Tatsuya Nakadai

I am incredibly bummed that I cannot attend any of these extremely rare events in NY and DC.

Tatsuya Nakadai is one of the world's greatest living actors. If you don't know about him, treat yourself by seeking out some of these movies.

Samurai Poster Shirts

We've finally got our CHAMBARA POSTER shirt up on our website!

Since Sergio Leone lifted the plot of Akira Kurosawa's classic YOJIMBO to make his groundbreaking spaghetti western – A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS – we thought it would be cool to create a poster for an imaginary Kurosawa remake of Leone's masterpiece, THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY.

This original Shelf Life Clothing design is inspired by vintage samurai and spaghetti western movie posters, and imagines an all-star epic featuring Toshiro Mifune's "Sanjuro" character (The Good) crossing swords with "Zatoichi" himself, Shintaro Katsu (The Ugly), and Tatsuya Nakadai in "Sword of Doom" mode (The Bad).
