The cat has the arm, the shoulder and the leverage, and a fully grown rikishi is now upside down in the air above it. Ipponzeoi (一本背負い), the one-armed shoulder throw, is kimarite No. 04 in this sumo winning techniques series: the wrestler traps an opponent's arm, turns his back into him and rolls him clean over the shoulder. It is rare in the ring and spectacular when it lands, which is exactly why the cat has chosen it. Each design comes with its kanji set in the sumō-ji lettering used on the banzuke. Printed on garment-dyed Comfort Colors cotton that softens with every wash.

The Feel

A proper heavyweight tee — pre-shrunk, 100% ring-spun cotton with a relaxed cut built for actual daily wear, not just laundry-day photos. The fabric's dyed after it's sewn, which is what gives it that soft, cloud-worn texture right out of the bag — no breaking-in required.



Built to Last

Every seam is double-needle stitched, front to back, made to survive far more washes
(and cat naps on your lap) than a typical tee. The body's knit in one continuous piece with no side seams, so it holds its shape instead of twisting or bagging out over time. Finished with a sewn-in label — small detail, easy to skip, shouldn't be.



Keeping It Fresh

Machine wash cold (max 30°C/90°F) · Do not bleach · Tumble dry low · Iron or steam on low heat · Do not dry clean

Treat it gently and it'll outlast the trend cycle — a little like a good ukiyo-e print.
