Japanese Chambray Folk Stripe Fabric

$125

Description

Fabric Description

Woven and indigo dyed in Japan, this chambray fabric is the real deal. It has a subtle printed folk stripe that really ups the ante on a timeless casual design. Made in small batches on shuttle looms, a technique pioneered in America but perfected by Japanese mills, the slightly uneven weave gives this light indigo chambray incredible visual texture. The indigo dye will also fade out over time, meaning this shirt gets better the more you wear it. Since this fabric is woven with an indigo-dyed thread in the warp and white thread in the weft, out of the box it appears somewhat dark, but after washing the indigo deposits on the white thread, giving the shirt a softer, more even blue tone. As such, only wash with like colors. It will also soften up and break in significantly after the first wash, like the classic chambray shirt you always wanted. Definitely go with a soft collar, cuff and placket on this one; our Soft President Spread collar gives it a Western shirt vibe, or go for a Colorado Button Down for a solid casual look.

    April 2018  ·  Mark in ALEXANDRIA, VA

  • This is a great casual shirt. It has kind of western ranchhand feel to it, but the color makes it easily wearable with jeans. Very lightweight, but will show sweat.

    March 2018  ·  Collin in ATLANTA, GA

  • Classic fabric with style. Wish they had more of these fabrics with character.

    February 2018  ·  Randall in Plano, TX

  • February 2018  ·  Patrick in Cheyenne, WY

  • Light and breezy but not see through. A really attractive fabric. The white pattern was slightly lighter than I expected but not in a bad way. It’s subtle and very attractive.

    January 2018  ·  Ryan in Dumont, NJ

  • The color and striping are very nicely balanced. The fabric is thin and breathable (I recently wore on a 39C degree day), without being sloppy.

    January 2018  ·  Andrew in Castlemaine, VIC

  • Perfect weight for most climates

    January 2018  ·  Han Sung in Sydney, NSW

    January 2018  ·  Bryan in Dallas, TX

    December 2017  ·  Hugh in Hollywood, FL

    December 2017  ·  Paul in Ham Lake, MN

    November 2017  ·  Simon in Mountain View, CA

  • Nice pattern and light enough for summers in TX.

    November 2017  ·  Lewis in Sachse, TX

  • Good Summer Shirt

    November 2017  ·  Kevin in Toronto, Ontario

  • I like that this fabric is both relatively subtle and very distinctive -- there's nothing loud about it, but it's clearly not a J. Crew shirt. Texture is light and soft and the drape is really nice.

    November 2017  ·  Brian in Carlisle, PA

  • Great Product, great service!! Thank you

    November 2017  ·  Robert in Fairborn, OH

    October 2017  ·  J in Thomasville, GA

  • good for casual

    October 2017  ·  Thomas in Charlotte, NC

  • Again, it's not the product

    October 2017  ·  Robert in Easton, PA

  • Pattern is nice, but I was expecting a slightly thicker fabric.

    October 2017  ·  Drew in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert,

  • A different take on the striped blue shirt, this fabric is an excellent addition to any wardrobe. A minor drawback: it seems to wrinkle more than most other fabrics from PC.

    September 2017  ·  Eric in Southampton, NY

  • Great fabric for summer months. Looks great in a popover.

    September 2017  ·  Brett in SAN CLEMENTE, CA

  • Wonderful, slightly different chambray. Certainly makes a beautiful shirt.

    September 2017  ·  John in AUSTIN, TX

  • Beautiful, comfortable, and a great pattern and color. A fantastic cloth for a casual shirt.

    September 2017  ·  Brann in CENTENNIAL, CO

  • Holy smokes. This is an awesome fabric for casual wear. Looks great under a denim or leather jacket.
