Description: What better way to start a conversation with some random Japanese people than wearing this shirt!?

Description: We call it “sake”, but that actually means “alcohol” in Japan. The Japanese call is “Nihonshu”. No matter what you call it, sipping glorious rice wine out of tiny cups with friends cannot be beat. Let everyone know you’re a lover of nihonshu with this great shirt. It will get the conversation started, and you’re sure to hear about some great nihonshu brands you should try!
Description: In America when counting numbers, it’s common to mark four slashes, then one strike through to represent 5. In Japan, they use the kanji for the number 5… it just so happens that the kanji for five, has five strokes. Each stroke counts from 1 to 5… it’s good to know, and the shirt looks cool. Learning, and looking cool!? Thanks Psychic Cat!
