FAQs

What makes linen a good fabric for summer?

Linen is highly breathable and moisture-wicking, allowing air to circulate and heat to escape, which helps keep you cool and comfortable in warm weather.

How do I prevent my linen shirt from wrinkling too much?

While some wrinkling is natural, you can minimize it by washing on a gentle cycle, avoiding over-drying, and using a steamer or iron when the garment is slightly damp. Embracing a few wrinkles is also part of linen's charm.

Is this shirt suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, 100% linen is a natural, hypoallergenic fiber that is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin.

What does 'garment dyed' mean?

Garment dyeing means the shirt is sewn first, and then dyed. This process often results in richer colors and a softer feel compared to fabric dyed before construction.

How does the fit compare to other shirts?

This shirt features a relaxed fit, meaning it's looser and more comfortable than a slim-fit or regular-fit shirt, designed for ease of movement.

Where is this shirt made?

This shirt is manufactured in Portugal, known for its quality textile production.

Can I wear this shirt for formal occasions?

Due to its relaxed fit and linen material, it is best suited for casual to smart-casual occasions rather than formal events.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.

Linen is naturally prone to wrinkling. Try removing the shirt from the dryer promptly and smoothing it out, or use a garment steamer or iron on a medium setting while slightly damp.

Shirt feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. Repeated washing and wear will continue to soften the fabric.

Shrinkage after drying.

Avoid high heat when drying. Hang drying or tumble drying on a low setting is recommended. Check the care label for specific temperature guidelines.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This shirt requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear upon arrival.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, preferably, hang to dry to minimize shrinkage and creasing. Laying flat to dry can help maintain shape.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a medium heat setting while the garment is still slightly damp, or use a steamer to remove wrinkles. Avoid ironing directly over printed or embroidered details if present on other variants.
  • Storage: Store folded or on a hanger in a cool, dry place.
