Rose and Ocean Blue California Plaid Fabric

~~$130~~ $100

A lightweight and unbelievably soft casual twill.

We worked with our favorite Portuguese mill, Somelos, to develop this beautiful plaid in a light, fresh color palette. The rosy pink and ocean blue work together to create a pattern that's unique and bold yet easy to wear. This fabric is woven with a 50s 2-ply twill construction that's a comfortable weight for all four seasons, and while it has the look and feel of a classic flannel, its soft, unbrushed finish and lighter weight give it great seasonal versatility. Try it as a light overshirt with a t-shirt and shorts, or pair it with chinos for something casual but a little more refined.

Recommended Styling: Go with soft, unfused details on this one. Our Soft President Spread collar, no placket, and Mother of Pearl buttons make for an elevated casual look.

“Love the California Plaids - this fabric makes some of the most comfortable shirts I have. Great for summer and spring!”

Nick in New York, NY
“Airy but with substance. It’s a great shirt fabric for summer days. There’s just enough texture without it being too rough. The colors are bold but not in your face. Good for standing out but not making a scene.”

Royce in Emeryville, CA
“This fabric is sturdy yet soft against the skin, it breathes well even though it is heavier, and it maintains its shape well after laundering.”
