All our shirts are in 100% cotton.
Most of them are in two-ply fabrics: two individual threads are twisted together to make one yarn and tightly woven creating a very smooth, strong fabric.
In the summer collection, we propose shirts in linen.
Poplin :
Poplin is a thin, fine-grained and silky fabric. The weaving is done with a silk warp and a weft of worsted yarn, both of the same colour. This combination gives depth and softness to the lustre of the fabric.
Our tip : A shirt made in poplin fabric can be worn for every occasion, particularly in the summertime. Poplin is the fabric generally chosen for formal occasions.
Twill :
Twill is a fabric with a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs. It is made by repeatedly passing the weft thread over one or more warp threads and then under two or more warp threads. Twill is supple and easy to iron.
Our tip : Twill is an elegant and rigid fabric which can be worn for every occasion.
Herringbone :
Herringbone resembles twill due to its diagonal structure. The repeat is achieved by alternating the direction of the motif. This kind of weaving makes the herringbone fabric easy to iron.
Our tip : Herringbone is a unique and elegant fabric, and is generally the same thickness as twill.
Gabardine :
Gabardine fabric is a tough, tightly woven fabric with a light reflective shine.
Our tip : Gabardine is an elegant fabric suitable for dress shirts.
Piqué :
Piqué has a vertical structure with raised parallel cords or fine ribbing which give the fabric a kind of relief.
Our tip : Piqué fabric can be worn for all occasions.
Oxford :
Oxford is a tough and thick fabric. The warp has two fine yarns paired together. The weft has one heavier, softly spun fill yarn and is usually colored, while the warp yarn is white.
Our tip : Oxford fabric is generally worn in a casual manner but can also be worn with a suit.
Pinpoint :
Pinpoint fabric weaving is the same as Oxford weaving but the grain is thinner and more elegant.
Our tip : Pinpoint fabric is suitable for all occasions.
Fil-à-fil :
Fil-à-fil is a dense and thin fabric. The weaving alternates two colours of yarn, one colour for the weft and the other for the warp. This weaving gives a cloudy effect to the fabric.
Our tip : Fil-à-fil fabric is generally worn casually or during the summer season.
