Poplin is considered a ‘plain weave’ – but plain doesn’t mean dull. Our Summer Shirt 100% organic cotton cloth is poplin off! The densely woven criss-crossing of fine cotton thread makes the cloth strong, crisp and silky to the touch. It’s as soft as you can get a cotton shirt without mixing in synthetics.
It’s in the details
Organic cotton, completely plastic free.
Biodegradable and sustainable Corozo buttons.
Flat front and rear hem.
Single chest pocket with pen holder.

As in many parts of Britain, when the big brands moved to offshore manufacture, the highly skilled cutters and machinists lost their jobs – but they didn’t forget their skills. And now with new fire the dragon returns!
Within the next five years their aim is to bring experienced people back into the textile industry as well as training young people to join the workforce, all doing meaningful jobs that they can be proud of. We aim to support this great project with plenty of orders.
Ed wears a size M. He is 5′ 8, 10.5 stone.

I love paisley so it was a dead cert that I’d want one of these shirts. A very comfortable fit, loose but not too loose. Just what you need for warmer days.

Top shirt this one. Looks good, great fit, irons well too. Might have to go in for another colour if the weather picks up.

Lovely summer shirt, perfect fit, lovely and soft also goes well with a t shirt if it’s a bit chilly. Love the buttons they dress it down a bit and make it less formal and more summery , and it’s made over the hill from me just like my short sleeve denim shirt.

Lovely shirt. I bought it even though I didn’t like the buttons, because they are white on a lovely dark print and stand out like, well, white buttons that say HEY LOOK AT US WE ARE BUTTONS . I still don’t like the buttons, but I do like the shirt.
Maybe I’ll change the buttons.
