Samurai - Heavy Weight "Night Owl" Printed T-shirt Black [SCT26-101]

A graphic tee built on Samurai’s core heavyweight platform, the “Night Owl” pairs their signature slubby jersey with one of their in-house illustrated designs, leaning into the brand’s mix of folklore and after-hours imagery.

The fabric uses raw cotton spun into thick #14 slub yarns, then slowly knitted on vintage Daimaruki circular machines, creating a dense, textured jersey with a dry hand that softens and molds with wear. It’s substantial without feeling stiff, built to break in over time.

The “Night Owl” graphic is printed across the back, reflecting Samurai’s storytelling approach; typically drawing on nocturnal themes and traditional symbolism reworked through a modern lens. 

Finished with a triple-needle binder neck, the collar is built to hold its shape through repeated wear. In black, the print sits with stronger contrast and depth, while the fabric’s natural irregularity gives the surface a subtle, broken-in feel over time.
