The Juban Shitagi is a traditional Japanese shirt, worn under kimono, as a causal shirt or pajama top.
Traditionally the juban shitagi would be worn under the kimono to help keep the samurai cool and to prevent their sweat from damaging the outer kimono top they wear.
In home samurai would often wear this traditional under shirt as a casual shirt, while lounging in their home or while they sleep.
