Mustard. Not for everyone, but then who wanted to be like everybody else...?
This is no average linen shirt. This is a work of sartorial art. "Errrrr, it's just a linen stripe, mate." Fair enough, we can't argue with that, or can we…?
Handloomed, which means woven on a loom worked by hand rather than powered by a machine. That leaves a natural irregularity and a bit of air in the weave, so it breathes properly and only gets more relaxed with washing, making this shirt comfier and softer each time you wear it. Do we need to go on about the block printing...?
One thing worth knowing. Hand block printing on handloomed linen fades, and not evenly. That isn't a fault, it's what happens when a person prints cloth by hand rather than a machine doing it identically forever. Yours will look lived in from day dot, and better a year later.
Stripes from afar, art from up close.

Care
Care
Natural fibres are tough, but they don’t like being bullied by a 60°C wash or a harsh tumble dryer. Keep them looking sharp with these simple rules:
- Cool & Calm: Wash at 30°C or colder. High heat is the enemy of natural fibres and can cause shrinkage, brittleness, or colour loss.
- Wash Inside Out: Especially for printed fabrics. Protects the face of the fabric and keeps the colours vibrant.
- Slow Drying: Hang in the shade. The sun can bleach natural dyes over time.
- Easy Ironing: These shirts love a bit of steam. Don’t press them into submission. Treat your threads like an old friend.

Wondering how we made it?
What's the Doon process? Where do all these patterns come from (other than India, obvs)? How many steps are involved? Who is involved? How long does it take?
