One piece, one story: The Right Slit Tee by Ujoh

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Friday feeling: Effortless, like the art of doing less


The Right Slit Tee by Ujoh isn’t just clothing. In a world that equates busyness with worth, ease is the ultimate rebellion. For those who choose fewer, better pieces, its simplicity is loaded with intention.

The asymmetric side slit isn’t a detail. It’s a philosophy.
t’s the design equivalent of a deep breath—the pause between “should” and “could.” Wear it when you need to feel assembled without effort, like you woke up knowing exactly how to move through your day.  Pair it with yesterday’s jeans or tonight’s silk skirt; it adapts like a best friend who never drains your energy.

The market screams, ‘buy more.’ This Tee whispers, ‘buy smarter.’


Why? Because the math of modern life is broken. 
Fast fashion sells 100 billion garments yearly—52 for every human on earth. Yet we wear only 20% of our clothes.

This t-shirt by Ujoh is an antidote to the algorithm:

  • Celadon isn’t just a colour. It’s the shade of urban calm—what you crave after a day of neon screens and synthetic noise.
  • The slit? A sartorial semicolon; it lets the piece (and you) breathe between roles.
  • Endless versatility: the new luxury. Because sustainability isn’t a trend, it’s survival.

For the modern human who curates, not consumes.

How you’ll wear it: A study in subtlety

  • For the 8 AM dash: Tucked into trousers, the slit peeking like a secret—a nod to Tokyo’s kakuremi (hidden form).
  • For the long lunch: Loose over linen shorts, the hem slanting like a Brancusi curve—minimal, but alive.
  • For the night that unfolds unexpectedly: Layered under a sheer dress, its edges tracing yours. Because restraint can be radical.

Final thought: The slit as a metaphor


Limited stock.
Because good design – like time, like attention – is finite. This tee isn’t for everyone. It’s for those who see a slit not as an absence, but as an invitation to move freely in a world that wants to pin you down.

The essence of contemporary tailoring


Ultimately, UJOH reshapes tailoring by focusing on structure and lightness through the cutting. And so, utilising signature techniques specific to the brand, the collection merges sleek design with effortless comfort.
