"I've definitely called things an ikat design but probably haven't seen a real one before. Utilizing an 'ikat' resist dye by binding and dying all before the hand-looming process the distinctive 'blurry' look is due to he difficulty of the weaver to lineup the pattern when on the loom. If you didn't follow any of that know this shirt is hella cool. The base feels like an OCBD and beautifully exhibits the brown and pink hues of the pattern."---Kenshawn
