Fabric Description

Authentic Indian madras reinterpreted for the modern wardrobe.

Prized for its breathability, lightness, and distinctive look, madras is an absolute warm-weather staple. Ours is woven in Chennai, India, with a 40s single-ply plain weave construction that makes for an incredibly soft and airy feel. Madras fabrics were originally dyed with bright, colorful vegetable dyes that, when laundered, would "bleed," resulting in shirts with more subdued tones and a faded appearance. This bleeding inadvertently created the traditional madras look we’re familiar with today. Our madras shirts are designed to have just the right amount of fade right off the bat so they won‘t bleed when you wash them at home. This punchy combination of blue, bright green, sunny yellow, red, and white makes for a unique yet timeless plaid style that works perfectly as either a long or short sleeve shirt.

Recommended Styling: Our Colorado Button Down collar with a Soft Front placket and Angled pocket is a classic look. Try our Soft English Spread and no placket for a slightly more modern spin.

  • I love this madras shirt. I have a couple of other madras shirts and enjoy how light they are - especially in the summer. This blue, green and yellow madras pattern looks particularly good on a casual button down shirt.

    November 2022  ·  Kevin in CHARLOTTE, NC

  • The fabric is why I bought the shirt - love it. Reminds me of the madras shirts I used to wear in the 70's. Slight wrinkling to the fabric but that is expected for this I think.

    November 2022  ·  David in ALPHARETTA, GA

  • This was outside of my usual wheelhouse, but has quickly become a favourite. I love the lightness of the fabric.

    November 2022  ·  Philip in Burlington, ON

    October 2022  ·  Andrew in FORT SMITH, AR

  • The color and pattern are wonderful (they're probably why I bought this piece. The shirt is also super comfortable. However, I feel the fabric is not very durable unfortunately. It's still a great buy if you take care of the fabric.

  • Great summer shirt. Very cool and lightweight fabric.

    September 2022  ·  Brent in Media, PA

  • Subtly colorful

    August 2022  ·  David in Louisville, KY

  • Another excellent Madras. This one seems to have little more sheen and looks that bit smarter.

    August 2022  ·  Roger in NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE,

  • Extremely lightweight, great for hot summer day. Does come out of the laundry wrinkled.

    August 2022  ·  Robert in Sparta, NJ

  • I love the madras fabric.

    August 2022  ·  Stephen in AUSTIN, TX

  • I think this shirt was a standout among this season's madras. It's a striking shirt that goes great with navy pants. I liked it so much that I was tempted to buy another to be able to wear it more often.
