Albini Light Grey Melange Cotton Tencel Herringbone Flannel Fabric

~~$180~~ $125

A densely woven flannel with a silky soft finish.

This beautiful light grey melange herringbone flannel from Albini is woven from a durable yet refined blend of 59% cotton and 41% Tencel™ that feels almost too good to be true. The 60s 2-ply twill weave is dense and warm, but the moisture-wicking performance of the Tencel™ ensures you stay comfortable and don’t overheat. Tencel™ is an eco-friendly fiber with incredible performance characteristics—it's made from wood pulp and is more absorbent than cotton, and it’s strong enough to withstand regular machine washing. The smoothness of the Tencel™ combined with an extra soft brushed finish creates an unbelievable silkiness that’s tough to find in flannel and only increases this fabric’s versatility. It makes an elevated overshirt when layered over a turtleneck, or an extra warm alternative to your favorite oxford during the cold months.

Recommended Styling: Try it with our Soft English Spread collar, Soft Front placket, and Soft Long One Button cuff for a versatile casual style.

“I'm a huge fan of Herringbone and this is one of the best I've ever owned. I love how elegant it looks and the color is incredibly beautiful.”

“Wow, absolute stunner! Incredibly soft feel but also feels like it'll wear hard. It's a lovely light grey, which goes with anything and the herringbone pattern is very, very subtle. An essential fall/winter casual shirt.”

“Luxurious-feeling fabric in a really versatile color. It's a light-medium weight flannel that's very soft. The fabric has held up well after multiple washes, which is a pleasant surprise based on how delicate it feels.”

April 2024 · Seth in PHILADELPHIA, PA
“The fabric on this shirt is extremely soft and the color is perfect. The shirt sleeves do seem to get wrinkled easily but that is probably due to the nature of the material. Still an excellent buy and looks amazing.”

January 2024 · Samson in New York, NY
“I really like this shirt, but I am concerned about the durability. I ordered the same shirt in Navy, but had to return it after only two washes.”

January 2024 · Michael in Monaca, PA

“Great everyday shirt”

February 2023 · David in Brooklyn, NY
“Super soft fabric! Love it.”

January 2023 · Zachery in Brooklyn, NY
“the fabric is really nice, you can dress it up and down, very easy to iron, looks still fresh after one week of continues wear - the tencel makes it really really soft. Overall I love this shirt more than I thought I would to, because at first sight the color looks a bit different than on the pictures. on the pictures it is like silvery, but in reality it is more like a sweater-grey. the fabric is almost a bit too sofrt for my taste :)”

“Awesome fabric. Softest and silkiest flannel I've ever worn. I only wish the herringbone texture was more prominent.”
