A cloth of French origin, it was adopted by the American working class before becoming the uniform of blue-collar workers, sailors and soldiers, then moved from the workshop to Hollywood without changing shape. Its construction is simple: an indigo-dyed warp thread crossed with an ecru weft, in plain weave, which gives that irregular blue shade. Our men's chambray shirt keeps that workwear logic, in a Japanese chambray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% cotton Japanese chambray, 9 oz, woven by Collect in Okayama\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook: vintage patina achieved without weakening the fibre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking: assembled on a vintage Union Special 37800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePockets: two rounded chest pockets, indigo cat's-eye buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Japanese cloth, made in Morocco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA chambray woven in Okayama\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cloth is a 100% cotton chambray, 9 oz, made in Japan by Collect on traditional looms in the Okayama region. It is a grade-A cloth, chosen for its hold. Its blue, bright at the start, has been patinated to give the effect of a shirt already worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA patina that took time\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe wanted to reproduce the look of an old shirt without damaging the material. Several formulas were tested, and the behaviour of the cloth was checked after many washes before we offered the shirt: that is what delayed its release. Let's be frank about the trade-off: a patinated cloth becomes more delicate. Wash it by hand, and it will last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSewn on an Union Special\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shirt is assembled on a vintage machine, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.unionspecial.com\/\"\u003eUnion Special 37800\u003c\/a\u003e, which gives the seams their relief. The two chest pockets are rounded, double-needle stitched, and reinforced with bar tacks at the opening. They close with cat's-eye buttons, dyed indigo, and keep a pen or a fountain pen within reach.
