Straight (T) shirt and shorts (part1)

2026 April 18 (Sat)

Hello.

Last month, at the event for one of our recommended brands, WONDER ROOM ESSE, many people came to visit us from the first day, and many items found new homes.

Among the staff, there is already a growing excitement looking ahead to the arrival of the 26AW collection, and since two items that couldn't make it in time for the event arrived last week, I am writing this blog with the desire to introduce them due to their exceptional qualities.

First, the first item.

This is the identity of the (T) shirt mentioned in the blog title.

Why the parentheses? Because this item is a shirt but also a T-shirt, which is why I put a parenthesis around the T.

Imagining that there are people who are seeing the brand's concept for the first time, let me explain: this brand, WONDER ROOM ESSE, aims to draw out the potential of universal materials that can be found in everyday life, such as T-shirts and sweatshirts made from Jersey and loopwheel fabrics, to create a "threatening everyday life" that surprises us as wearers.

Because the materials are an extension of everyday life, the madness that is glimpsed in the universality created by spending a significant amount of time on the fabric coexists with the reassurance that it can become a companion that supports a consumer's daily life, without ever losing its shape no matter how many times it is washed.

This is my personal theory, but I believe that the pursuit of excellence that includes madness surpasses everything else in any field.

Therefore, from my perspective, WONDER ROOM ESSE is one of the brands that has entered a domain that allows no following because it tries to confront one thing with madness.

That is why I highly recommend this item.

The Form


In addition to the standard black and olive, there is an exquisite gray that can be said to be decadent, similar to vintage gray found in thrift store T-shirts.

Using a fabric with random shades unique to the brand SHADOW, this has been made into a shirt shape.

With a moderate thickness perfect for spring and summer, a somewhat rough yet artistic mood coming from the fabric, a size that isn't too modern but not too pastoral, cuffs like a long sleeve T-shirt, and a cute button representing the brand's name with a W on the second button.

Amid various intersecting elements, I felt a character that embodies the artisanal atmosphere with a charming behavior of a stylish guy who has arrived at a certain point.

To rephrase it in a more digestible manner, if we isolate the mood of this shirt, it could seem too artisanal, but the detailed elements soften the parts that could become difficult to approach.

I feel this sense from all the items of WONDER ROOM ESSE.

At this time of year, it’s great worn alone, and as it gets a little warmer, it can be worn like a cardigan.

In autumn and winter, it can be used as an inner layer.

This is a reliable piece that will stay with users for a long time across seasons.

Please do give it a try.

And since I ended up speaking passionately and making this long, I will introduce the shorts in the next blog.
