Ginkgo Junior Mandarin Collar Shirt

The Ginkgo Shirt is a short-sleeved mandarin-collar shirt designed for boys aged 8–16, combining traditional Chinese-inspired details with a clean, contemporary silhouette. 

Choose between two collar variations to suit your personal style:

• A contemporary overlapping mandarin collar for a minimalist, modern look

• A traditional Changshan-inspired stand collar for a touch of heritage

Designed with a comfortable, easy fit, the shirt features a straight body and simple short sleeves, making it suitable for both festive occasions and everyday wear. The full front opening is finished with a neat button placket for easy dressing.

An optional chest pocket adds a practical detail while keeping the overall look understated. Sew it in a festive fabric for Chinese New Year, or choose a simple cotton or linen for a versatile everyday shirt.

Make one, or many, enjoy how effortlessly it elevates any occasion.
