Portuguese Grey Cotton Linen Oxford Fabric

$125

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 grey 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.

“amazing fabric”

September 2020 · Imran in Pasadena, CA
“One of my favorite fabrics. This particular grey doesn't have the sheen that pops as depicted. It's a murkier, drier grey, that will almost look like a light tan in some light. But still good. The fabric itself keeps a sharper look than most linens due to the cotton blend, so you avoid the usual frumpy linen look, but still casual.”

August 2020 · James in Homewood, AL
