Description

A mesh backed shirt experiment [#587] in the lightest possible Ventile. Supermarine Ventile is extra long staple cotton woven so densely that it becomes water resistant. This density creates a beautifully crisp, lightweight fabric, counterbalanced here by the use of powermesh on the back shoulders. The powermesh adds mobility and air permeability, the yang to Ventile’s sharply structured yin.
