Japanese Charcoal Double Cloth Fabric

Fabric Description

One of our softest fabrics to date, this unique charcoal double cloth wears almost like a t-shirt. It's made in Japan using a special process the that actually weaves together two lightweight fabrics. The result is this incredible gauzy cotton shirt that's decidedly casual and remarkably comfortable. It's woven using 40s single-ply yarns and has a dark charcoal grey color that uses melange yarn for added color variation. We also love how the inner side of the fabric uses a lighter shade of grey, so you get a unique double face effect that really ups the ante. Keep in mind you'll see the lighter grey when you roll up your sleeves. You'll definitely want soft details all around, and we love the way this looks with a band collar.

  • Color looks just like it does on the website. Super soft. The shirt never looks all that crisp, so definitely best for a casual look.

  • Very soft and comfortable. Its a very casual shirt

    February 2019  ·  Greg in Ottawa, Ontario

  • Amazing, beautiful fabric that really stands out even in a muted color. The only drawback is that the double cloth seems to hold fibers and pet hair that catch between the layers and stick out, making it hard to keep clean and sometimes scratch on the neck.

  • Nice Fabric

    October 2018  ·  Bernard in New York, NY

    August 2018  ·  Matthew in New York, NY

  • This was a little thicker then expected but the material feels great. Definitely not a shirt for the warmer days but perfect for the winter.

    June 2018  ·  Alex in Santa Ana, CA

  • It's an interesting fabric for casual wear.

    December 2017  ·  Alex in SALT LAKE CITY, UT

  • Wrinkled a little easily for me, but was a nice shirt. Would order the fabric again.

  • I've lived in Japan, so I'm familiar with the concept of this fabric, although I never owned a shirt made of it until now. I mated it with a pale pink inner collar and cuffs, which really give the shirt an extra 'pop' against the charcoal and slate grey. If you've never experienced this type of fabric, it's similar to a double-faced fabric, but without the extra stiffness. It does however, wrinkle like a Shar Pei! I suggest embracing the wrinkly nature (not unlike a linen), rather than trying to fight it. I'd also suggest a more casual fit, rather than a formal one, as it will lie better on the body.

  • heavy material but looks and feels lightweight, easy to wear. to me this is a nice material for a casual look.

    July 2017  ·  Giri in Newport Coast , CA

  • Fantastic

    May 2017  ·  Jordan in COLUMBUS, OH

  • Really soft and easy to care for. Decent amount of shrinkage when put in dryer but overall great shirt.

    March 2017  ·  Keith in SAN DIEGO, CA

    January 2017  ·  Paul in New York, NY

  • This is a great shirt and a very nice light fabric.

    January 2017  ·  Michael in Bedford, NY

  • I didn't quite follow the laundering instructions (which are clear) and despite the shirt's needing the benefit of some ironing, I find I wear this shirt more often than I'd have guessed.

    January 2017  ·  Peter in Charlemont, MA

  • These people have no idea how to cut this fabric to fit you, they will cut it 1" longer than your "custom" size and just HOPE it shrinks to the right one. Will update after 2nd round in wash if it actually fits then, but not hopeful, still ~ 1/2 inch too long in sleeves and length after first wash, plus super baggy in the back, can't even tuck it in, looks like it came off the rack.

    December 2016  ·  Matthew in New York, NY

  • Soft and comfortable Subtle pattern

    December 2016  ·  alexander in New York, NY

    December 2016  ·  William in CHICAGO, IL

  • Double cloth is just amazing.

    December 2016  ·  Andrew in SAN DIEGO, CA

  • Nice fabric!

    December 2016  ·  Nick in Katonah, NY

  • The close up details are nice and I do like the color when looked up close, but when taken as a whole shirt, the subtlety of the fabric starts to get lost and it just looks very monochromatic and plain. Its comfortable and soft and I love the fabric, but the pattern / color ended up being a bit of a miss.

    December 2016  ·  James in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

  • Very soft after washing, shrinks a bit more than the the other fabrics, nice drape. Definitely keep this out of the dryer!

    December 2016  ·  William in San Francisco, CA

  • A heavier fabric than I expected but a great winter casual

    November 2016  ·  Chris in New York, NY

  • I love the fabric. There is a little damage (on the cuff) already from ~2 wearings. I'm chalking it up to chance, because I'm so pleased otherwise.

    October 2016  ·  Steven in New York, NY
