Fabric Description

A unique summer fabric with beautiful texture.

This 15s single-ply herringbone weave linen from the renowned Albini mill is made with thicker linen yarns for extra heft and a better drape. The yarns’ thickness, combined with the complexity of the twill weave, emphasizes the natural irregularities in the linen and creates a beautiful slubby texture and maintains the material’s characteristic comfort in the heat. Keep in mind that linen’s wrinkle-prone nature is part of its charm; don't worry about pressing it—just let it look well-worn and relaxed. We find that our linen shirts only get better the more they're washed and worn, so you’re sure to love this one even more as time goes on. This muted green-grey fatigue is the perfect way to go neutral and still stand out from the pack.

Recommended Styling: Stick to soft details. Our Band collar offers a minimal and artistic casual look, while our Soft Franklin Spread collar has a more classic yet modern feel. Either way, we recommend going with no placket on this one.

  • This made for a good looking shirt for cool to warm weather, looks great with a charcoal sweater vest.

    July 2023  ·  Anthony in SEATTLE, WA

  • Heavy but breathable, as advertised.

    November 2022  ·  Pete in South Salt Lake, UT

  • The color is definitely great for fall and winter wear, and the fabric is decent for this. I’d recommend it given its price.

    November 2022  ·  Oscar in APO, AE

  • one of my favorite shirts from Proper Cloth. Light fabric with a heavier look, very versatile. Looks great with western tailoring.

    October 2022  ·  Zach in Brooklyn, NY

  • This fabric has a great broken-in feel as soon as you take it out of the box. It's a pretty thick fabric, great for those cool fall days.

    September 2022  ·  Michael in INDIANAPOLIS, IN

    June 2022  ·  Darshan in Park Slope, NY

  • good, quality fabric. very soft after 1 wash, yet still holds its shape well. better than expected!

    June 2022  ·  Garrison in Brooklyn, NY

  • Love with jeans. After one wash already softening slightly. Comfortable to wear. Slightly thicker than average linen, so a bit warmer but still breathable. Works well for jeans and perfect summer shirt for Canada and warm but not sweltering summers.

    June 2022  ·  Neil in Fort St. John, BC

  • Gorgeous fabric. A sturdy heavy(ish)linen that breathes really well.

    June 2022  ·  Lawrence in BIRMINGHAM, AL

    June 2022  ·  Zachary in Brooklyn, NY

  • One of my favorites

    June 2022  ·  Ryan in Baldwinsville, NY

  • The twill weave makes this more drapey, which is a nice change for linen.

    May 2022  ·  Joshua in OAKLAND, CA

  • A heavier weight linen shirt. Beautiful military green. Washes softer over time. Good all season shirt that remains cool to wear in summer.

    May 2022  ·  Dennis in Williamsburg, VA

    November 2021  ·  bogen in New York, NY

  • Great color; pairs well with denim. The drape is a bit springy; might have been nice for the fabric to be a bit heavier. Really nice, regardless.

    November 2021  ·  Steven in Union, NJ

  • best linen i've ordered

    November 2021  ·  Chad in New York, NY

    April 2021  ·  Thomas in NEW ORLEANS, LA

  • Incredible fabric. I love this shirt!!

    April 2021  ·  Jason in KANSAS CITY, MO

  • Very opaque, cotton-like. The fabric sheds a bit, at first.

    March 2021  ·  Edward in SAN FRANCISCO, CA

  • The linen is heavier than expected but it drapes so well because of this. Not necessarily a shirt you want to wear in 90 degree-plus heat but perfect for in the 70's when that OCBD is just a bit too warm.

    March 2021  ·  Joseph in Kill Devil Hills, NC

  • Very soft and heavy material. Great for colder weather.

    February 2021  ·  John in Brooklyn, NY

  • Love the light twill!

    February 2021  ·  Richard in Randolph, NJ

  • Fabric feels great. Good, strong texture and thickness makes this a perfect shift for the coolest 3 seasons of the year.

    January 2021  ·  Derek in Coraopolis, PA

  • This was my first custom linen shirt, and I was so pleased with it, I immediately ordered a second. It is intended as an outdoor/casual shirt for all but the hottest months, and I am quite confident it will work well. And, it is dressy enough to wear a jacket and tie.

    January 2021  ·  Terry in Florissant, MO

  • This fabric is high quality, durable, and substantial, yet breathable and flexible. It is a bit rough but wears well.

    January 2021  ·  Andrew in Cheektowaga, NY

  • Great color, heavier weight linen, but wears quite cool. Slightly scratchy at first, but softening up nicely.

    January 2021  ·  Timothy in Warren, CT

  • was heavier weight than I had expected

    December 2020  ·  Jon in Lakeville, MN

    October 2020  ·  John in Roslyn Heights, NY

  • quite a durable and sturdier linen, unusual color for a linen but its something different and stands out

    October 2020  ·  STEPHEN in BELPER, Derbyshire

  • this takes a few washes to soften up, but it does. nice, but too warm for summer.

    September 2020  ·  A. in Duarte, CA

  • Excellent fabric with a great pattern and construction
