creating a silhouette that feels both refined and playful.

The fabric is Indian khadi—hand-spun and hand-woven with care in village homes across India. With its natural slubs and occasional flecks of cotton, khadi embraces imperfection as part of its beauty. The gentle texture and warm volume of this cloth have a character that modern machines simply cannot replicate—one of the many reasons we love it. It is an enduring symbol of craftsmanship.

To share the unique charm of khadi with more people, we created a khadi oxford—a first for 45R. It retains the signature lightness of khadi while offering a sense of opacity and security. The result is a shirt that feels airy yet grounded, soft yet structured, all in keeping with the spirit of Japanese craftsmanship and the thoughtful design 45R is known for.
