The men's chambray shirt, US Navy construction
In the early 20th century, chambray dressed American workwear and navy uniforms. It differs from denim by its plain weave: an indigo-dyed warp thread crossed with a light weft, made to resist and breathe in hot environments. This men's chambray shirt takes up the construction of the naval shirts of the 1940s and 1950s: two chest pockets, a classic collar, a double-thickness button placket.
- Material: 100% cotton chambray, 8 oz, indigo warp, ecru weft
- Construction: chain-stitched yoke and swallowtail vents, after the US Navy
- Buttons: four-hole cat's-eye, tone-on-tone navy blue
- Finish: double-thickness button placket, white topstitching
- Origin: pre-washed, made in Morocco
Cut and sizing
Fitted cut, with about 6 cm (2.4 in) of ease around the chest. From S to XXL, half chest runs from 51 to 59 cm (20 to 23.2 in), front length from 71 to 77.5 cm (28 to 30.5 in) and sleeve from 63 to 66 cm (24.8 to 26 in); it also comes in XS and 3XL. Take your usual size; if you have broad shoulders, take the size above to avoid any tension on the front. To measure your half chest, run the tape under the armpits and divide by two.
How to wear an indigo chambray shirt
Tucked in or loose, the length allows it. On its own, sleeves rolled up, with a beige chino. Under an open sand moleskin jacket. With ecru jeans, so the indigo stands out.
Care
Wash it as rarely as possible. When needed: 30 °C (86 °F) inside out, short cycle, mild detergent with no bleaching agent, separately the first few times, because indigo bleeds. No tumble dryer: air dry in the shade. Iron at medium heat on the reverse if needed.
An 8 oz chambray with a slub surface
The cloth is a 100% cotton chambray, 8 oz. At this weight, the cloth gains density: it limits creasing and holds the silhouette all day, without stiffness. Its surface is slubbed and slightly irregular, and the indigo, carried by the warp thread, evolves with washing to create a patina specific to each wearer. The shirt is pre-washed, to stabilise its dimensions and soften the material a little.
Patine et durabilité
In three years, this chambray will have faded your way.
In the early 20th century, chambray dressed American workwear and navy uniforms. This shirt takes up the construction of naval shirts of the 1940s and 1950s, in an 8 oz chambray, indigo warp and ecru weft, with a slub surface. Here is how it patinates.
-
La pièce en 100% indigo cotton, matière ferme, la teinte indigo pleine, finitions nettes.
-
La pièce s’adapte là où elle travaille le plus : bords, coutures et poches.
-
Les plis d’usage se marquent et reviennent d’un port à l’autre.
-
Lavage à 30 °C, sur l’envers, sans sèche-linge.
-
Bords et zones de frottement pâlissent en premier.
-
le indigo s’éclaircit aux arêtes et aux plis, sans jamais pâlir d’un bloc.
-
Familière, souple, toujours tenue.
-
Une couture, un bouton, un accroc se reprennent à l’atelier.
-
Une pièce entretenue gagne en caractère ce qu’elle perd en neuf.
Its slub surface gives a patina proper to each wearer: two shirts will never age the same. Pre-washed, it doesn't shrink. It is the work shirt that found its place in town.
Cat's-eye buttons
The buttons are four-hole cat's-eye type, navy blue, tone on tone. The button placket is made in double thickness, with white topstitching that stands out against the indigo. These are military shirt details, chosen to withstand repeated buttoning.
Chain-stitched yoke, swallowtail vents
The front is assembled with a chain-stitch yoke, supple, as on US Navy shirts. On the sides, swallowtail vents set on an off-the-arm machine follow the movement. The cut, though, is contemporary: sharp shoulders, controlled length, no excess volume at the back or on the sides. The shirt is made in Morocco.
We are here to help you
Find here the answers to the most frequently asked questions to help you choose with confidence.
Our clothes are made from exceptional materials (Japanese selvedge denim, French wool from Tournier…) and assembled on vintage machines.
Every piece is designed to last, evolve and patinate over time. The fabrics are developed to our own specifications: we imagine our own weaves, then have them woven in the best mills in the world (Japan, France, Italy, Portugal, Morocco), often on old looms. This process can take up to a year to produce a new cloth.
It is this level of exacting standards that sets Champ de Manoeuvres apart.
