Description

Fabric Description

The perfect 3-season linen from 120-year-old mill Tessuti di Sondrio.

This 26s single-ply fabric has a particular heft to it that you don’t often find in 100% linen, putting it firmly at the intersection of substantial and breathable. Layer it under sweaters and sport coats in spring and fall, or in place of a white dress shirt to add some interest and texture. The dotted effect of the natural beige basketweave increases the fabric’s versatility, too. A beautiful and understated Italian casual to bolster your warmer weather wardrobe.

Recommended Styling: We love this one with our Soft Ivy Button Down collar and a Soft Front placket. Go with long sleeves for a more refined casual look.

  • This is a very heavy linen shirt, not ideal for warm summer nights rather for moderate temps. Can wear in fall and spring.

  • I found this linen a bit heavy and didn't like the way it draped. I find pure linen shirts a little uncomfortable so maybe its a personal choice thing. In future I will stick to the cotton linen mix fabrics on Proper Cloth.

  • I wanna say the first linen fabric I truly enjoyed

    November 2021  ·  Jeo in New York, NY

  • Awesome heavy soft linen. Love it.

    November 2021  ·  George in Mobile, AL

  • June 2021  ·  Sham in Boston, MA

  • Very luxurious with a nice heft. Feels like a sophisticated, formal take on linen.

    May 2021  ·  Cole in Bologna, BO

  • Sturdy linen with great testure. I hope it gets softer with wear.

    April 2021  ·  Joshua in OAKLAND, CA

  • great fabric

    March 2021  ·  Mike in Palm Beach Gardens, FL

  • Good weight and texture on this fabric; the weave was a bit chunkier than I expected and the drape is a touch stiff, but I suspect this will improve after a few washes.

    February 2021  ·  Steven in Union, NJ

  • Super casual fabric. Definitely this fabric puts off a little bit of a hippy vibe given how 'natural' a look this is. I got it in button down collar, soft placket.

    November 2020  ·  erik in Hobe Sound, FL

  • The fabric weight is very heavy...was surprised by the weight of this linen shirt.

    October 2020  ·  Wes in Birmingham, AL

  • Awesome shirt for the warmer months, but would also wear when it gets cool.

    October 2020  ·  Jeff in Lynnfield, MA

  • A bit of weight to it. Easy to match with the rest of the wardrobe.

    September 2020  ·  Jing in BROOKLYN, NY

  • For those days when white won’t do

    September 2020  ·  Scott in BOCA RATON, FL

  • Fabric came damaged from the packing pins. Had a hole in the sleeve.

    August 2020  ·  Tyler in Brooklyn, NY

  • Better than I imagined

    August 2020  ·  Hartman in PALM BCH GDNS, FL

  • Too heavy for a linen summer shirt and you can’t see the script monogram at all!

    August 2020  ·  Jay in Granite Bay, CA

  • Love this fabric. It's a bit heavier than I was expecting but it has a nice texture, looks fantastic and feels great.

    August 2020  ·  Bobby in London, England

  • Beautiful color with a bit of subtle variation, which I like. It's also very soft, and just a touch more substantial than some linens, which helps it to drape nicely. Overall very good!

    July 2020  ·  Scott in SILVER SPRING, MD

  • Not a lightweight fabric at all. Has a sturdy feel that I like. Wonderful neutral color.

    July 2020  ·  Donald in Rock Hill, MO

  • It met expectations in look and exceeded expectations in feel. It was better constructed than I had anticipated for a linen shirt, giving me the sense that the shirt will stand the test of time.

    July 2020  ·  Chris in Austin, TX

  • I LOVE this fabric. It's cooler beige than one might expect, but the heavy weight and texture is incredible. Ideal for a hearty-looking and comfortable casual shirt.

    July 2020  ·  David in Phila, PA

  • This is a great neutral linen fabric. As expected, it does not have any stretch, but has great breathability characteristics. I would recommend a loose fit for casual summer attire.

    July 2020  ·  Scott in TULSA, OK

  • Very nice drape with less wrinkling than other linen shirts. The weight lends versatility. I'd just say be careful because it doesn't have as much stretch so I can see the button separating the cloth a bit on the forearm.

    June 2020  ·  Alexander in SACRAMENTO, CA

  • Like the color, but wrinkles easily

    June 2020  ·  Michael J. in BONITA SPRINGS, FL

  • Thicker, quality linen. Wrinkle-prone, as linen is.

    June 2020  ·  Dylan in DAVENPORT, IA

  • classic

    June 2020  ·  Philipp in Hoboken, NJ

  • A surprisingly good shirt. The basket weave adds heft and texture but breaths, should be good for all but the hottest weather.. Will wear with a sweater in cold weather. Being linen it wrinkles , but that's alright in a casual shirt for walks around the lake with the dog.

    June 2020  ·  Anthony in SEATTLE, WA

  • My favorite texture and feel of the 6 linen shirts I ordered.

    June 2020  ·  Bryson in Carrollton, TX

  • Amazing color and fabric for summer . I selected Camp Collar · Short Sleeve Plain · No Placket Front Placket.

    June 2020  ·  Greg in New York, NY

  • Great fabric. Short sleeves a little tight but great fabric.

    June 2020  ·  John in Boston, MA

  • love this guy! a heavy linen but really nice and wears well.

    June 2020  ·  James in Coventry, -

  • Hefty linen, great construction. Feels awesome, looks great.

    June 2020  ·  Stanley in Kailua, HI

    May 2020  ·  Michael in Morganville, NJ

    May 2020  ·  Jack S. in New York, NY

    May 2020  ·  paul in Intercourse, PA

    May 2020  ·  Sean in Wynnewood, PA

  • Nice!

    April 2020  ·  Alex in BALTIMORE, MD

  • Wish fabric was not so thick

    April 2020  ·  Lisa in Cpu Village Of Golf, FL

  • A heavier linen. Beautiful fabric.

    April 2020  ·  fish in Dallas, TX

  • Great quality. Recommend.

    April 2020  ·  Omar in LAKEWOOD, CA

  • This fabric is very nice. The basketweave has enough weight and texture that the linen wears very comfortably! More comfortably than most linens I've had in the past

    April 2020  ·  Chad in New York, NY

  • Light oatmeal color combines easily with other clothing. Linen feels substantial and softer than expected because of the weave

    March 2020  ·  Colin in Brooklyn, NY
