"An Easy-Care Shirt That Feels Like 100% Cotton"

Driven by this vision, we developed J-TECH EASY CARE (formerly Known as PALPA Premium)—a special yarn made by wrapping cotton around recycled polyester. After three years of development and seven years on the market, it has become our No.1 best-selling fabric, loved for its exceptional comfort and durability. With only cotton touching your skin, it delivers the natural feel of cotton with a refined sheen. Comfort, functionality, and sustainability—this proudly Japan-made shirt offers it all. Experience the difference today.

※ As of January 2025, "PALPA" has been renamed "J-TECH EASY CARE".


Easy Care in 3 Simple Steps


The Easy-Care Shirt is the perfect companion for busy professionals. Simply wash and dry as usual—no extra effort needed. If wrinkles are a concern, a light ironing will do the trick. Enjoy a crisp, clean look effortlessly, without the hassle.


1. Wash
Machine washable just like a 100% cotton shirt. Turn inside out and use a laundry net to extend the life of the fabric and buttons. Gentle cycle recommended.

2. Dry
After spinning, gently smooth out wrinkles and shape the shirt before hanging. This helps reduce wrinkles as it dries.

3. Wear
Wrinkles naturally relax as the fabric dries. Ready to wear the moment you take it off the hanger.


Features of J-TECH EASY CARE

Wrinkle Resistance

Unlike conventional wrinkle-resistant fabrics that rely on surface coatings or resin treatments, J-TECH EASY CARE achieves the same effect through its unique yarn structure.

It has earned a 3.5 rating on the Wash & Wear scale, ensuring long-lasting easy-care performance even after repeated washing.

 

Quick-Drying

The outer cotton absorbs moisture, while the inner polyester speeds up drying—combining the best of both materials.

As a result, it dries three times faster than a 100% cotton shirt. Even on humid days, during overnight washes, indoor drying, or when damp from sweat or rain, you’ll notice the difference.



Aesthetics

Many wrinkle-resistant shirts can have the shiny appearance typical of synthetic fibers. However, J-TECH EASY CARE features cotton on all parts that touch the skin or are visible on the outside, giving it a natural, refined sheen.

Designed for those who appreciate the comfort and texture of cotton, this easy-care shirt combines both elegance and functionality.

Of course, it retains premium details like Japanese craftsmanship, flat-felled seams, and natural shell buttons.

Environmental Consideration

The core of the yarn is made from recycled PET bottles, while the outer cotton is blended with high-quality Australian cotton. This minimizes the use of bleaching agents (chemicals) and reduces water consumption during washing, achieving "Less Chemical & Less Water."

Additionally, this unique structure allows us to reduce the use of cotton by approximately 30%, making it a more sustainable choice.

 



Wash & Wear (W&W) Performance

W&W performance refers to the measure of how much wrinkle remains after washing.
It indicates the fabric's ability to maintain a smooth, neat appearance with minimal effort post-wash.



Generally, a rating of 2.5 or higher is considered suitable for wearing straight out of the wash. With a 3.5 rating, J-TECH EASY CARE delivers exceptional wrinkle resistance, making it an ideal choice for dress shirts that maintain a sharp, smooth look without extra effort.



Comparison with Standard Wrinkle-Resistant Shirts

100% Cotton × Chemical Treatment

Easy-care properties are added through chemical treatments or resin processing. While labeled as 100% cotton, the fabric tends to feel stiff and has an unnatural texture. Over time, with repeated washing, the wrinkle resistance diminishes, leading to a loss in its long-lasting performance.

100% Polyester

While 100% polyester is easy-care and resistant to wrinkles, it tends to have a sporty look and is less suitable for dress shirts. The fabric lacks the natural feel of cotton and may not provide the refined appearance expected in more formal attire.

Polyester Blend

Easy to maintain while retaining some of cotton’s texture. However, since the polyester fibers are exposed, it has a slightly unnatural appearance and a firmer feel against the skin.



J-TECH Easy Care Yarn

With a polyester core wrapped in cotton, this unique structure offers a natural look and texture while maintaining its wrinkle resistance even after washing. Traditional easy-care shirts often required compromises. But with Kamakura Shirt’s easy-care shirt, you no longer have to sacrifice appearance or functionality.





Yarn Structure of J-Tech Easy Care


Selected for METI’s "Manufacturing Supply Chain Reconstruction Support Project"

With its selection for the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) initiative, Kamakura Shirts partnered with Unitika Tokiwa Factory in Okayama, known for its top-tier spinning technology in Japan. After three years of development, this collaboration led to the creation of the world’s first J-TECH EASY CARE yarn, which was patented in 2019. This innovative yarn features a recycled polyester core wrapped in cotton, combining Indian premium cotton with high-whiteness Australian luxury cotton in a unique blend, achieving both functionality and a refined look.

Comprehensive wilderness medicine reference
Format: Paperback
First off, this book should be supplement to actual in-person first aid training and course work. I only have my background in Boy Scouts and work required first aid/cpr/stop the bleed response to base this upon. But there is no substitute for competent in-person and hands on training, even if you have excellent books for reference. That said, this book does have a very thorough guide on most issues that could be faced in wilderness and emergency situations. The cross over for urban use, would be situations like a natural disaster that renders hospitals and EMS unavailable or over capacity. It's a very affordable book for all the information it contains, and is published by a reputable school. NOLS has been teaching outdoors skills since it was formed in the 1960s. If you can keep a level head and have decent reading comprehension, this book lays out diagnostic and treatment advice for many life threatening injuries and accidents. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking to expand and supplement their knowledge beyond basic first aid and CPR.

Had an older edition and bought the most current edition. Very well written.
Format: Paperback
Classic text. Written at the college level. Text treats each topic initially from point of what are the causes of this injury, and how to prevent it. Then it goes into what will need to happen with an occurrence. No pictures, but that's a good thing. There are many drawings which do a better job of highlighting what is important.

Great Reference
Format: Paperback
This is an excellent, concise book with easy-to-read excerpts and diagrams that we are keeping as a reference guide for our Search and Rescue Team, some of whom are Wilderness First Responders but sometimes need additional information.
