I'm actually a fan of BooW's Men's Vintage Kimono Cardigan Cotton Linen Wrap Front Japanese Jinbei Haori Jacket Loose Fit Solid Color Hanfu Top Cover Up

Luxire for mid priced. They do off the rack or made to measure. They have a USA warehouse or returns to NYC which simplifies things. Europe still has it shipped from India.
Also as an aside they got rid of their "tester" cheap fabric.

I've been eyeing the Snow Peak Noragi for ages. Haven't pulled the trigger yet as I've no idea how to style it (for me). Tried it on in their shop and the fabric was that stiff it could've stood up on it's own

Kimono Shirt - Kimono Flowers | Naked & Famous Denim
The Kimono Flowers is a Japanese cotton fabric printed all over with a pattern inspired by traditional kimono fabrics.
The Kimono shirt, crafted as a modern tribute to the rich heritage of Japan, draws its design from the traditional Japanese noragi, historically worn by laborers. This light jacket
technically noragi-inspired
This seems like one of those "expectations Vs reality" items that look really cool in a photo but you can never quite pull them off, like a scorpion jacket
some noragi flavors
I got a similar shirt in India but it’s maybe more hanbok than noragi style
Ive realized my only awareness about Noragis has been through discussion of western guys wearing them. Does anyone have perspective on the popularity/view of noragis (and similar) in Japan and worn by Japanese people? Like is it totally normal, old fashioned, fashion forward if done correctly, etc? Just curious
