This light cotton was born in India, from where it was exported to Europe in the 17th century, and has served since to dress the great heat; from the Victorian era to the early 20th century, it was also used for bedding and summer nightshirts. In the United States, it is best known in blue and white stripes. This men's seersucker shirt keeps the tradition: fine sky-blue and white stripes, and the pucker that makes the whole cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% cotton seersucker, 135 g\/m², permanent pucker from the weave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStripes: sky and white, about 2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollar: button-down, 6.5 cm points, 4 cm collar stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButtons: genuine mother-of-pearl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: pre-washed, made in Morocco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA pucker that comes from the weave\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relief is not a finish. In weaving, some warp threads are held taut while others stay slack: the slack bands pucker, the taut bands stay flat. The pucker is therefore permanent, and it holds the cloth slightly away from the skin when it is hot. The cotton, at 135 g\/m², is pre-washed to stabilise the cloth. The stripes measure about 2 mm, in a pale, desaturated sky; the texture is what you read most. Here, the iron has nothing to correct.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA button-down collar and mother-of-pearl buttons\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe button-down collar has 6.5 cm points, buttoned at the front, and a 4 cm collar stand at the back for a clean line.
