Portuguese Navy Delave Linen Fabric

Fabric Description

We searched high and low for the perfect navy linen shirt and love the way this one from Portugal looks. It's woven in Portugal with a special Delave yarn that gives it a bit of extra color variation and will slowly fade in color for an incredible look. A summer essential if there ever was one. We love linen because of its airy, open weave--which leaves you feeling much cooler than you otherwise might on a blisteringly hot summer day. Linen has a natural slubby texture and part of their charm is how they wrinkle. Don't worry about pressing this one, just let it look well-worn and relaxed. And our linen shirts only get better the more they're washed as the more rigid fiber breaks down and becomes soft with wear. We suggest going for soft construction throughout--our Soft President Spread Collar, soft placket, and soft one-button cuff will be a great combo.

  • There must have been a cutting error with this one. WAY too big.

    January 2019  ·  Mitch in Concord, MA

  • Best linen shirt I own, at any price. It wears and wears and continues to look new. Very much my weekend go-to, and highly recommended.

    October 2018  ·  Scott in Ontario, CA

  • Fantastic. The ultimate linen shirt.

    September 2018  ·  Cole in Bologna, BO

  • This shirt actually fit. It is my favorite shirt.

    November 2017  ·  James in Stanford, CA

  • I would have expected the fabric to breathe more than it does and faded very quickly.

    November 2017  ·  Jeff in Long Island City, NY

  • Loved it, and then it was no longer available.

    May 2017  ·  Jerry in Greenville, SC

  • One of my favorites. Very versatile

    March 2017  ·  John in Patchogue, NY

  • Great dark linen, takes a few washings to soften but that's linen.

    March 2017  ·  Asher in Brooklyn, NY

  • Nice casual fabric. A bit wrinkle prone, but looks good.

    March 2017  ·  Tomoyuki in Burke, VA

  • Awesome

    March 2017  ·  Scott in Seal Beach, CA

  • Fun shirt - not a must have

    January 2017  ·  Evan in New York, NY

  • There's a bit too much fabric in the soft collar but that's a minor complaint to an otherwise great product.

    December 2016  ·  Dagoberto in New York, NY

  • Beautiful color, but standard downsides of linen. For some reason I found this to be a bit looser than other shirts, but still very comfortable.

    November 2016  ·  Andrew in Elyria, OH

  • love the slubby texture of this fabric

    October 2016  ·  Issey in Chatham, NY

  • This has a nice feel and good color

    October 2016  ·  Ed in LOS ANGELES, CA

  • Dark but soft and nice

    October 2016  ·  Larry in Margate City, NJ

  • This is a great shirt for warmer climates, a versatile colour (looks great with jeans) and with a little casual texture looks good with a casual blazer.

    September 2016  ·  lachlan in Brisbane, Queensland

  • linen is great. requires a few washes to soften up though.

    August 2016  ·  Michael in Shorewood, WI

  • Light and comfortable...relaxed, works with jeans and shorts in summer. Yes it wrinkles but it is linen. Very easy care.

    August 2016  ·  Michael in Manchester-By-The-Sea, MA

  • A nice take on a classic Navy linen shirt. It's a bit lighter, like a midnight shade and it has a very cool slight contrast to the warp and weft, making it much more interesting.

    August 2016  ·  John in New York, NY

  • good

    August 2016  ·  Barry in Mill Valley, CA

  • Rich deep color - love this shirt as a semi formal linen

    August 2016  ·  Hratch in San Francisco, CA

    August 2016  ·  Benjamin in brooklyn, NY

    July 2016  ·  Nick in Nottingham, Nottinghamshire

  • This shirt looks great with jeans but really pops with khaki pants/shorts. Very happy with the purchase.

    July 2016  ·  Theodore in Austin, TX

  • Great fabric, lots of compliments with yellow/blue tie.

    July 2016  ·  Stephen in Shaker Heights, OH

  • Nice color variation for linen.

    July 2016  ·  Graham in BROOKLYN, NY

  • GREAT WEIGHT. NOT TOO THIN.

    July 2016  ·  Theodore in Sandia Park, NM

  • Great linen. Too bad they sold out

    July 2016  ·  Nick in Fort Lee, NJ

  • Gorgeous fabric.

    July 2016  ·  Gene in Houston, TX

  • Really nice. Substantial while still being lightweight.

    June 2016  ·  Eric in North Palm Beach, FL

  • Very comfortable, and I look forward to wearing this. It got a little wrinkled after I washed it once. I might try dry cleaning it rather than using a washer.

    June 2016  ·  Josh in Los Angeles, CA

  • Cool texture. Great summer shirt.

    June 2016  ·  Jason in Hoboken, NJ

  • very rich linen

    June 2016  ·  Charles in louisville, KY

  • Like the shirt but am concerned it may be a bit shiny after washing.

    June 2016  ·  Richard in New York, NY

  • Pilled a bit after first few washes but gotten better with wear overall. The coloration has changed too.

    June 2016  ·  Blue in SAN DIEGO, CA

  • This fabric has a sophisticated sheen in the sun whereas shade brings out more of the irregular tones, which lends the fabric a touch of noblesse. Naturally, comfort will develop over time, as with all linen fabrics.

    May 2016  ·  Tobias in Menlo Park, CA

  • Love the color. Very soft and comfortable.
