Albini Black 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 casual shirt looks fine untucked”

August 2019 · George in CHARLESTON, WV
“Difficult to iron or press. I like the ruffled texture, but it's hard not to disturb that when it's pressed. Since I wear it casual exclusively, not pressing it isn't much of a problem for me.”

January 2017 · John in Liberty Township, OH
“Could be softer.”

November 2016 · Charles in Hanover, MD
“light and comfortable, great casual shirt.”

August 2016 · Craig in Portland, OR
“I ordered this for a short sleeve shirt with a band collar. In a word: 'wow'.”

July 2016 · Kristoph in Edmonds, WA
“not my favorite”

July 2016 · Whitney in Jersey City, NJ
“This is a different sort of fabric for me, more opaque and textured than I usually go for. But it's good to have variety in my closet!”

June 2016 · matt in Vashon, WA
“Maybe a little heavier than I expected.”

June 2016 · Philip in Los Angeles, CA
“Unique fabric--you don't black seersucker every day. High quality and out of the ordinary.”

June 2016 · Thomas in New Braunfels, TX
“Not as awesome as I was hoping, but still pretty cool. A bit expensive for what it is. Possibly it will grow on me.”

June 2016 · Brian in Plantation, FL
“Maybe my favorite one yet. Lightweight but still has a cool style element to it. Love it.”
