Portuguese Dark Slate 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 beautifully varied navy is incredibly versatile—pair it with everything from chinos or shorts to an unlined sport coat.

Recommended Styling: Go with our Soft Ivy Button Down collar for a classic oxford look, or our Soft Franklin Spread for a more modern vibe. We prefer to go with an elevated no-placket design.

    February 2025  ·  Tyler in IRVING, TX

  • Beautifully dark indigo blue, a great shirt for a more casual look

    July 2024  ·  Steven in Vancouver, BC

  • Not the most easiest fabric to work with. Needs lots of ironing. Beautiful though.

    April 2024  ·  Stephen in Shepherdstown, WV

  • high quality

    April 2024  ·  Tony in Tulsa, OK

  • Feels great right out of the box, and I can already tell it will feel even better after several wears and washes.

    April 2024  ·  Andrew in Houston, TX

  • I like this fabric. The wrinkles aren't too bad – could wear it without ironing if you hang it really well to dry.

    April 2024  ·  Oscar in Menlo Park, CA

  • An excellent shirt.

    April 2024  ·  Michael in Jersey City, NJ

    April 2024  ·  Darrell in Missouri City, TX

    April 2024  ·  Stephen in Hillsborough, NJ

  • A little darker in person than in the pictures but nice fabric.

    March 2024  ·  David in Austin, TX

  • Not sure yet. It was too shiny to wear on arrival. I have washed it and it looks better

    March 2024  ·  Scott in Atlantic Beach, FL

  • Great fabric!

    March 2024  ·  Bryan in Falcon Heights, MN

  • Crinklier/wrinklier than expected.

    March 2024  ·  Jacob in Singapore,

  • cool shirt for casual business and others

    February 2024  ·  Andreas in Waldshut-Tiengen,

  • There is less drape than I was expecting, as the fabric is a bit on the stiff side. I still love it though and would order it again

    January 2024  ·  Dan in Seattle, WA

  • Perfect shirt for casual or vacation

    December 2023  ·  David in Basking Ridge, NJ

  • A solid choice for refined denim

    November 2023  ·  Robert in Meridian, ID

  • It was way too wrinkled and would require pressing which I am not prepared to do myself.

    October 2023  ·  Paul in Biddeford, ME

  • A bit shinier than I expected, but I love it. A distinctive texture that makes it a bit less formal.

    October 2023  ·  Chuck in Ellicott City, MD

  • Love the fabric. Not as wrinkle resistant as I'd like but it does drape and perform well throughout the day.

    September 2023  ·  Charles in LAND O LAKES, FL

  • This is a good fabric. It wears a little rough after the first couple of washes, but I am sure it will soften up more with time. It is a linen blend so that is to be expected. I love the look of the fabric and the weight is great for hot days.

    September 2023  ·  Samuel in AUSTIN, TX

  • It’s wrinkling

    August 2023  ·  Ryan in SAN FRANCISCO, CA

  • Did not like the material feel and fit.

    July 2023  ·  Fred in Deerfield, IL

  • Stands up well with the right collar. Cool texture and color.

    July 2023  ·  Carlton in Chicago, IL

  • The blend led to some cotton strands pulling

    July 2023  ·  Elliott in Wesley Chapel, FL

  • Great shade of blue and comfortable

    June 2023  ·  Nuno in North york, Ontario

  • A little heavier weight than expected for a traditional summer cloth.

    June 2023  ·  Robert in Syracuse, UT

  • This was more of a dark grey slate in person than online. Still terrific, but be aware of the difference.

    May 2023  ·  John in Roxbury, CT

  • Nice appearance.

    May 2023  ·  Ryan in Boulder, CO

    May 2023  ·  Michael in HOUSTON, TX

    April 2023  ·  Benjamin in New York, NY

  • Nice look and weight for the incoming warmer weather!

    April 2023  ·  Thomas in Friday Harbor, WA

  • Great

    April 2023  ·  Ryan in Pacific, MO

  • The shirt came in extremely large. I'm going on vacation and wanted to bring this shirt, so I took it to a local tailor for alterations. This shirt runs larger than my sizing and fits much different than dress shirts I've ordered with the same profile through Proper Cloth.

    October 2022  ·  Max in New York, NY

  • Beautiful!

    October 2022  ·  Jonathan in DPO, AE

  • Great color and fabric. Has held up nicely over the summer. Does get a little wrinkled but nothing like full linen.

    October 2022  ·  Keith in WEST CHESTER, PA

  • Heavier linen shirt that looks great with darker buttons.

    September 2022  ·  Jared in WASHINGTON, DC

  • It’s a but thicker than I expected for a summer cotten/linen blend. But, I wore it on a summer day in NY and the fabric performed well!

    September 2022  ·  Wassim in Jenks, OK

  • Very comfortable, breathable, and looks great!
