About Erica Kochi Shirts

The Power of Premium Fabrics

A well-made shirt is timeless—flattering, versatile, and effortlessly sophisticated. But most shirts, whether off-the-rack or based on standard sewing patterns, rarely use truly exceptional fabrics. They're made from generic materials that lack character, drape, and the luxurious feel that transforms a simple shirt into something extraordinary.

It started with a simple frustration: beautiful shirts made from exceptional fabrics were impossible to find. So I began making them—starting with friends, sourcing premium materials from around the world and creating shirts that felt as luxurious as they looked. Today, I offer both standard sizing and custom measurements, all crafted from fabrics carefully curated for their exceptional quality, drape, and unique character.

Premium fabrics, perfectly fitted.

Choose standard sizing for immediate availability, or opt for custom measurements in the San Francisco Bay Area. Every shirt is made from materials selected for their exceptional quality and ability to create something truly special.

About Me

Tailoring that begins with fabric curation.

I began making shirts to solve a personal frustration—and discovered a shared one. Since then, I've helped clients find clothing that not only fits beautifully, but feels extraordinary against the skin. Each piece showcases fabrics sourced from the world's finest mills, chosen for their unique character and luxurious feel.

The Process

Built around exceptional materials—from fabric selection to final stitch.

Every shirt begins with the fabric. I source materials from small mills around the world, handpicking each piece for its character, movement, and depth. Whether you choose standard sizing or custom measurements, the result is a shirt made from premium materials that feel as good as they look.

Materials

Exceptional fabrics, chosen for more than just appearance.

Each shirt is cut from carefully sourced fabrics—woven in small mills, handpicked for character, movement, and depth. From Italian cotton to Japanese denim, the materials are selected to create shirts that feel luxurious and move beautifully with your body.

What Clients Are Saying

"I've never worn something that felt more luxurious."

Clients often say the same thing: it's not just the fit, it's the feeling of premium fabric against your skin. Working with me means experiencing shirts made from materials that elevate the everyday into something extraordinary.
