FAQs
Is the sizing true to fit?
Yes, this shirt is designed with a regular fit, meaning it follows a standard size guide for a comfortable, non-oversized look.
Does the fabric become softer with age?
Absolutely. European Flax linen is known for becoming increasingly soft and comfortable as it is washed and worn.
Can I tumble dry this shirt?
It is not recommended. Air drying is the safest method to preserve the integrity of the flax fibers and prevent shrinkage.
What is the benefit of European Flax linen?
European Flax is a high-quality, sustainable fiber that is breathable, lightweight, and durable compared to synthetic alternatives.
Is the material see-through?
Due to the nature of linen, it may have a light translucency depending on the color, so layering is recommended if you prefer more opacity.
Troubleshooting
The shirt feels slightly stiff upon arrival.
Linen naturally softens after several washes and wear cycles; avoid using harsh softeners which can coat the fibers.
Excessive wrinkling after a day of wear.
This is a natural characteristic of linen; hanging the shirt in a steamy bathroom for 10 minutes can help relax the creases.
