Kaizen Tee
Kaizen: A Japanese philosophy to strive for continuous improvement and change for the better; becoming 1% better every day.
Embedded in this garment-dyed tee is a whole lot of meaning. Crafted on a shrink-free, max heavyweight tee, this closet staple features an oversized fit with spandex collar for a streetwear look. The shirt front displays a vertical design of the kanji depiction of kaizen, with the back featuring a stunning scope of the Ko’olau mountains and the words: “Continuous Improvement. Be Kind. Train Mean.”
Color: Mocha. 100% Cotton. Garment Dyed for retro-vintage look. Oversized. If you like that extra baggy, streetwear look, we recommend sizing up. April is a size Small and wearing a size Medium.
About the Artist
Mean Training Coach April Nakamura-Weatherwax is a professional textile artist. After years of creating beautiful artwork for other clothing brands, April decided to pursue her passion for fitness, while creating art that speaks to her own convictions and philosophies. The Kaizen Tee is April’s depiction of this Japanese philosophy, a phrase she grew up with in her Japanese household.
“Kaizen is the Japanese concept for “continuous improvement.” It is a philosophy that embodies a drive to always seek better results and better ways to achieve those results. We at Mean Training firmly believe that every journey is shaped around this idea, no matter how big or small the goal. Kaizen is what drives us to be better for our clients and (hopefully) how we help drive you to be the best you.” - April
