The ultimate linen shirt
4 Min Read
It’s crisp and clean
Linen is, hands down, the most comfortable, versatile fabric for warmer weather. After all, a good linen shirt is lightweight and cool, and looks smart for almost any occasion: with shorts on the beach, sleeves rolled up or under a full, matching suit for a smart event. Plus, if you haven’t already met Douglas, you’ll want to. This is a shirt that’s a bit of an icon in the Morris collection. With its classic button-down collar, slightly rounded single cuff, 100% linen fabrication and cool, seasonal stripes, it’s an instant hit whenever, wherever, however you choose to wear it.
The ultimate fabric for summer
Linen is made from the flax plant. It is a crisp, clean and ultra-comfortable fabric that is both strong and durable. There’s also something luxurious and elegant – almost decadent – about linen, both in its feel, and because of its association with summer and warmer climates. Wear it with a casual suit (maybe even a linen one), jeans, chinos, shorts, or to the beach. We recommend fits that are on the more generous side for a more cooling, comfortable feel: a slim-fit linen shirt is just wrong. And don’t be shy of colours, stripes or checks – you’ll find plenty of them in the Morris collection.
