Albiate Washed Dark Slate Blue Denim Fabric

$195

Design A Shirt

Soft and sturdy workwear perfection.

This 60s 2-ply denim is woven with indigo threads in the warp and black threads in the weft to give it a more subdued slate hue that‘s nothing short of stunning. We gave it an enzyme dark wash to blend the indigo and black threads even further. The result is a beautiful and unique deep slate blue that’s a must for any casual wardrobe.

From sourcing the perfect denim from a 185-year-old mill in Italy to testing washes with our factory for months on end, we labor over every detail of our washed indigo shirts. Each of them starts out as a plain or textured weave fabric that’s been dyed heavily with indigo. After being cut and sewn, the shirts are then garment washed using either a light enzyme, soda, or bleaching process. It‘s this process that gives each shirt its beautiful color and unique fading around the seams. While garment washed indigo and denim shirts are a popular product in the ready-to-wear market, they haven‘t previously been available in a custom fit or design due to the bulk production required for the washing process. We‘ve worked closely with our suppliers to bring you the first truly custom garment washed indigo and denim shirts on the market. Premium, carefully crafted shirts, made to your exact specifications. Learn more about our washed indigo and denim shirts here.

Recommended Styling: Try this one with our Soft Roma Spread collar, no placket, and Slate Horn buttons for an easygoing sprezzy look. Note that, due to the special nature of the garment washing process, this fabric can only be made using soft, unfused collars, cuffs, and fronts/plackets.

June 2024 · Matt in Atlanta, GA
“Nice soft denim. I wish contrast stitching were offered.”

June 2024 · Joshua in Beverly Hills, CA
“Very nice, comfortable fabric for a casual shirt. Maybe not as bluejeans-like as I'd hoped for from a blue denim - it seems more like it's dyed through the entire thread rather that just the exterior, like jeans. A different thread might result in a shirt that wears more like blue jeans, for a more interesting texture.”

June 2024 · Thomas in London,
“Beautiful fabric. Easy to wear and look after.”

May 2024 · Peter in London, England

January 2024 · Raoul in Walnut creek, CA
“Albiate denims at PC are comfortable and visually a number of steps above what you will find in a store thanks to the finishing options like button and collar choices available. I enjoyed adding these items to my tailored looks for elevated casual. They work in most environments. I own both the black and blue and they're regulars in my rotation.”
