Blue Pencil Stripe Cotton and Linen Blend Fabric

$130

A lightweight, subtly textured casual fabric for warm weather.

This Portuguese cotton and linen blend features the smooth softness of cotton and the breathability of linen. It’s not as slubby as pure linen generally is, though its oxford weave adds just a hint of texture to the dry, cool finish. We find that our linen-blend 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 is an excellent fabric for a summer dress shirt—pair it with linen or cotton dress pants, espadrilles or loafers, for a sleek yet relaxed look.

Recommended Styling: Our Soft President Spread collar, no placket, and Roma buttons creates a versatile look you can dress up or down.

“i like the cotton-linen from proper cloth. unsure about this one... the stripe feels a bit too loud and the tone of the blue is just not quite right. perhaps it is better to go with seersucker in striped light blue and white”

“beautiful and breathable”

October 2024 · David in Austin, TX
“Great casual shirt.”

October 2024 · Matthew in Roxbury, MA
“Feels so nice. Great texture, yet still breathable. Love the pencil stripe pattern. Doesn't wrinkle as much as linen. Still wrinkles a bit, but that's to be expected for a cotton linen blend. Overall 10/10.”

October 2024 · Jimmy in WASHINGTON, DC
“Good weight with a durable linen/cotton blend. The color and design of the shirt is classic. Tried to launder the shirt, but it came out way to wrinkled. This one goes to the laundry for cleaning and a good press.”

September 2024 · Andrew in CHICAGO, IL
“Lovely”

“Lovely pattern”

September 2024 · Cory in CHARLOTTE, NC
“I loved the feel but it could be shinier and would be nicer”

August 2024 · Sergio in Westlake Village, CA
“Nice summer weight, however, as far as the cotton-linen blends that I've bought from PC in the past, this is my least favorite when it comes to wrinkle resistance and overall feel of the fabric. Serviceable, but not a favorite.”

August 2024 · Anthony in Brooklyn, NY
“The fabric is breathable yet robust. This is a subtle pencil stripe that reads as pale blue from a distance but a thin stripe close up. I really like that the blue "stripe" is really more of a wiggly sawtooth line.”

“In”

August 2024 · frank in Mandeville, LA
“Really like the pattern, bu is a little more transparent than preferred and not as substantial as the other Portuguese cotton-linen blends.”
