485 Isosceles Shirt Cotton Diamondbone Bright Weld

A generous, relaxed fitting, button-front overshirt cut from a lightweight, softened cotton diamondbone in naturally dyed weld yellow. Features a shrunken collar, patch pockets at the waist, large extended darts that run from collar to cuff, and a flat hem. Initially cut square, the silhouette is shaped entirely by the darts lending a sense of weightiness to the sleeves that creates plush structure. Constructed using single needle, flat felled seams throughout for a long lasting, encased finish; oversized "jigger" buttons, typically used to reinforce a larger button, throughout.

The Cotton Diamondbone is similar to a traditional herringbone twill but bears both vertical and horizontal variation. The weave pattern produces a repeating diamond motif and leaves a dense, durable surface that remains pliable. Weld is a dyer's herb that has been used to produce a wide range of yellow tones since ancient times.

Natural dyes are living dyes. With wear, washing, and exposure to sunlight they will evolve and develop a rich patina. Use discretion when wearing with lighter coloured fabrics to avoid unwanted colour transfer.
