Fabric Description

An incredibly soft linen blend from Italy's Canclini.

This mid-weight cotton and linen blend, woven in Italy by renowned mill Canclini, makes an incredibly soft casual fabric. It’s full of texture, with a pronounced twill weave and a touch of the slub that gives linen its wonderful character. It’s also much softer than you’d expect a linen blend to be, with a hint of fuzziness to its finish. While linen tends to be prone to wrinkling, the high cotton content in this blend helps to combat that a bit. It’s breathable yet substantial, with great warm-weather comfort. This subtle cream, which we’ve called “sun washed” to capture the particular lived-in appeal provided by our casual wash, is the kind of neutral that fits into almost any color palette and style. It’s equally at home on the beach and with chinos, and makes a laidback choice with spring and summer dress pants.

Recommended Styling: Go for soft details across the whole shirt. Our Soft President Spread collar, no placket, and Soft Long One Button cuff with Grey Horn buttons make a versatile combo.

Casual Wash: Shirts cut in this fabric are washed after being sewn. This process gives the shirt a softer, broken-in feel with puckering around the seams.

  • Very soft fabric!

    last month  ·  Walner in Greenacres, FL

  • slubby fabric with a warm vanilla color, its nice but maybe a little advanced

    February 2025  ·  Avi in Brooklyn, NY

  • Amazing!

    January 2025  ·  Rayburn in Glen Ridge, NJ

  • Canclini blends are wonderful, a rich and soft fabric for summer !

    January 2025  ·  Glen in FRESNO, CA

  • The material is very light and soft from the moment it arrives. It wrinkles quite a bit, as should be expected with a linen blend. But for a comfortable casual shirt it's hard to beat!

    December 2024  ·  Simon in Toronto, ON

  • Great summer fabric in a versatile off white.

    December 2024  ·  Michael in Nottingham, MD

  • Great lightweight fabric

    December 2024  ·  Dwight in East Elmhurst, NY

  • Very nice texture. I designed it to tuck in.

    December 2024  ·  Craig in Encinitas, CA

  • Great weekend shirt!

    December 2024  ·  Jonathan in Highland Park, IL

  • The feel of this fabric is really wonderful. There's a softness and weight to the fabric that is hard to describe, but it's a pleasure to wear. I had it made as a short sleeve shirt with a button down collar and I get a lot of wear out of it (especially in South Texas where summer is year round with the exception of occasional cold fronts).

    December 2024  ·  Josef in MC ALLEN, TX

  • It's beautiful. With the linen in the mix wrinkling is inevitable, but I love the color and sheen.

    November 2024  ·  Jacob in Mammoth Lakes, CA

  • The fabric is so soft and comfortable to wear. Feels light enough for the summer heat or to wear into the fall/winter.

    November 2024  ·  Michael in CHICAGO, IL

  • This shirt was a little rumpled, but that is okay, as I bought it for casual wear. I expect it will look better after a trip to the laundry.

    October 2024  ·  Anthony in SEATTLE, WA

  • Beautiful luminous fabric and thanks to being a blend with cotton, felt much softer on the skin than a typical pure linen. The soft luster makes the fabric really stand out in a subtle way and I received several compliments the first time I wore it. I went with a popover shirt with the larger soft-roma collar for that mediterranean look!

    October 2024  ·  Samsuddha in Hamburg, NJ

  • This was even nicer than I expected, has all the beautiful qualities of linen but feels incredibly soft to the touch. I'm considering buying a second shirt in this fabric with a different fit. 100% recommend to anyone after an off-white or cream linen shirt.

    October 2024  ·  Lewis in Auckland, Auckland

  • Great shirt, I love the color and comfort. Keep in mind that since it's pre-washed you may need to adjust your measurements for lack of shrinking like I did. I ended up having to have the shirt remade with slimmer cuff arounds and chest width.

    October 2024  ·  Christopher in ALEXANDRIA, VA

  • Satisfactory, but not wrinkle resistant.

    October 2024  ·  Richard in Canton, OH

  • As advertised. Would not want it any more see-through. Nice fabric.

    October 2024  ·  Roman in RICHMOND, VA

  • Beautiful and cool. It does wrinkle a bit.

    October 2024  ·  Michael in Dayton, OH

  • Nice weight, although slightly translucent. Very soft.

    September 2024  ·  William in Londonderry,

  • My new favorite shirt, very nice subtle off-white coloring!

    September 2024  ·  David in New York, NY

  • Love it! Thought it was going to be a bit heavier but it's great for summer wear.

    September 2024  ·  Gregory in Stanardsville, VA

  • Great material

    September 2024  ·  James in CARTERSVILLE, GA

  • The fabric is soft and perpetually wrinkled. It wears like a summer Oxford cloth.

    August 2024  ·  John in Briarcliff Manor, NY

  • I've received compliments on this shirt the first time I wore it. The fabric is fantastic, drapes well, and has a very high-quality look and feel.

    August 2024  ·  Michael in Leesburg, VA

  • Soft linen blend. Great feel and color.

    August 2024  ·  JD in STUART, FL

  • The fabric has a beautiful feel and texture. It looks humble yet sophisticated.

    August 2024  ·  Reid in NEW HAVEN, CT

  • Lovely, soft, and with a slight sheen, which pairs really nicely with MOP buttons. Just opaque enough for my (light colored) bra to not show through. Fabric is more slubby than expected, but I think this gives it more character. Made for a really nice camp collar shirt.

    August 2024  ·  Elena in SANTA CRUZ, CA

  • It seems to be a very nice Italian fabric. I’m confident that it will wear well

    August 2024  ·  Frank in Greensburg, PA

  • I got the same shirt in chambray and this fabric makes for a more form-fitting shirt than I expected from a linen-cotton blend. It's not unpleasant or anything I'd return it over. It is also thicker than I expected but again, it's more of a nice surprise than a deal breaker.

    August 2024  ·  Anthony in Los Olivos, CA

  • As always, Proper Cloth fabric is well above other's. This cotton linen blend is very breathable and soft. I could sleep in this shirt.

    July 2024  ·  Nicholas in South Burlington, VT

  • Very nice

    July 2024  ·  Rick in Tinton Falls, NJ

  • linen casual for a nice holiday shirt

    July 2024  ·  Shaun in FORT LAUDERDALE, FL

  • good fabric

    July 2024  ·  David in Fort Washington, PA

  • Excellent linen cotton blend. Nice shirt for warmer weather.

    July 2024  ·  Thierry in Brooklyn, NY

  • Best fabric I've come across on this site in years. Well worth the high price.

    July 2024  ·  Chadwick in NEW YORK, NY

  • This is a soft fabric, much more than one would expect for such high linen content, but this gives it more character. The cream shade gives it a subdued flair that makes it ideal for neutral looks.
