Weaving is a method of textile production in which two distinct sets of yarns or threads are interlaced to form a fabric. We offer a diverse range of weaves that can be used to make garments to suit different occasions.
Distinguished by its small geometric patterns using two or more colours, the dobby weave lends a luxurious feel to the fabric. The fabric is created using a special loom attachment and usually has a slightly raised weave texture rather than a smooth finish, making it less susceptible to wrinkles and more durable.
Lightweight and breathable, poplin is characterised by its tightly woven over-under weave pattern. This soft, lustrous and durable fabric has a classic, crisp appearance. It feels textureless, silky and soft to touch.
Even though the basket weave of the Oxford gives the fabric a slightly heavy texture, it still remains soft, breathable and durable. Often, a thread of a certain colour is crossed with a white thread to give the Oxford its signature checkerboard appearance.
In this complex weave, the arrangement of horizontal & vertical threads are staggered and have fewer interlaces, creating a silky, lustrous surface and a fabric that drapes beautifully, making satin shinier than the average weave. It has a very soft and smooth feel.
Soft, supple and airy, twill fabric weaves twin horizontal threads under and over vertical threads to create its easily distinguishable diagonal weave or texture. Twill fabrics almost always have a slight sheen, though the degree can depend on the colour & composition of the fabric used.
Herringbone takes its name from the V-shaped skeleton of a herring fish. The interlocking diagonal weave creates a bold, directional pattern that adds depth and a sense of craftsmanship.
Flannel is a soft, lightly napped woven fabric offering exceptional warmth and comfort. Crafted from fine cotton, it retains a relaxed, lived-in feel while remaining refined enough for smart-casual occasions.
Houndstooth features broken or jagged checks formed by intersecting dark and light yarns. A classic of British tailoring tradition, this timeless pattern brings structure and personality to a shirt.
Chambray alternates coloured warp yarns with white weft yarns in a plain weave, producing a subtly textured, muted appearance. Lightweight and breathable, it offers the casual appeal of denim with greater comfort.
Fil-à-Fil, also called End-on-End fabric is woven with threads in two different colours resulting in a dual-tone finish. This fabric appears to be a true solid color from a distance, but the details are more visible up-close. Lightweight and crisp, this fabric is a great alternative to standard fabrics.
Denim in shirting form is far lighter and more refined than its workwear counterpart. The characteristic indigo-dyed twill weave delivers a relaxed, casual aesthetic with excellent durability.
Jacquard looms produce intricately woven-in patterns of remarkable complexity. Unlike printed fabrics, the design is embedded within the structure itself, giving Jacquard shirts exceptional visual depth.
Single jersey is a lightweight knit fabric with a smooth face and a slightly textured reverse. Naturally stretchy and exceptionally soft, it offers a level of ease and comfort that woven fabrics rarely match.
Corduroy is defined by its distinctive raised ribs — formed by extra sets of fibre cut and combed into parallel cords. Warm, textural, and unmistakably tactile, corduroy shirts carry a relaxed autumnal character.
