Ecru Melange Brushed Cotton Flannel Shirt

Ecru melange is off-white with something warmer running through it, which is what stops a pale shirt looking clinical.

The cloth is an Italian-woven brushed cotton flannel, exceptionally soft and comfortable against the skin from the first wear. The shirt is cut to a regular fit and finished with a button-down collar and a patch pocket, so the front stays clean and casual. Nothing else has been added to it.

This is an easy everyday staple with a refined finish, which in practice means it will do a Saturday and a Monday without changing character. Wear it open over a T-shirt, or buttoned under a jumper when the mornings turn. The regular fit leaves room for both, and a pale shirt like this makes everything worn with it look deliberate.
