Fabric Description

An incredibly fine authentic Irish linen in a fresh light blue.

This luxurious linen fabric is woven and finished by Ireland’s premier linen mill, Baird McNutt. With roots dating back to 1798 on the Kellswater River, Baird McNutt uses both traditional and state-of-the-art technologies to produce some of the finest linen in the world. Though it’s historically been used in many different environments for its insulating properties, we’re all familiar with linen’s fantastic lightness and breathability in hotter climates, and this one delivers beyond expectation. Remarkably soft and textured with linen’s characteristic textural irregularity, this fresh light blue linen is a truly special iteration of a timeless classic you can dress up or down.

  • Not my favorite linen, lacks stiffness and feels very light.

  • Wow this is some wonderful linen. I often avoid linen's as they feel scratchy to my skin. This skirt is the opposite. Soft, lightweight, and breathable. On top of all that, it looks great. The blue is not what I had imagined, although is almost spot on from the images of the fabric. Just not for me.

  • Fabric is rich and classy. This shirt looks and feels expensive, but is linen so you can wear it in more casual settings. Bought this shirt on a whim and couldn't be more happy.

    February 2025  ·  Merrick in WASHINGTON, DC

  • Shirt is excellent quality and the weight of the linen material is just right - drapes magnificently!

    January 2025  ·  James in Weston, CT

  • has a hint of purple which i liked. it is also more mid blue than light, probably very beautiful once it bleaches a bit in the sunlight. i decided for the light blue washed linen however as i was looking for something a bit more classic light blue

    January 2025  ·  Stefan in Vienna, Vienna

  • Wonderful heavier-weight linen. The heavier weight gives it a beautiful drape for linen (it still wrinkles) while being nice and cool. Note that the weave is slubby meaning you will get some strong natural variations in texture. Great fabric.

    January 2025  ·  Ronald in Miami, FL

  • Long-lasting, durable fabric. I can't wait to wear this during the summer and on vacation.

    December 2024  ·  James in SAN FRANCISCO, CA

    November 2024  ·  Theo in New York, NY

  • Very nice linen, It's extremely comfortable to wear and with a good undershirt would be great year round.

    November 2024  ·  Robert in Chalfont, PA

  • Color was a bit more saturated than I expected, but it is still a versatile color.

    November 2024  ·  Hugh in ARLINGTON, VA

  • Good light blue linen fabric.

    October 2024  ·  David in NEW ORLEANS, LA

  • So much more comfortable in the hot summer than my old cotton dress shirts. Breathes so well.

    October 2024  ·  Ryan in Sacramento, CA

  • It’s a great fabric. Will very likely purchase another next summer.

    October 2024  ·  Richard in MANASSAS, VA

  • Beautiful sharp blue

    October 2024  ·  Stephen in Livingston, NJ

  • A+ fabric - drapes great

    October 2024  ·  Will in Fort Worth, TX

  • Great fabric. It has very nice body: it's a bit thicker than the average linen shirt, so it might be slightly warmer, but still works great in a hot summer and should age better.

    September 2024  ·  Tommaso in Milano, MI

  • Excellent

    September 2024  ·  Dionysios in New Milford, NJ

  • Great fabric. It is a little heavier than other linens but is quite breathable and cool for warm weather. I also think it wrinkles less than other linens.

    July 2024  ·  John in West Bethesda, MD

  • Love this. Tried to reorder but it's currently out of stock so I got another white one in the same fabric instead. I'm ordering another blue one as soon as it's available again.

    July 2024  ·  Larry in Castaic, CA

  • Extremely light & comfortable

    July 2024  ·  Augusto in SAN MATEO, CA

  • Classic linen shirt and color

    July 2024  ·  Roshan in West Hollywood, CA

  • I bought three linen short sleeve shirts. This fabric was my favorite. The blue is more versatile. You can dress it up or dress it down. Every guy needs a blue linen short sleeve because it's timeless

    July 2024  ·  Eric in Chicago, IL

  • An excellent linen. Perfect for summer.

    July 2024  ·  Eric in San Diego, CA

  • Much more wrinkle prone than expecte

    July 2024  ·  Sanford in New Haven, CT

  • Great, classic Irish linen fabric.

    July 2024  ·  Colin in Chicago, IL

  • love the color

    July 2024  ·  Juan in New York, NY

  • Summer means linen and although I don't care for the rumpled look, it's definitely cooler than tighter weaves so I'll accept that. Will see if it softens after a few washings...

    July 2024  ·  Kevin in Dallas, TX

  • Linen really does make a big difference in hot, humid weather. I wish I had tried this sooner.

    July 2024  ·  John in Durham, NC

  • It's soft for a linen.

    July 2024  ·  Lonnie in Willits, CA

  • Great

    July 2024  ·  david in Baltimore, MD

  • Absolutely gorgeous, very comfortable. Unfortunately, requires ironing as it wrinkles all over, especially on the sleeves and front placket. Really, one of my favorites but I hate ironing so I don't wear it much.

    July 2024  ·  Glen in Lynnwood, WA

  • Fabric was great. After washing ended up about 1/2" too short in the arms, but I wear them with sleeves rolled up so it doesn't really matter.

    June 2024  ·  Mark in Irvington, NY

  • Strong and sturdy linen fabric.

    June 2024  ·  Paul in Hoboken, NJ
