Since we know you’re super organized and always plan ahead, we’ve got you covered as you get ready for the new school year with a new addition to our shirt collection: meet Mel, the brushed cotton twill shirt.
Following the success of our Ralph shirts, we’re introducing a new fabric to our shirt collection: brushed cotton twill with an ultra-soft finish and a peach-skin feel.
A twill with a very distinctive weave, which gives it its unique character and that extreme softness we've fallen in love with.
Above all, Mel is part of our commitment to always offer you iconic, sustainably produced pieces that are made without overproduction and at a fair price.
Cheers,
Lucas & Séverin

The details
Warp and weft
What makes this fabric so special? It’s the unique weave of two different types of threads—the warp and weft threads—that creates the twill pattern we love so much! And this fabric is incredibly soft; you’ll be surprised by its unmatched comfort.
The ideal weight
Our twill shirt has a weight of 175 g/m², which is thicker than most Oxford shirts on the market! That’s what gives it that perfect drape and allows you to wear it either as a regular shirt or as an overshirt.
Made in forlife
The fabric for this shirt was designed especially for us! We were looking for a beautiful twill fabric with a specific weight, but our fabric supplier, Somelos, didn't carry it!
Perfect fit
A casual cut , fitted but comfortable, easy to wear for any occasion!
