Fabric Description

A specially dyed and washed linen from Italy’s Albini.

This 23s single-ply plain weave makes a classic summer linen. Linen has an airy, open weave that breathes incredibly well, and its naturally cool feel and ability to keep you dry make it a summer essential if there ever was one. 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. This linen from Albini is incredible soft and low on texture, giving the spotlight to rustic variations in color that result from the special delavé dye-and-wash process. This classic slate blue is a great way to wear blue in warm weather without having to dip into your chambray collection. Tuck it into navy dress pants, or wear it with your favorite lightweight casual pants and sneakers.

Recommended Styling: Our Soft English Spread collar, Straight hem, Soft Front placket, and Corozo buttons make an easy summer shirt. Go for a Rounded hem if you plan to mostly wear it tucked in, or add a pocket for a more utilitarian vibe.

    September 2023  ·  Jesse in WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA

    September 2023  ·  Ignatius Daniel in Long Island City, NY

  • I was really impressed with the softness of the linen, it really didn't take much time to break in.

    August 2023  ·  Nick in Santa Fe, NM

    August 2023  ·  MATTHIAS in Pinardville, NH

  • Great fabric, love the look and feel. One of my staple shirts now.

    August 2023  ·  James in Manhattan Beach, CA

  • Very nice fabric. A little bit of a tighter weave than most linen shirts I've seen. Still wrinkles easily, but drapes a bit nicer than most linen. Does show sweat, but not egregiously. Not the most breathable of linens, but not stifling either.

    August 2023  ·  Gidon in WASHINGTON, DC

  • Great fabric for warm summerdays

    August 2023  ·  Joost in Mountain View, CA

  • Color is excellent

    August 2023  ·  Christophe in Montreal, Quebec

  • Nice lightweight linen, with interesting color.

    August 2023  ·  Colin in Chicago, IL

  • The fabric was great. The color was a little more gray and a little less blue than I expected but that may be how it displays on my screen.

    August 2023  ·  Peter in PETALUMA, CA

  • The color on the website is accurate - a light bluish-green.

    August 2023  ·  James in DURHAM, NC

  • This is a very interesting color that reads a bit like a workwear shirt, but still feels like a casual, refined look with the right details. Very solid overall linen fabric.

    August 2023  ·  Brian in Phila, PA

  • Very interesting pattern; fabric is a little heavy for linen, so not so much a summer fabric

    August 2023  ·  Hugh in New York, NY

  • Love the color and texture of this material. Beautiful shirt.

    August 2023  ·  Marc in Napa, CA

  • Perfect linen substitute for a chambray shirt in the hottest summer months. Colour was exactly as shown in the fabric picture. Good value fabric when on sale.

    August 2023  ·  Liam in Milton Keynes,

  • Super lightweight. Color is gorgeous. It strikes the perfect balance between navy blue and light blue.

    July 2023  ·  Nathan in Sunnyside, NY

  • this linen was a bit heavier than I expected, and while I like the cloth, I actually prefer other cloths I paid less money for from PC. Still recommended, but not the best purchase I've made.

    July 2023  ·  Simon in Toronto, ON

  • Beautiful color and great fabric. Perfect for summer. Feels wonderful—lovely linen.

    April 2023  ·  Thierry in Brooklyn, NY

  • Refined casual.

    March 2023  ·  Griffin in New York, NY

  • not as interesting as it seems online, less green and less variation light to dark, more a flatter bluer color, the fabric itself is stiffer than i was hoping for given that its a "washed" linen

    February 2023  ·  Avi in Brooklyn, NY

  • It's very light and perfect for summer months.

    February 2023  ·  Mike in Palgrave, Ontario

  • Beautiful “workwear” fabric. Soft, light, and elegant, yet with this kind of patina that makes it feel like it’s spent weeks in worn in a garage.

    February 2023  ·  Jason in Delft,

  • Great alternative to a chambray in summer. Light linen that wrinkles a bit during the day but is very easy to iron, as opposed to the Irish linen that's thicker. Very nice colour. Will be on regular rotation in the warmer months for the office. Great summer vacation shirt

    January 2023  ·  Chris in Summer Hill, NSW

  • Perfect.

    January 2023  ·  Bob in Pacifica, CA

  • Great blue color that coordinates well with a range of summer looks, from the beach to a cocktail party. The weight of this linen is more substantial than what you can find off the shelf. Highly recommend this fabric.

    December 2022  ·  Andrew in CHICAGO, IL

  • Fantastic summer alternative to a washed denim shirt

    December 2022  ·  Adam in Templestowe, VIC

    November 2022  ·  Sam in Dallas, TX

  • A nice, lightweight Linen that's both soft & comfortable.

    October 2022  ·  GLENN in Manteca, CA

  • This is a beautiful washed slate blue linen that is a perfect summer substitute for chambray or twill fabric of the same color scheme. Fit is perfect as usual.

    October 2022  ·  Robert in Philadelphia, PA

  • Great shirt

    September 2022  ·  Aleksandr in New York, NY

  • Soft, beautiful, but sturdy. Worth it

    September 2022  ·  Andrew in Port Angeles, WA

  • Comfortable but doesn't drape well especially when getting up from a seated position.

    September 2022  ·  Joseph in South Dartmouth, MA

  • Great colour, perfect for warmer weather.

    September 2022  ·  James in London,

  • I love the fabric but the fit of this shirt was much roomier than any other Proper Cloth shirt that I own and I own many.

    September 2022  ·  James in New York, NY
