Japanese Washed Blackwatch Country Plaid Fabric

Fabric Description

Plaid shirts of old were often woven super thick and heavy, ready to stand up to even the most demanding work. We love the look and feel of these perfectly broken-in shirts with their super hardy weaves, so we worked with a small Japanese mill that specializes in these fabrics to develop this blackwatch plaid with just those qualities in mind. It's woven using a special 10/1 x 10/1 construction. These thick, textured yarns result in the perfect fabric for more rugged casual shirts. The plaid design is timeless and features more subdued tones of blue, black, and green that are easy to wear. We recommend going with soft details all around—we like this one with our Soft Franklin Spread collar, Soft Front placket, and Soft Long One-Button cuff.

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

  • Super interesting, slightly gauzy fabric that's a bit different than your standard flannel. The colors are a bit subdued but it makes the shirt easy to wear with anything.

    April 2022  ·  Ben in CHICAGO, IL

  • Beautiful but subtle pattern. The fabric is a bit more rugged than your classic flannel but holds its shape nicely. Not a super warm flannel, better for moderate temperatures.

    November 2021  ·  Joshua in WELLESLEY, MA

  • Love this shirt

    October 2021  ·  Joseph in Bellevue, DE

  • This shirt shrank even after following the care instructions

    June 2021  ·  Sam in STUDIO CITY, CA

  • Good quality and very soft

    May 2021  ·  Anthony in Lolo, MT

  • A classic

    May 2021  ·  Stuart in Encinitas, CA

  • Warm, chunky, and wonderful

    March 2021  ·  Jordan in Phila, PA

  • Perhaps my favorite Proper Cloth fabric. Good looking, warm, and tough wearing. The tartan pattern and thick yarn makes the shirt look interesting yet not distracting when close up. My favorite casual shirt is made out of this stuff. I wear it near daily in the winters. The Blackwatch pattern is not currently available, but I will heartily recommend any Japanese washed plaids from Proper Cloth.

    December 2020  ·  Daniel in VIENNA, VA

  • Didn’t love this fabric. Felt a bit more like a dish cloth than a shirt. A little to thick for a comfortable flannel.

    September 2020  ·  Will in San Francisco, CA

  • Not a lot of structure. Kind of a sloppy drape.

    February 2020  ·  Eric in BEND, OR

  • I liked the fabric, I did not like the collar. I like a sturdier collar

    January 2020  ·  Troy in Brooklyn, NY

  • Great casual shirt

    January 2020  ·  Daniel in Washington, DC

  • I like my shirt made from this material a lot, and it was definitely a favorite for a while. It's very thick, so great for cold weather. It's reasonably soft, but not as much as a flannel. I'm knocking off one star only because it shrank a bit more than I was hoping and it does lend itself to pilling before too long.

    January 2020  ·  Gary in Matawan, NJ

  • Too heavy for Florida where I live

    January 2020  ·  herbert in BOYNTON BEACH, FL

  • To thin for flannel. MUCH too much stretch. Doesn’t hold shape or compliment physique beneath.

    January 2020  ·  Christopher in Mount Kisco, NY

  • Awesome heavyweight shirt, but unfortunately the fabrics tends to pill, which makes it appear a bit cheap, even though it wasn't in the slightest

    December 2019  ·  Tim in Leiden, Leiden

  • Love this shirt; wear it all the time.

    December 2019  ·  Taylor in SEATTLE, WA

    October 2019  ·  hugh in Rock Hill, SC

    September 2019  ·  Mike in Frankfort, IL

    September 2019  ·  Christopher in PORTLAND, OR

  • Super comfortable. Love this fabric, awesome for winter and fall.

    September 2019  ·  Joseph in FORT WORTH, TX

  • Super-thick, dark flannel.

    September 2019  ·  Mitch in Concord, MA

  • Perfect traditional black watch pattern. Heavyweight, but due to the slightly open weave has more breath-ability than expected.

    September 2019  ·  Matthew in Smithville, TX

  • My favorite shirt.

    August 2019  ·  Joe in CLEVELAND, OH

  • Softer than expected. Hint of stretch. Better than other PC flannels I’ve ordered.

    August 2019  ·  Steve in Dallas, TX

  • Tends to pill more than expected, feels warm and comfortable

    August 2019  ·  Kevin in New York, NY

  • Heavy duty and provides a layer for warmth. Washed/dry-cleaned many times and has minor-to-no pilling that some heavy fabrics may be susceptible to

    August 2019  ·  leo in New York, NY

  • Very rustic -- lovely fabric!

    July 2019  ·  Kane in REDWOOD CITY, CA

  • Warm, heavy, soft, all around great

    July 2019  ·  Ryan in Fernie, BC

  • Very heavy, very soft fabric. Awesome for a fall night on the porch or by a campfire. Definitely an outdoor shirt.

    July 2019  ·  Eric in Corinth, TX

  • A classic heavyweight fabric that looks great with jeans.

    July 2019  ·  Dustin in Bethesda, MD

  • My go-to winter shirt. A heavy fabric that breathes really well. I rock it as a casual dress up - untucked with a pair of leather chukkas.

    July 2019  ·  Dave in PORTLAND, OR

  • Nice weight, not thin. The colors are amazing. It’s everything that I hoped for.

    June 2019  ·  Thomas in Lancaster, PA

  • love this shirt, wear it to work every day through winter.

    June 2019  ·  Kevin in New York, NY

  • Very good

    June 2019  ·  Florian in Munich, Bavaria

  • Thick but runs cool since the weave is very open.

    June 2019  ·  Alexander in VALLEJO, CA

  • Beautiful example of Japanese flannel. The weave is actually entrancing when you look closely.

    May 2019  ·  Tyler in Seattle, WA

  • Great, fabric, unfortunately miscut so I had to return

    April 2019  ·  Dion in Hillsborough, NJ

  • Very soft.

    April 2019  ·  Barry in Oxnard, NY

  • A substantial, weighty flannel (although not as soft as you'd expect).

    March 2019  ·  Matt in Downers Grove, IL

  • I've worn this every week for the last 4 months.

    March 2019  ·  Kyle in Washington, DC, DC

  • It is a nice, thick, and solid plaid. Not a summer shirt, but great for colder temperatures.

    March 2019  ·  Jeff in Warrenton, VA

  • The fabric is very high quality, but the combination of its heavy weight and slight stretch make it hang on the body in a weird way. It has a somewhat formless/potato sack look.

    March 2019  ·  Bradford in San Diego, CA

  • love the pattern and colors. Would have preferred a straight flannel fabric vs.this double cloth. Of all the shirts I have bought this fabric is my least favorite.

    March 2019  ·  Michael in Fairfax Station, VA

  • This is a heavy warm fabric. Amazing for winter. The color combination feels modern but vintage at the same time. I changed the measurements to wear it untucked with jeans / slacks.

    March 2019  ·  Hector in East Elmhurst, NY
