Albiate Slate Melange Check Fabric

Fabric Description

From the Italian masters of cool, easygoing fabrics comes this dark, subtle plaid melange—the perfect subtle plaid. From a distance this 70s single-ply broadcloth reads almost like a solid slate blue, but up close the incredible detail of the pattern really comes through. The fabric is woven by Albiate in Italy with a special melange yarn to give it a slightly irregular coloration. And it’s a lightweight casual fabric, which makes it ideal for the upcoming spring and summer. Design this one with our versatile Soft President Spread collar, or the slightly shorter Soft Franklin Spread for a more contemporary, downtown look, and keep it casual with soft cuffs and a French front as well.

    April 2017  ·  Juan in Hawthorne, NJ

    January 2017  ·  Abhishek in London, England

  • Not bad design, but performance wise the shirt gets wrinkled very easily because it is very light.

    December 2016  ·  Alex in BROOKLYN, NY

  • This is one of my favorite shirts. Makes me look like a bad-ass.

  • Subtle pattern makes the shirt.

    October 2016  ·  Adam in Winston-Salem, NC

  • A perfect summer weight, although I hope to wear it year round. Ironing makes it polish up a bit so as not to be too casual. Can play either direction.

  • Love this fabric. Great shirt for weekends.

    August 2016  ·  scott in Dallas, TX

  • While I'd recommend this fabric, the color/pattern vibrancy is stronger in the photograph than in real life and even with a cold water washing and air drying and subsequent ironing the shirt never quite achieved the visual pop of the original photo I saw online. That said I'm guessing the fabric - it is durable yet delicate - will hold up and age into a fine patina.
