Ames Workshirt - Handwoven Desert Acacia Plaid
Indi + Ash create extremely thoughtful garments, employing a variety of traditional manufacturing techniques and reinvesting profit into the artisans responsible for their production, as well as the communities they live in. From hand-weaving to hand-knitting, traditional dyeing methods, and atelier-style production, they work to create truly unique and beautiful pieces that highlight the skill and history of the craftspeople who make them. The Ames Workshirt is a more classic blue collar overshirt without all the western embellishments. Inspired by vintage Big Mac shirts, it's cut with a relaxed body and wide fit that can be easily layered over sweaters or even other button-down shirts. It features two wide bucket pockets at the chest, and everything closes up with tonal catseye buttons. It's made from Indi + Ash's handwoven cutch plaid herringbone, a soft yet sturdy fabric with a plush body and comfortable hand. With pattern-matching across the chest pockets, the different yarn colors are all achieved through different levels of cutch dyeing - cutch being derived from the heartwood of acacia trees and used to produce warm brown colors with subtle magenta tints or undertones at times. True to size with a relaxed, overshirt fit. Wash cold and hang dry. 100% cotton Handwoven herringbone twill Shadow plaid with pattern matching Natural cutch based dyes Tonal catseye buttons Gusseted side seams Two chest pockets Relaxed fit Custom labels Wash cold and hang dry Handmade in India
