Fabric Story

A breathable, crisp and exceptionally light (90gsm) cotton poplin with a dry papery finish from the shirting masters at Albini in northern Italy. Woven with a combination of 96 singles and 100 two ply yarns using Albini’s rare (500 bale a year) Giza 87 extra-long staple Egyptian cotton from the Nile delta. It is given a special finishing process that gives it an extra dry touch and slightly uneven papery texture, while also helping keep the fabric structure open for a gentle breathability.
