Green Crimson and Yellow Indian Madras Fabric

$95

Description

Fabric Description

Prized for its light weight, breathability, and distinctive look, madras is an absolute warm weather staple. Ours is woven in India using 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 and feel 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. This muted green, crimson, and yellow plaid is a timeless style that works perfectly as either a long or short sleeve shirt.

Recommended Styling: Go with soft details. Our Soft Ivy Button Down collar with a Soft Front placket is a classic look, or update the traditional with our Soft President Spread and no placket.

    November 2019  ·  Jake in Los Angeles, CA

  • Fabric shrunk considerably. The fabric is not soft and thus not very comfortable. You have to iron after every wash, wrinkles like crazy.

  • Beautiful fabric, great colors for fall

    October 2019  ·  Aron in Los Angeles, CA

    October 2019  ·  R Eden in Lake Forest Park, WA

  • Beautiful madras! Very versatile too. It can be pressed for a crisp, dressed-up look, or worn softer for a more casual look.

    September 2019  ·  Hunter in Denver, CO

  • Very nice -soft and comfortable

    September 2019  ·  Tony in Calgary, Alberta

  • I wanted to like this so bad. It looks great on models at the website. After 3 washes in cold water, gentle cycle, air dry, never ironed, my shirt has shrunk to a point where the sleeves are too short, yoke too narrow and chest too small, midsection hugs. I hesitant to order a second Madras shirt.

    September 2019  ·  David in Henderson, NV

  • This might be my favorite shirt. The color palette is really nice, without being too shouty, or even obviously summery. And the cloth is the nicest madras cloth I've found - soft, light, and very comfortable.

    July 2019  ·  George in Mobile, AL

  • Very good fabric for a very lightweight summer shirt. Maybe a bit too dark for summer, but perfect for certain styles, like with dark trousers and jeans.

    July 2019  ·  Markus in Neufelden,

  • Light and breathable

    July 2019  ·  Daniel in Innisfil, Ontario

  • Love this pattern, just as expected, lightweight for summer, maybe for spring too would be OK. Not as dark as in pictures online but still very bright green and purple/maroon and yellow colors. Not super soft but soft enough. This will be a great summer shirt.

    July 2019  ·  Michael in Slc, UT

  • This shirt is nice--however, it is much darker than the way it appears in the photographs.

    July 2019  ·  Mark in Springfield, MO

  • Very happy with the earthy tones of this madras. Of course I went for old school soft button down. It should get nicely faded and soft with time.
