Description

Overview

The chamois shirt is a workwear legend, made famous by American brands of decades past. The name “chamois” comes from the leather of the same name, a soft and suede-like leather from mountainous goats in Europe. The handfeel was so desirable that fabric-makers began to replicate it in a heavy-yet-soft brushed cotton.

To make our version, we found a vintage 70’s-era version and replicated the weight and handfeel with our mill in Portugal. At a beefy 9 oz. brushed cotton that will soften over time, you can wear it as an overshirt (consider creating a more generously-sized Blueprint) or all on it’s own.

The Black Chamois color is perfect for your favorite pair of jeans or try them with your olive chinos for a winter-ready look.

Our goal is to offer the best value in custom shirts by investing more of the shirt’s retail price in the actual garment, not in expensive marketing campaigns, splashy photoshoots or big brand markups.

And, we put our money where our mouth is. If our margins exceed 45%, we'll distribute the difference in store credit to our customers.

This is a bold fabric! Heavy like a very soft flannel but should age very well.
