FAQs
Is the linen sourced sustainably?
Yes, this shirt is crafted from premium European Flax sourced from Western Europe, known for its sustainable farming practices.
Does this shirt run true to size?
Yes, it features a regular fit that is designed to follow standard sizing conventions for a comfortable, classic look.
Can I iron this shirt?
Absolutely. Ironing while the shirt is slightly damp is the most effective way to achieve a crisp finish.
Will the shirt become softer over time?
Yes, high-quality linen is renowned for becoming softer and more supple the more it is washed and worn.
Is the black color prone to fading?
Like all dark natural fabrics, it is best to wash the shirt inside out and in cold water to minimize color fading over time.
Is the fabric sheer?
The black linen has a substantial weave that provides excellent coverage compared to lighter, pastel-colored linen variations.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels stiff after washing
Linen softens with use and repeated laundering; ensure you are using a liquid fabric softener or hang-drying the garment to improve texture.
Deep wrinkles are difficult to remove
Lightly mist the garment with water and use a steam iron; the moisture helps the flax fibers relax and smooth out more effectively.
Shrinkage noticed after cleaning
Linen can shrink if exposed to extreme heat. Always stick to cold or lukewarm water settings and avoid the tumble dryer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of your linen garment, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Air dry naturally on a hanger to reduce wrinkles and preserve the fiber structure. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage.
- Ironing: Iron while slightly damp using a medium-to-high heat setting to effectively remove deep wrinkles. Using a steam setting can also help soften the fibers.
- Storage: Store hanging in a cool, dry place to prevent deep creases from setting into the fabric folds.
