Japanese Slate Blue Chambray Fabric

$130

Description

Fabric Description

Woven and dyed in Japan, this selvage chambray is the real deal. Made in small batches on shuttle looms, a technique pioneered in America but perfected by Japanese mills, the slightly uneven weave and melange yarn gives this dark slate chambray incredible visual texture. We love the color on this one, sort of in between charcoal and blue, with more variation the closer you look at it. The dye will also fade out over time, meaning this shirt gets better the more you wear it. Woven with slubby 20s single ply yarns, it will soften up and break in significantly after the first wash, like the classic chambray shirt you always wanted. Only wash with like colors.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.

  • Gets softer and more comfortable with each washing. One of my favorite weekend shirts. So happy I got it as a popover with a band collar - just the right style for this material.

  • This is a great Chambray shirt fabric. I wish it were offered again. Very comfortable and fairly wrinkly resistant.

    July 2021  ·  George in Cypress, TX

  • A great indigo fabric with a soft feel that only gets softer after subsequent washes!

    November 2020  ·  Jimmy in SAN JOSE, CA

  • I would have rather designed it differently but the fabric was a little to thin.

    October 2020  ·  Brendan in Manhattan Beach, CA

  • It has a unique and good feel to it.

    October 2020  ·  Alan in GLENDALE, CA

  • Love the fabric. Rich, dark tones. Very light and breathable. It does wrinkle very easily, particularly after a wash. Recommend an iron/press set up if you use this highly-recommend fabric.

    August 2020  ·  Travis in SEATTLE, WA

  • A great chambray with a deep hue that really works well with tonal colors

    July 2020  ·  Nick in Lumberville, PA

  • Cool shade of blue, but looked similar to other shirts I've purchased from here.

    March 2020  ·  Robert in Morganville, NJ

    March 2020  ·  jeron in Chino Hills, CA

    February 2020  ·  John in Morgantown, WV

  • One of my favorite shirts

    December 2019  ·  Richard in Aldie, VA

  • Beautiful color. Great feel and drape. Doesn't wrinkle as much as I feared. Is does shrink after the second wash, even in cold water.

    December 2019  ·  Irven in Madison, GA

  • This fabric softens and becomes more casual with every wash (so far) and I love it!

    December 2019  ·  Andrew in Newark, NY

  • FANTASTIC, VERY unique color – I wish Proper Cloth would bring this fabric back. EXCELLENT match with a navy jacket as part of a more tonal outfit. Does run a little large, though.

    November 2019  ·  Benjamin in Long Lake, MN

  • Very soft. Can dress up or down

    November 2019  ·  Peter in Dundee, OR

  • I like PCs Japanese chambrays. Having missed a recent offer of a patterned cloth, I bought this one and am at least as pleased. Extremely soft, I designed this would with a very wide spread collar for casual wear. Excellent complement to other indigo dyed garments.

    November 2019  ·  Stephen in DENVER, CO

  • Very nice colour!

    October 2019  ·  Steve in Iqaluit, Nunavut

  • Very nice fabric. It is substantial yet light enough for warm days. The color is very versatile and can wear with anything- barring denim. I would re-order if I lost my shirt.

    October 2019  ·  Brian in Azusa, CA

  • Great!

    October 2019  ·  Damian in Floral Park, NY

  • Nice casual fabric that can be dressed up or down depending on what you wear it with and your work environment. I recommend pairing this fabric with modern features (no placket, more formal collar) to give it a cleaner look.

    October 2019  ·  Cory in Larchmont, NY

  • I like this fabric / shirt. The only challenge is that it was hard to avoid a slight placket bump with this fabric, but ultimately was ok with it.

    October 2019  ·  Matt in Brooklyn, NY

    October 2019  ·  Paul in Muskogee, OK

    October 2019  ·  Eric in Brooklyn, NY

  • Fabric is good and light. Haven't washed it yet and can't comments on wrinkle resistance.

    September 2019  ·  Prabhakar in Sunnyvale, CA

    August 2019  ·  Johannes in New York, NY

    August 2019  ·  Kevin in New York, NY

    August 2019  ·  Shawn in Golden, CO

  • Good quality shirt.

    July 2019  ·  Jay in CUMMING, GA

  • Material is a bit lighter than I assumed based on pictures but still a nice product all around

    July 2019  ·  Evan in MIAMI, FL

  • Not really what i was expecting. Looked different on the website. Not sure about keeping or not.

    June 2019  ·  Steve in Randolph, NJ

  • It almost has a linen feel/drape. I love the color, and the pictures are a good representation of how it looks (which is important because it doesn't feel/look like traditional chambray)
