Black Irish Linen Field Shirt

Our field shirt pattern is based on a vintage military jacket that we've been wearing for years. The aim was to create a silhouette that we could produce in a range of fabrics, with different seasons and functions in mind.

It's cut with a high armhole for comfort, straight through the body for easy layering, and with a full sleeve that can be rolled to the elbow—allowing plenty of room for movement. The collar can be flipped when needed.

It features two large angled chest pockets with buttons, a concealed front placket with an exposed top button, and an internal buttoned stash pocket. We’ve used horn buttons from Gloucestershire throughout. The shirt has been cut and sewn in London.

As with all our clothing, versatility is key. This shirt is designed to be worn with sleeves rolled in summer alongside a pair of shorts, or dressed up with loafers, chinos and a knit through the shoulder seasons.

This fabric is a 228g/m² black Irish linen. While initially crisp, it softens beautifully with wear. Black is an especially effective colour in linen, giving it an effortless quality that pairs well in informal settings. We see this worn with a white T-shirt and olive military fatigues or ecru jeans.
