Tender Shirt - Slate

The Tender Shirt in Blue Stripe is crafted from hand loomed seersucker cotton, giving it a textural quality that sets it apart from your typical button up. The original striped pattern has a slightly irregular, artisanal character that comes naturally from the hand looming process, making each piece feel unique. The puckered seersucker weave sits away from the skin, keeping things cool and breathable when the temperature climbs.

Cut with a boxy silhouette, the Tender Shirt looks just as good worn open over a tee as it does buttoned up on its own. A single chest pocket adds a clean, understated detail. It pairs effortlessly with wide leg shorts, pleated trousers, or relaxed denim, and the blue tones make it a versatile warm weather staple that moves easily between casual and slightly dressed up.

Handmade texture with an easygoing attitude.
