Japanese Navy Performance Seersucker Fabric

~~$125~~ $85

A classic navy blue seersucker with incredible performance. There’s nothing quite like a seersucker fabric to get you through the dog days of summer. Widely worn in the hot, muggy South, seersucker’s special uneven puckering gives it less surface area contact with the skin, increasing airflow under the shirt and allowing heat to dissipate more quickly. This version is woven in Japan from a premium blend of cotton and polyester that provides breathability, stretch, and wrinkle resistance for comfortable wear and a clean look. A timeless navy with thin alternating puckered stripes, it’s perfect for everything from the beach to post-work drinks. Wear it as an untucked short sleeve shirt with shorts, or dress it up with side-tab-styled dress pants.

Recommended Styling: Go with a Soft Franklin Spread collar and no placket for a modern, clean look. Note that due to the special nature of seersucker fabrics, they can only be made using soft, unfused collars, cuffs, and fronts/plackets.

“Cool performance fabric - stretches while maintaining a stiff structure like seersucker. Great for hot weather. Resists wrinkle - I wore a shirt all day and it looked the same when I took it off.”

“This is my third Seersucker fabric shirt from Proper Cloth and I think it's my favorite so far. The Seersucker texture is very subtle and elegant and it's very comfortable. It does wrinkle a bit easily but so do my other two shirts in the same fabric, and nothing outside of the normal shirt fabric performance. A very nice shirt in general. Very comfortable. I wore it to a party last night and got several comments.”
