Albini Blue Cotton Linen Seersucker Fabric

$140

There’s nothing like a fine seersucker fabric to get you through the warmer months in style, and this one takes the classic seersucker texture to a whole new level. Rather than the typical 100% cotton seersucker, this uses a cotton and linen blend from Albini that gives that fabric a particularly dry handfeel and extra slub. Widely worn in the hot, muggy South, seersucker’s special uneven puckering qualities gives it less surface area contact against the skin, increasing airflow under the shirt and allowing heat to dissipate more quickly...factor in the natural moisture wicking abilities of linen and you have a serious summer shirt. We love a Soft President Spread or Soft Ivy BD collar on these and don't be shy to give it short sleeves and make it your new beach shirt. Due to the special nature of seersucker fabrics, they can only be made using soft, unfused collars and cuffs. This fabric is limited edition.

“Great pattern and good summer look”

May 2021 · Anthony in Lolo, MT
“Historically, I've not been a fan of seersucker, but this fabric made me a convert. It's not a typical bunchy seersucker. Rather, it's elevated, more sophisticated. The tonal stripe is really beautiful, and becomes more interesting upon closer inspection.”

“This is a great shirt I wear a lot in the summer. The stripes are subtle and the fabric is light and looks nice mildly wrinkled.”

March 2017 · James in Williamstown, MA
“It shrunk way too much after washing for the first time. Had to return it.”

June 2016 · Andrew in WILMINGTON, DE
“Beautiful linen that you can't find off the rack.”

June 2016 · Jack in Oakland, ME
“Elegant and striking. Although I am laughing about the question on wrinkle resistance, since it's linen, or cotton/linen. :):)”

June 2016 · Jeffrey in Beverly Hills, CA
“Very comfortable, polyvalent, light and fresh during hot summer”

June 2016 · Patrick in Quebec City, Quebec
“Darker than I expected, but nice.”

“Very elegant fabric.”

June 2016 · Cory in SEATTLE, WA
“Albini Cotton linen seersucker is a great summer shirt for business casual. Evident quality. This color combination is perfect.”

June 2016 · Lary in Raleigh, NC
“Very good value. Nice feel...”

June 2016 · Vito in Jamaica, NY
“Very lightweight fabric, perfect for summer. A little bit shiny in person. Feels almost starchy. Despite being cotton/linen has the roughness of linen. Will be interesting to see how it breaks in. Update: While not the softest, very comfortable when wearing. Doesn't wrinkle like linen. Highly recommended, only wish it had a few more colors. Very much a European summer shirt.”
