🏷️ Kikuchi Clan Mon T-Shirt – Twin Feathers of the Kyushu Guardians
🛡️ Design Description
This T-shirt features the kamon (family crest) of the Kikuchi clan (菊池氏), an influential warrior family from Higo Province on Kyushu. The crest, known as “Futatsu no Ya” (二つ矢), or “Two Arrows,” represents readiness, speed, and martial discipline. Traditionally displayed as two upright arrows with decorative bindings, it reflects the clan’s unyielding samurai spirit.
The Kikuchi were fierce defenders of the imperial cause, particularly during the Nanboku-chō period, and were known for their opposition to the Ashikaga shogunate. Their warriors earned a reputation for bravery and loyalty, and Kikuchi Taketoki is remembered as a martyr of the Southern Court.
