Portuguese Black Cotton Linen Blend Fabric

Fabric Description

In our minds, there's no situation in which you can't wear an oxford cloth button down (OCBD). There are times, however, when a pure cotton oxford wears a bit too warm. Our solution: the cotton and linen oxford.

This 55% cotton/45% linen blend we developed with our favorite Portuguese mill breathes incredibly well while retaining the substantial feel of a classic oxford weave. The fabric has a bit of slub from the linen which gives it beautiful texture and character, and it’s more durable and opaque than most cotton/linen blends, too. Expect it to age phenomenally and become your go-to warm weather shirt. This dark, saturated black pairs well with jeans or chinos, and is equally at home under an unlined sport coat.

Recommended Styling: Go with a Soft Ivy Button Down collar for a classic oxford look or a Soft President Spread collar for an easygoing casual look. Forego the placket for a sleeker design.

    5 weeks ago  ·  John in Krakow, Maopolskie

  • Great fabric. Light and breezy for warmer environments.

    last month  ·  Cory in Spring, TX

  • Great color, but is a little rough to the touch. But that gives is a more rugged feel. It's good for a casual shirt, perhaps not a dress shirt.

    last month  ·  Benjamin in WASHINGTON, DC

  • It also seems to wrinkle quickly and the fabric is too heavy for me.

    last month  ·  Robert in Rosemont, IL

  • No issues with the fabric itself

    March 2024  ·  Denis in San Francisco, CA

  • Very stiff fabric, stands much better than many linens. Some might find it to starchy feeling, but this was a plus for me.

    February 2024  ·  Nelson in New York, NY

  • Yes I like the drape of the fabric

    February 2024  ·  Thomas in Southlake, TX

  • Heavier than I expected it to be but it's still an extremely comfortable shirt.

    February 2024  ·  Claudio in New York, NY

  • Feels a little bit stiff.

    February 2024  ·  Yoshi in San Marcos, CA

  • The material feels a bit cheap

    February 2024  ·  Al in Delray Beach, FL

  • The texture and color of this fabric sets it apart from the other black fabric offerings.

    February 2024  ·  Anthony in Chino Hills, CA

  • I am pleasantly surprised at how versatile this fabric has turned out. The hand feel and breathability are exactly what you would expect of linen, but the cotton gives the shirt a wonderful structure. Not the purest black colour out of the box (think: darkest possible charcoal), but the colour has not faded from its original shade after five washes. Pairs great with jeans or dressier trousers.

    January 2024  ·  Rob in Boardman, OH

  • Beautiful nice black linen shirt, fairly wrinkled resistant

    January 2024  ·  BOB in Yorba Linda, CA

  • Really good fabric. A little stiff just after washing at first maybe, but should soften up nicely. Feels high quality and holds color well; very pleasant against the skin.

    January 2024  ·  Jeffrey in SAN DIEGO, CA

  • Didn’t love the quality of the fabric. Felt a little cheaper than others. Not terrible, just not as good as some of the other shirts I’ve ordered.

    January 2024  ·  Sameer in Chevy Chase, MD

  • This is an ideal fabric for hot summer evenings.

    January 2024  ·  Donald in Paris, Paris

    December 2023  ·  Ryan in Williamsburg, VA

    December 2023  ·  Timothy in Hermitage, TN

  • Perfect blend of Cotton and linen that makes the shirt great for vacations or evenings out. Great quality fabric.

    December 2023  ·  Quinton in Park City, UT

  • The fit is huge, I had to wash it in extra hot water, which luckily made it the correct size. The shirt looks a little unsophisticated. It's not my favorite.

    December 2023  ·  Jesse in New York, NY

  • nice shirt -- linen is a little stiff to start

    December 2023  ·  Larry in Atherton, CA

  • Exactly what I hoped it would be!

    December 2023  ·  JD in STUART, FL

  • I have other cotton-linen blends from PC that I love for their quality and for being slightly unusual. Same for this. Great charcoal color and cool hand to the fabric.

    December 2023  ·  Paul in Kenosha, WI

  • Nice material!

    December 2023  ·  Robert in Orlando, FL

  • Black is not usually versatile, but this has a more casual vibe as it wrinkles and is not shiny.

    December 2023  ·  Jim in Wiletton, WA

  • Wonderful - soft and luxurious

    December 2023  ·  Saqib in markham, ontario

  • It's a great black linen. More structured than loose. Very flattering. A really nice masculine alternative to white or off-white linen.

    December 2023  ·  Oscar in New York, NY

  • THIS SHIRT IS LIKE A THICK PIECE OF CARDBOARD HEAVY AND STIFF. I DONT SEE ANYONE BEING ABLE TO TUCK THIS IN.

    December 2023  ·  Claude in ATLANTA, GA

  • Great fabric for a daily wear shirt. Perfect weight to look professional while not being constricting.

    November 2023  ·  Stewart in Delta, BC

  • This is a great fabric for a business casual shirt. It has a subtle texture and feels light against the skin. Great for cool or warm weather.

    November 2023  ·  James in Erie, CO

  • Fabric is ok but doesn’t quite know what it wants to be. A little stiff for Oxford or linen. PC has better choices in this blend

    November 2023  ·  H W HUGH in MADISON, AL

  • Crisp. Clean. Gorgeous fabric.

    November 2023  ·  David in Heathcote, NY
