I’ve become very interested in the make up of this fabric. Like how are the two layers connected? Two warps facing outward and inward with interlacing wefts? Which layer has the poly and acrylic? I imagine a cotton indigo exterior layer that appears ind/ind that blends into a softer blended lining. Man I’ll bet this is a fantastic concoction.

This will help you understand the weaving technique.

As to which layer/face is which, we'll need to wait for one of the boys in the office to chip in.....

@Giles Thank you! I did some looking into it last night also and it's interesting stuff for sure. Looks like it can be done in many different ways as well.

I'll bet this'll be a special one. The exterior definitely appears to be 'denim' and looks like it has some fade potential and the inside seems like a soft tri-blend or something. I might have to go for it.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Gotta say, I'm also loving the measurements on these as well. Some of the other XLs have shoulders under 19" and it's def a squeeze.

[SamD]

@WhiskeySandwich Yes, you're correct - the outer face is woven from 100% Supima cotton, whilst the inner face is a polycotton blend. The exterior face is very denim-like and is pure indigo rope-dyed, so definitely expect it to fade. Breakdown for the complete piece of cloth is 75% cotton, 15% polyester and 10% acrylic. Hope that's helpful!

@SamD thank you! sounds lovely :the_horns:

[SamD]

@WhiskeySandwich It sure is! The photos don't really do it justice - it's definitely one of those fabrics you have to see and feel in the flesh to fully appreciate.

We've just put out a quick vid which should give you a better look at the weave and how it drapes, skip to around the 02:30 mark

[WhiskeySandwich]

@SamD Oh yeah, I'm all over it. good vid!

The fit and feel of this shirt is

Are the synthetic fibres used to add strength/durability? I love the look of this shirt, but have a skin sensitivity to synthetics (I become a funky sweat machine).

[WhiskeySandwich]

This is on the list but is going to have to wait a bit. Make sure yall are posting pics and thoughts, I wanna hear em!

[A Former User]

What are the thoughts on the fade potential of this fabric?

[AdamJ]

@dsco The face is indigo rope dyed so I'd expect to see some colour loss and evo over time with consistent wear

@WhiskeySandwich while we all wait for UPS to drop the shirt home, have a look at Brund DK Instagram feed for a great demo:
